In science, we often say things like “all scientific results must be replicable.” If you have one researcher who says “I’ve measured the speed of light to be 3-million meters per second.” another ...

Corrections & clarifications: A previous version of the story misstated a measurement of Internet speed. We know what “slow” internet is like: videos buffer, downloads lag and a single page can take ...

If you’re experiencing a sluggish internet connection, it’s probably time to check the speed. We’ll show you several ways to measure the speed of your internet connection using on-board tools in ...

When Galileo's name comes up, most people think about his contributions to observational astronomy. However, he did lots of other stuff including investigating the speed of light. During his time, ...

But that depends on what you mean by WLAN performance. The performance (and here I assume you mean usable bandwidth to the internet at some random third party site) of your connection over wireless ...

Measuring speed with Arduino isn‘t something new, but the interesting part of this project that speed information is displayed on Flash application. Application has been built using Flex 4 and is ...

There’s a simple way to measure the speed of sound. It’s low tech and unimpressive, but you get to blast an air horn. How many times can you say that you’re using one for science and not sheer ...
