The most distant world ever explored 4 billion miles away finally has an official name: Arrokoth.That means “sky” in the language of the Native American Powhatan people, NASA said Tuesday.NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft flew past the snowman-shaped Arrokoth on New Year’s Day, 3 ? years after exploring Pluto. At the time, this small icy world 1 billion miles (1.6 billion kilometers) beyond Pluto was nicknamed Ultima Thule given its vast distance from us.“The name ‘Arrokoth’ reflects the inspiration of looking to the skies,” lead scientist Alan Stern of Southwest Research Institute said in a statement, “and wondering about the stars and worlds beyond our own.”The name was picked because of the Powhatan’s ties to the Chesapeake Bay region.New Horizons is operated from Johns Hopkins University’s Applied Physics Lab in Laurel, Maryland. The Hubble Space Telescope — which discovered Arrokoth in 2014 — has its science operations in Baltimore.The New Horizons team got consent for the name from Powhatan Tribal elders and representatives, according to NASA. The International Astronomical Union and its Minor Planet Center approved the choice.Arrokoth is among countless objects in the so-called Kuiper Belt, or vast Twilight Zone beyond the orbit of Neptune. New Horizons will observe some of these objects from afar as it makes its way deeper into space.___The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives 1436

Technology used at South Florida grocery chain is taking online grocery shopping to the next level. The sound of plastic bins flying around on a conveyor belt is music to Javier Herran's ears. “I refer to it as a symphony of chaos,” Herran says.The well-oiled machine does all the grocery shopping for you. “It’s basically a giant vending machine,” Herran describes. Except this vending machine can hold over 100,000 items for Sedano's supermarkets’ new online ordering platform. “This is the first automated micro-fulfillment center in the world,” explains Curt Avalon with Takeoff Technology, the company that developed the robotic system. Instead of an employee walking through a store to manually gather the items in an online order, the machine does all the work. It travels through a system of conveyors and elevators, bringing the shelves to the employees. "So we can pick an item in about three seconds, where if you're shopping on the sales floor, its 60 to 90 seconds an item,” Avalon says. That efficiency is what sold Herran, who is Sedano's marketing director. "We can get an order done in 10 minutes or less versus an hour or hour and a half shopping on the sales floor," Avalon says. Finished orders are taken to an online pickup area in Sedano’s various stores for customer’s to pick up. The robot isn’t replacing human jobs. Sedano's says it’s actually adding jobs, since the warehouse must be manned. 1433

The dreaded parking ticket: You see them placed on vehicles all the time. But Washington, D.C. residents may starting seeing more — from their neighbors, not just traffic officers.Councilman Charles Allen created the idea of DC's citizens handing out tickets. About 80 people around the district would be trained and certified to issue tickets, and use a mobile app to take a photo of the violation. The ticket would be issued in the postal mail."When someone is creating an immediate safety hazard there needs to be a consequence," Allen said. "So having the ability to have more essentially enforcement take place, all those little violations that are happening all the time, that impact our safety, that make our streets less safe — to be able to have enforcement be magnified is part of having safer streets."Residents aren't so sure about the idea. Some think the idea of a citizen giving another a ticket could create violence. Others say they like that council members are at least trying to think of a plan to help with parking woes in the nation's capital.If passed, the plan would go through a trial period. The idea is part of a larger bill to make streets safer after a series of deadly crashes involving pedestrians and cyclists. The proposal includes decreasing speed limits, adding new sidewalks and bike lanes as well as better crosswalk markings.A vote is not expected until later this year. 1420
