Scientists build a consistent, accurate numeral model of the yearly water cycle on Mars.  They’ve included all minor parameters that affect Mars hydrological circulation.  They’ve also measured the atmospheric distribution and density of clouds formed by tiny ice crystals. Water on Mars was detected more than 50 years ago. Later, it was scrutinized by several space missions, ...

For more than a century, NASA has been exploring the universe while developing critical advances in aerospace and technology. The world’s leading space agency has landed humans on the moon, rovers on Mars, sampled the atmosphere of Jupiter, explored Mercury and Saturn and even recorded the data from Pluto – to name a few. Some ...

Football (not the American one) without a doubt is the world’s most popular form of sports. It is played in over 200 nations and by 265 million professional players. Often mentioned as “the beautiful game”, football almost always offers a great level of excitement and thrill. The only thing that is as exciting as a ...

The Facebook AI research team builds a universal music translation network.  It replicates the audio it hears and plays it back in various styles, genres and instruments.  It can process unheard musical sources, like claps or whistles, and produce high-quality audio. When it comes to music, humans have always been creative in replicating songs and ...

The new deep learning system teaches a robot how to perform specific tasks by observing humans.  It observes human actions and uses an image-centric domain randomization method to generate human-readable programs.  Then robot executes these human-readable programs in n number of steps.  Machine learning methods are already being used in several areas, from space exploration [to ...

RoSE is a dynamic spine brace that characterizes the 3 dimensional stiffness of the human torso.  It identifies and treats spinal deformities. The system consists of 12-degree-of-freedom supervised via 12 motors. Spinal deformities, like kyphosis and idiopathic scoliosis, are abnormalities of formation and alignment of the curvature in the spine. There are more than 4 million cases ...

Researchers discover a method that allows water-repelling surfaces to boil water effectively under certain conditions. It makes these surfaces stay cooler than water-attracting surfaces. Hydrophobic surfaces can be used to cool high power electronics and nuclear reactors. Many industrial applications like high-density cooling, water distillation and power generation depend on efficient heat transfer processes that involve ...

If you are looking to theme your device, look no further than Substratum – a fully functional theme engine for Android interface. It’s a combination of Layers and CyanogenMod (earlier theme engine) that provides additional benefits, like no reboot required each time you change the theme, also it warns you when themes get outdated. To use Substratum, ...

Quantum computers are not supposed to check your emails, update status, or do normal software/hardware tasks. Instead, they are based on something more complex – Quantum Mechanics. Quantum computer deals with particle much smaller than the size of atom. At such smaller scale, rules of physics do not make any sense. This is where exciting ...

The new AI can precisely estimate biological age and major risk factors related to health.  It analyzes data collected by smartphones and wearable devices. Developers have released an app that observes how your daily activity pattern affects your life expectancy.   Many biological factors like gene expression, DNA and blood circulation levels show close correlation with age. ...

The massive stars in the universe are either red hypergiants or red supergiants; in extreme cases, they are more than 1,500 times bigger than the Sun. But what about the smallest stars? Are there stars smaller than our Sun? Well, actually there are. The smallest stars in the universe are generally the tiny (astronomically speaking) ...

Scientists used high sound waves to levitate water droplets to identify impurities in water.  This technique helped them to detect small scale heavy elements like cadmium and barium, within few minutes.  It could be used by pharmaceutical, agricultural and other industries for water analysis. Researchers at the Instituto de Ciencias Físicas UNAM, Mexico have levitated ...
