The era of space exploration brings with it a new risk: invasion. The peril comes not from little green men arriving on flying saucers but,…
Geologists from the UNIGE and Peking University have developed a technique that makes it possible to estimate the maximum size of a future super-eruption of…
Device can see around corners and through scattering media like fog and human tissue. Northwestern University researchers have invented a new high-resolution camera that can…
Intake of 4-6 total cups daily was associated with lowest risks. Drinking coffee or tea may be associated with a lower risk of stroke and…
This second untreated person living with HIV showed no evidence of intact HIV genomes in more than 1.5 billion blood and tissue cells analyzed. Ragon…
The new molecule can improve the yield of reactions for generating pharmaceuticals and other useful compounds. By mimicking photosynthesis, the light-driven process that plants use…
New mineral from Earth’s lower mantle surfaced as diamond inclusion; study led by UNLV geochemist Oliver Tschauner. UNLV geochemists have discovered a new mineral on…
The traps likely contain solid carbon dioxide that could be used to sustain robot or human presence on the Moon. After decades of uncertainty, researchers…
How are chemical elements produced in our Universe? Where do heavy elements like gold and uranium come from? Using computer simulations, a research team from…
A husband-and-wife team of astronomers at The University of Toledo established the star formation history of a post-starburst galaxy using its cluster population. A husband-and-wife…
Seismic activity could give scientists a read on the thickness of the ice encasing the moon and the oceans believed to lie beneath. Tidal stresses…
Looking at the ionized carbon emission from Sagittarius B provides critical information about star formation in our own galaxy and beyond. Sagittarius, or Sgr B,…
A promising new approach to potentially treat Alzheimer’s disease – and also vaccinate against it – has been developed by a team of UK and…
Extraordinary shape makes births more difficult, but guarantees stability. The relatively narrow human birth canal presumably evolved as a “compromise” between its abilities for parturition,…
Dozens of space-based telescopes operate near Earth and provide incredible images of the universe. But imagine a telescope far away in the outer solar system,…
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory designed a novel polymer to bind and strengthen silica sand for binder jet additive manufacturing,…
Human neurons have fewer ion channels, which might have allowed the human brain to divert energy to other neural processes. Neurons communicate with each other…
