Researchers from the University of Greifswald and the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) in Heidelberg (both in Germany) have developed a prototype experimental setup that simulates flow properties using
Scientists have achieved a breakthrough that could revolutionise space exploration with a “smart” metal alloy that remembers its shape even in the bone chilling cold of outer space. This remarkable
Astronomers have seen exoplanetary systems at almost every stage, from extremely young to older than the Solar System. But now, they’ve spotted the exact moment when planet formation is initiated
A Chinese team presents a new model for accurately predicting the performance of Sterling engines, which are being investigated as a possible means of powering
Our first meeting was a bit awkward. One of us is an archaeologist who studies how past peoples interacted with their environments. Two of us are geophysicists who investigate interactions
The rapid rise in global rocket launches could slow the recovery of the vital ozone layer, says Sandro Vattioni. The problem is being underestimated—yet it could be mitigated by forward-looking,
NASA has discovered that 7 out of 10 astronauts returning from the International Space Station have been unable to see clearly, with vision problems that can last for years! As
Astronomers found evolutionary links that connect three well-known star clusters. The Orion Nebular Cluster, the Pleiades, and the Hyades are located roughly in the same region in space, but have
Lunar regolith is the crushed up volcanic rock that buries the surface of the Moon. Remote observations and sample analysis have shown there are trace amounts of water ice mixed
