According to Taiwan's United Evening News, after 20 years of research, the National Central University in Taiwan has developed the world's lightest and smallest "space cube". The cube can detect energy in nature, as well as accurately predict the impact of the sun on the earth and the release of seismic energy before earthquakes.

The "space cube", 10 cubic centimeters in volume and 4 kilograms in weight, is expected to visit space with a satellite next spring. It will be Taiwan's first self-made scientific device boarded onto a satellite.
