1- The most reviewed scientific event of the year, and will probably go down in history as the most important of this 2014, was the first landing on a comet: the Rosetta space probe launched by the European Union in 2004, after traveling 6,400 million miles since leaving Earth, reached the orbit of the comet 67 / P Churyumov-Gerasimenko and managed to position the Philae probe on its surface.
2-El 2014 was prodigy eclipses : was first shocking “Blood Moon” from April 15, when the Earth was placed between the Sun and the Moon and allowed to see it with a strong red coloration. Then came the “Ring of Fire” which is glimpsed from Antarctica; October 8 there was a second “Blood Moon”; and October 23 the Moon was placed between Earth and the Sun, leaving this as a “cookie bite”.
3-Among the most important facts for science, for humanitarian urgency and relevance was the outbreak and subsequent control work Ebola virus, which began spreading in late 2013. While health authorities say they will soon be controlled, and has become the deadliest outbreak of Ebola in all history .
4-Beneath the Temple of the Feathered Serpent found a sealed offering approximately 1,800 years ago, with more than 50,000 objects, including jade stones, shells, sea shells, pottery, sculptures, balls rubber, bones and remains of hair big cats, skeletons of beetles, pyrite disks, and 4,000 wooden items in perfect condition, among other things. A real time warp.
5-This year an international group of scientists attached to NASA developed a technique of “editing DNA” that managed to eradicate all traces of HIV in human cells. A breakthrough on the way to the ultimate cure of this disease.
