9、t 3.7 billion per day.All those pixels(像素) take up a lot of room if they are stored on personal computers or phones,which is one reason why many people store their images in the cloud.But unlike a hard drive which can be encrypted(加密) to protect its data,cloud storage users have to trust that a tech

12、rs images.So the Columbia researchers came up with a system called Easy Secure Photos(ESP),which they presented at a recent conference.“We wanted to see if we could make it possible to encrypt data while using existing services,” says computer scientist Jason Nieh,one of the developers of ESP.“Every
13、one wants to stay with Google Photos and not have to register on a new encrypted-image cloud storage service.”To overcome this problem,they created a tool that preserves blocks of pixels but moves them around to effectively hide the photograph.First,ESPs algorithm(算法) divides a photograph into three
14、 separate files,each one containing the images red,green or blue color data.Then the system hides the pixel blocks around among these three files(allowing a block from the red file,for instance,to hide out in the green or blue ones)But the program does nothing within the pixel blocks,where all the i

30、ned.He spent a great deal of time studying and fixing engines.After school he joined the Canadian army where he learned to fly many different types of planes.Chris did a lot of research for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) in the United States and had special training.Finally,
31、in 1995,he rode his first rocket into space.Chris became the first Canadian astronaut to walk in space,and went on a number of space missions throughout his career.The most memorable was his five-month stay on the International Space Station(ISS) as commander,between December 2012 and May 2013.He po
32、sted on social media thousands of photos of Earth and videos of himself explaining how things work in zero gravity.His followers could watch him sleeping,brushing his teeth,washing his hands,or preparing “space” snacks in zero gravity,which turned him into a social media phenomenon.Today,Chris trave

39、olymer Engineering,has a method to reduce such waste and clear a scientific pathway to a more sustainable future that can appeal to the rubber,tyre,automobile and electronics industries.The problem at hand:Synthetic polymers,including rubber and plastics,are used in nearly every aspect of daily life
40、.The advantage of synthetic polymers lies largely in their excellent stability and various mechanical qualities.However,due to their high durability,waste materials made of these polymers have accumulated in the land and oceans,causing serious concerns for the ecosystem.A promising method to tackle
41、the challenges in plastics sustainability is to replace current polymers with recyclable ones in order to achieve a circular use of materials.The key in the design of chemically recyclable polymers is to identify the right monomer.Through careful computational calculation,the researchers identified
42、a targeting monomer.They then prepared the monomer and polymers through chemical synthesis,using abundantly available starting materials.Wangs research group,including polymer science graduate students and a postdoctoral scientist,aims to develop polymers that can be broken down into their component
43、s.When the element for breaking them down is absent or removed,the polymers will be highly stable and their thermal and mechanical qualities can be tuned to meet the needs of various applications.“The chemically recyclable polymers we developed show excellent thermal stability and mechanical qualiti
