The Chinese space administration (CNSA) is neither the oldest nor the biggest space agency in the world but it’s about to achieve a feat that has been accomplished only by few in the past; establishing a fully functional global navigation...
A new theoretical model explains how did water come to Earth. Water on Earth may not have solely came from asteroid matter. Nearly 2% of Earth’s water originated from the solar nebula. The origin of water is a longstanding enigma...
New study links paternal age to birth risks. The risk is directly proportional to the age of the father: the older he is, the higher the risk. Babies born to fathers older than 35 are at a greater risk of adverse birth outcomes like seizures and...
Researchers found a new family of fish that resided in the ocean at the same time as the dinosaurs. They had sharp and pointed teeth like piranhas, which they used to chew off flesh from other fishes. Paleontologists continuously seek for...
In the next three decades, the air conditioning units will increase by almost 400% worldwide. This will contribute to hundreds of billions of tons of carbon dioxide emissions by 2050. By 2100, the use of air conditioners alone will increase the...
Between 1991 and 2016, Earth’s ocean absorbed 150 times more heat energy than the energy produced by humans as electricity annually. Oceans took up nearly 13 zettajoules of heat energy every year. Earth has more than 332,519,000 cubic miles...
In 2017 alone, Bitcoin emitted 69 million metric tons of carbon dioxide. If Bitcoin continues to grow at the same rate as other technologies, it could produce enough carbon dioxide emissions to push global warming above 2°C within 30 years. In...
It takes a tremendous amount of effort to make a game. A lot of things happen behind the curtains that we don’t get to know. If you see from programmers point of view, you’ve to create complex loops, select good graphics libraries, spend...
Social network analysis tools facilitate qualitative or quantitative analysis of social network by describing network’s feature either via visual or numerical representation. It generally uses network or graph theory to examine social...
Scientists revealed that shockwaves generated by heavy bombs used in World War II were detected at the edge of the space. These shockwaves were powerful enough to reduce the electron concentration of ionization in the upper atmosphere. Researchers...
Researchers evaluated the amount of gravity a human skeleton can bear without breaking or hurting muscles. According to their model, humans could survive a maximum gravity of approximately 5 g (or 49 m/s²). People who are healthy and have...
A base, in chemistry, refers to any substance that releases hydroxide ions (OH−) when dissolved in water or aqueous solution. Many bases, however, don’t readily carry hydroxide ions but they too produce high levels of OH− when treated with...
