El fenómeno astronómico que despertó a los residentes de Puebla

Un resplandor acompañado de un estruendo en el cielo de Puebla y de otras entidades en el centro del país despertó a cientos de familias la madrugada del sábado.

Videos captados del momento e imágenes fueron comentados en redes sociales. Astrónomos del Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica (INAOE) descartaron que fuera un meteorito, debido a que es considerado así únicamente si impactan en la superficie de la tierra.

¿Qué fue lo que iluminó sobre la entidad poblana, Tlaxcala, y otros estados del centro de México?

El especialista José Ramón Valdés Parra explicó a medios locales y nacionales que se trató de un bólido, una bola de fuego que explota en el cielo.

“Los eventos luminosos causados por estos objetos menores del sistema solar se denominan meteoros y si su brillo es menor al de Venus, se llaman bólidos”, explicó.

Los hechos ocurrieron alrededor de las 02:00 (hora local) del sábado. Residentes de la ciudad de Puebla, que aseguran haber sido testigos, coinciden en que se trató de una luz que iluminó el cielo por unos segundos y después, se escuchó un estruendo. Usuarios de redes sociales también reportaron que se observó en la Ciudad de México y Tlaxcala.

Zopo Speed 8 benchmarked, all 10 cores of it

We met with the Zopo Speed 8 at MWC, and it was our first encounter with the Mediatek Helio X20 chipset, which boasts a 10-core CPU. We now have a final unit at the office for some more tinkering, and you can see how we might be eager to run some benchmarks to see what all the fuss is about.

Just a quick reminder, the Mediatek Helio X20 (or MT6797, for the more technically inclined) features a deca-core CPU with a couple of Cortex-A72 cores clocked at up to 2.3GHz, four Cortex-A53’s at 2.0GHz and another four Cortex-A53’s, which can can only go as high as 1.4GHz. On board the Speed 8 there…
