Scientists discover Buckyballs in space
Bingo games players will no doubt be familiar with the Bucky balls we dish out every day, helping our members on their way to picking up some great prizes. Now it would seem that Bucky balls are not just a phenomenon exclusive to Earth!
That's because scientists have discovered a new variety of carbon molecules in space and decided to call them Buckyballs!
Buckyballs are a form of carbon and follow graphite and diamond as the third variety of its kind so far found in space. Astronomers picked up the phenomena using the Spitzer spectroscopy, which looks at the plantary nebula's infrared light.
Intergalactic Buckyballs
It probably comes as no surprise to Bucky Bingo fans to find that Buckyballs are quite literally out of this world. After all, some of the prizes we give away are Earth-shattering in their appeal.
For example, who wouldn't want to win an iPad? The gadget has just hit UK shores and is proving to be a hit with its web-browsing and movie-watching capabilities.
Indeed, the iPad is proving to be a fully interactive piece of gadgetry, and there's every chance people will be using it to play bingo games in the near future.
And why not? The machine's touch-screen technology literally brings players closer to the game, in return getting them within touching distance of the very best prizes Bucky Bingo has to offer.
So if you'd like to stay at the cut and thrust of technology, keep up-to-date with the space-aged Bucky Bingo!
