Scientists have determined that graphene could be put to use as the world's thinnest anti-...

It seems like the uses for graphene just won’t stop coming. The ultra-strong sheet material, made from bonded carbon atoms, has so far shown promise for use in transistors, computer chips, DNA sequencing, and batteries ... just to name a few possibilities. Now, scientists have discovered that it can also be used as a very effective anti-corrosion coating – and at just one atom in thickness, it’s thinner than any of the alternatives...

El Ayuntamiento de Madrid participará en la gestión de Barajas

Madrid.- La ministra de Fomento, Ana Pastor y la alcaldesa madrileña, Ana Botella, acordaron en el encuentro que mantuvieron ayer que el Ayuntamiento de Madrid forme parte de los Comités de Coordinación Aeroportuaria y de Coordinación de Franjas Horarias. Se da respuesta así a una reivindicación histórica del consistorio madrileño, nunca atendida hasta ahora.

La Ley de Capitalidad avala la petición municipal. En su artículo 37.1, la Ley establece que el Ayuntamiento participará en la gestión de infraestructuras, servicios y equipamientos que, siendo la titularidad de la Administración general del Estado, afectan directamente a la ciudad de Madrid. Y ese es el caso de Barajas.
