But it appears these views are – if you’ll excuse the pun – a bit warped. Four students from the University of Leicester have used Einstein’s theory of Special Relativity to calculate what Han and Chewie would actually see as they made the jump to hyperspace.  <a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/hyperspace-travel-look-like/25794/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div>   <div class="summary_item " data-article="25792"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="vsmall" href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/homeentertainment/" style="float: left; ">HOME ENTERTAINMENT</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/sony-prototype-56-inch-4k-oled-tv/25792/">Sony goes one (inch) better with "world’s first 56-inch 4K OLED TV"</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/author/darren-quick/">Darren Quick</a></div> <div class="date">January 14, 2013</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/sony-prototype-56-inch-4k-oled-tv/25792/pictures">2 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/sony-prototype-56-inch-4k-oled-tv/25792/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116181600im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/sony-56-inch-oled.jpg" title="Sony's prototype 56-inch OLED TV boasts 4K (3,840 x 2,160) resolution" alt="Sony's prototype 56-inch OLED TV boasts 4K (3,840 x 2,160) resolution"/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> When Sony showed up to CES 2012 with a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/sony-crystal-led-display/21056/" target="_blank">Crystal LED prototype TV</a> rather than an OLED TV like its rivals <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/samsung-super-oled-tv/21055/" target="_blank">Samsung</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/lg-worlds-largest-oled-hdtv-ces-55-inch/20981/" target="_blank">LG</a>, it prompted reports that Sony was abandoning OLED TVs aimed at the consumer market. The company might finally have put paid to these reports by displaying a prototype OLED TV at this year’s CES. And in the spirit of one-upsmanship, Sony is touting the prototype TV as the “world’s first and largest 56-inch 4K OLED TV.”  <a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/sony-prototype-56-inch-4k-oled-tv/25792/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="25777"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="vsmall" href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/researchwatch/" style="float: left; ">RESEARCH WATCH</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/threadlike-carbon-nanotube-fiber/25777/">Threadlike carbon nanotube fiber combines strength, flexibility and conductivity</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/author/darren-quick/">Darren Quick</a></div> <div class="date">January 13, 2013</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_comments"><a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/threadlike-carbon-nanotube-fiber/25777/#comments">7 Comments</a></div> <div class="has_pictures"><a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/threadlike-carbon-nanotube-fiber/25777/pictures">7 Pictures</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/threadlike-carbon-nanotube-fiber/25777/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116181600im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/threadlike-cnt-fiber.jpg" title="Two strands of the new CNT fiber support and supply current to an LED bulb" alt="Two strands of the new CNT fiber support and supply current to an LED bulb"/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> At about 100 times the strength of steel at one sixth the weight and with impressive electrical conductive properties, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have promised much since their discovery in 1991. The problem has been translating their impressive nanoscale properties into real-world applications on the macro scale. Researchers have now unveiled a new CNT fiber that conducts heat and electricity like a metal wire, is very strong like carbon fiber, and is flexible like a textile thread.  <a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/threadlike-carbon-nanotube-fiber/25777/" class="readmore_link">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item " data-article="25749"> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> <a class="vsmall" href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/health/" style="float: left; ">HEALTH AND WELLBEING</a> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/hair-cell-hearing-restoration/25749/">Researchers restore hearing in mammals by regenerating auditory hair cells</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <div>By <a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/author/darren-quick/">Darren Quick</a></div> <div class="date">January 10, 2013</div> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <div class="has_comments"><a href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/hair-cell-hearing-restoration/25749/#comments">13 Comments</a></div> </div> </div> </div> <a class="noback hero_link" href="/web/20130116181600/http://www.gizmag.com/hair-cell-hearing-restoration/25749/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130116181600im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/hearing-restored.jpg" title="Researchers have regenerated auditory hair cells in adult mammals for the first time (Imag..." alt="Researchers have regenerated auditory hair cells in adult mammals for the first time (Imag..."/></a> <div class="summary"> <p> There is new hope for those of us who have overindulged in loud bands and dread the prospect of old age spent with an ear trumpet clamped to the sides of our heads.
