Google's body browser
Google's new innovative service "body browser". This experiment will allow you to navigate through human body in 3D. You require a browser with a webGL support, currently webGL is supported only in the beta versions of the leading browsers. body browser homepage suggests users to download chrome beta. Even though a link to khronos.org is provided in the same page which lists all the browsers with webGL support. Is it a ploy to lure more users to adopt google chrome?

Indian Neutrino Observatory (INO) to boast world's biggest magnet
INO is setting up a neutrino observatory in Bodi West Hills Reserved Forest in the state of Tamil Nadu. This is the first of its kind in India. INO plans to study atmospheric neutrinos. The Hills selected for this observatory is a granite block which will help in shielding the muons. This observatory will have the largest magnet 50,000 tonne magnetized iron compared to 12500 tonne in CMS detector at CERN's LHC. INO is hoping that the observatory will also detect anti neutrinos as well.
