Top panel shows a wide-angle view of the main nucleus of the crumbling asteroid P/2012 F5 and smaller fragments embedded in a long dust trail. Bottom panel shows a close-up view with the trail removed ...
To demonstrate the system, the researchers showed that it could reconstruct real-time high-quality still images of a model jet engine rotating at about ∼2170 rpm (top images) and a CPU cooling fan ...
Objects rotating at high speed are a feature of modern engineering in various fields, and online inspection of them is a critical challenge. A project at China's Jinan University has now developed a ...
High-speed 3D printing has just gotten a lot faster. Researchers from Tsinghua University in China have developed a new high-speed printing technology capable of creating complex millimeter-scale ...
Using data from NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope, scientists have identified the three fastest-spinning brown dwarfs ever found. More massive than most planets but not quite heavy enough to ignite like ...

A newly discovered asteroid has shattered speed records, completing a full rotation in just 112 seconds, faster than any ...
The first part of your question — how stellar objects reach millisecond spin periods — involves two concepts. First, the object needs to be small, since no material can move faster than the speed of ...
