The age of space tourism is coming soon, really soon and it’s only made possible by the herculean rise of private aerospace companies. Both SpaceX and Blue Origin have announced their plans to put people in space by the end of 2019. NASA has...
In 2016, the French government invested over $5 million in building a one-kilometer long solar road. The model has proven to be neither energy-efficient nor economically viable. The trial is now over, as the road has become cracked and damaged. ...
Researchers transform 20 entangled quantum bits into Schrödinger cat states. This breaks the old record of 14 qubits which was established in 2011. Such superimposed states could provide an important resource for various applications, ranging from...
Search engines have made it really easy to find information and buy products online, but have you ever stumbled upon a photo that looks familiar but you can’t recognize where it was taken or what actually it symbolizes? It happens to all of us...
Three physicists get a high-profile recognition, more than 4 decades after they came up with modern field theory – supergravity. Daniel Freedman, Sergio Ferrara, and Peter van Nieuwenhuizen have won $3 million Special Breakthrough Prize in...
Researchers built a new software program to make biological analysis easy. It processes large datasets automatically and enables interactive visualization, fast and precise alignment, and real-time fusion. Modern light microscopic methods —...
The Nobel Prize is widely regarded as the most prestigious award given for intellectual achievement in several categories. The prize is named after a Swedish chemist Alfred Bernhard Nobel, who invented numerous explosive including dynamite and held...
MIT researchers have designed an artificial neuron from superconducting nanowires. In theory, a simple circuit of such neurons can work as efficiently as the human brain. The network can carry out one hundred trillion synaptic operations per second...
A large number of specific types of particles (known as scalars) were created during cosmic inflation. If dark matter has any connection with these scalar particles, it may predate the Big Bang. About 85 percent of the mass of the universe is made...
The second World War has always been a hot topic for modern historians studying the prevailing political and economic structure of the contemporary world. Incidents such as nuclear detonations in Hiroshima and Nagasaki or the Battle of Stalingrad...
Chromatography is a technique of separating out different parts of a chemical mixture so that they can be analyzed individually. This physical method allows chemists to closely observe organic and inorganic compounds and figure out what they are...
