Researchers demonstrate a 16-bit microprocessor consisting of over 14,000 carbon nanotubes. It is capable of running all formats and types of instruction in the RISC-V instruction-set architecture. The entire computer industry is currently based on...
The first full-scale, self-propelled car was built by Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot in 1769: it was a steam-powered tricycle. A variety of steam cars were then built during the first half of the 19th century. In 1886, a German engineer invented the first...
Researchers prove that dead human bodies move around significantly as they decompose. As the body mummifies, the ligaments dry out, which causes parts to move. They captured these movements over a 17-month period. The human body is perhaps the...
The new thermoelectric device can produce electricity at nighty by harnessing the dark, cold environment. In the initial proof of concept demonstration, it produced 25 milliwatts of energy per square meter, which is enough to power a small LED. ...
From classical antiquity to much of the early modern period — when there were no hard-written criminal laws — brutal tortures were a common method to serve punishments. During the middle ages, committing a crime wouldn’t have...
Researchers propose a new methodology to develop a periodic table for molecules with different types of symmetries. This new approach is strongly supported by many quantum mechanical calculations and various existing molecules. In 1869, a Russian...
The new ultra-black material absorbs more than 99.995% of incoming light from all angles. It is 10 times darker than Vantablack, the previous record holder for darkness. In 2014, scientists created the world’s darkest material capable of...
String theory says that indivisible subatomic particles are made of tiny little strings vibrating in a specific pattern. Each vibrational pattern corresponds to a different particles. Electron is nothing but a string vibrating in one pattern, and a...
The calculators we know today were first invented in the 1960s and the use of smartphones as calculators began in the 1990s. However, that does not mean that mathematical tools weren’t available a century ago. Several computing machines were...
Have you ever wondered who the most powerful Marvel characters are? As an MCU fan, I am sure you do. But to be frank it is a herculean task to answer. The list below ranks the most powerful comics characters based on their raw power and intellect...
Researchers analyze recorded cigarette sales and survey data in England between 2011 and 2018. They found that overall consumption of cigarette has declined by almost 1/4th during this period. Government has committed to making the United Kingdom...
