Rubik’s cube is more than a puzzle- it’s a question waiting to be answered. And when the right person finds the right question, it can set them on a journey to change the world. We salute Ernő Rubik and everyone helping young minds find the questions that challenge, excite, and let them see the world in a new way.

On this week’s Ignition, Carlos Lago has a second go at Porsche’s 918 hypercar. The goal: to run the 918 through the full gauntlet of MT’s instrumented testing, including 0-60, quarter mile, braking, figure 8, and a blistering real-time hot lap around Big Willow race track with pro driver Randy Pobst. Carlos also gets a rare chance to experience the 918’s ancestor, the Porsche 959. The 959 was a remarkable piece of automobile history that was decades ahead of its time with much of it’s technology only appearing in common vehicles within the last ten years or so. The 918 attempts something very similar, featuring very advanced technology, including a naturally aspirated V8 that works with a seamlessly integrated electric motor to provide extra boost. Can Porsche’s new hypercar achieve the same effect that its predecessor did? Only time will tell, but stay tuned for the record-breaking review.

Classroom is a new, free tool coming to Google Apps for Education that helps teachers easily and quickly create and organize assignments, provide feedback, and communicate with their classes. This video highlights the experiences of some of the teachers and students who gave us feedback to help develop Classroom. Learn more: http://google.com/edu/classroom
Thank you to the millions of passionate teachers who inspire curiosity in their classrooms…lesson after lesson, unit after unit, year after year. We’re fortunate to have had many of you in our lives, and we can’t wait to see what the future will bring because of the work you’re doing today.
If you’re curious about exploring space (inside the classroom or on your own), here are a few shortcuts to the free tools in this video:

Astronomers at the Space Telescope Science Institute have devised a new technique that allows the +Hubble Space Telescope to more accurately measure distances to stars within our galaxy – up to 10 times farther than previously possible using a method known as parallax.
Parallax is the most reliable method for directly measuring distances to stars within our galaxy. It uses the geometry of the Earth’s orbit around the Sun to see tiny, almost imperceptible shifts of background stars behind the object being measured.
Previously this technique was only effective for distances up to 750 light years. Anything further away and we couldn’t see the background stars shift; the change was too small.
This new capability allows astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope to measure parallax distances up to 7,500 light years away – an astonishing increase in precision of a factor of 10!
Please join us as +Tony Darnell and +Scott Lewis discuss this new technique with Dr. Adam Riess, winner of the 2011 Nobel Prize in Physics and Dr. Stefano Casertano, the developers of this new ability for #Hubble .
