Apple silicon chips | The M family.

Computers are made just like the human body. In the human body, the brain controls everything, handles every type of pressure occurring, and process the inputs and output it. Exactly like that the processor in computer plays or played a huge roll from the beginning of computers. Without a processor, the computer is like a human without a brain. 

Nowadays there are various types of processors, as well as various large scale companies manufacture those. Simply the process of the processor is to handle the input - process them - Output it. So some examples for such companies are Intel, Nvidia, Apple and AMD. 

When we take the most popular chip set Intel, For instance Intel has been founded in 1968 and been serving Windows and Apple devices since. Intel has 3 technologies named Intel single core, duo core and Quad-core. 

But today's topic is not Intel, it is Apple M chips. 
So when we take the history of Apple, from the beginning they manufactured Laptops and Computers named Macbooks, powerbooks (Laptops) and Imacs (Desktop computers). For manufacturing these, they used PowerPC processors for 11 years until they took a shift to Intel processors. So after 15 years meaning upto 2020 they used Intel chips and the last macbook to come with Intel chips was the Intel based Macbook pro. So what was next? The all powerful Apple silicon chips, or more detailed, the M1 chip. So before going any further here is an extra fact, 

Apple used the "A" family chipsets for Iphones and Ipads. Upto now the latest Iphone 13 has the A15 bionic chipset.

On the November 2020 event, Apple introduced their new chip set for the Macbooks named the M1 chip then later at the October 2021 event they introduced their all new powerful M1 pro and M1 max, both incredibly fast and powerful. The first Macbook to come up with M1 pro and M1 max is the 2021 Macbook pro.

Then later on they introduced M1 Ultra which is the fastest chip for a personal computer and Mac Studio is the one and only device which came with it. 
After the M1 Ultra the, 2020 beginning M1 family ended and obviously the M2 family began. Like the previous family Macbook air totaly redisigned was the first notebook to come with the M2 chip first which was unveiled in the March event.

So up to the compares,

Intel Xeon and Intel i9 are the flagships of intel and were used by Apple inc. in the manufacture process of macbooks until they took the turn to Apple silicon chips.

NDK Astronomy | Mars landing by NASA.

NDK Astronomy                   The mars landing by NASA. Resently 18/2/2021 National aeronutics and space adminstration launched a space rover for the red planet, Mars.  A Mars landing is a landing of a spacecraft on the surface of Mars. Of multiple attempted Mars landings by robotic, unmanned spacecraft, ten have had successful soft landings. There have also been studies for a possible human mission to Mars, including a landing, but none have been attempted.  The most recent landing took place on the 18 of February 2021 by the NASA rover  of 2021, all methods of landing on Mars have used an   aeroshell   and   parachute   sequence for   Mars atmospheric entry   and descent, but after the parachute is detached, there are three options. A stationary lander can drop from the parachute back shell and ride   retrorockets   all the way down, but a   rover   cannot be burdened with r...
