Researchers use machine learning algorithm (originally developed for spam filtering) to analyze Hydra’s behavior. It can analyze behavior in real time and show how Hydra’s neurons respond to varying environments. To do this...
Scientists confirmed that the gas swirling at the upper atmosphere of Uranus contains hydrogen sulfide. The is the same gas that gives rotten eggs their odor. The study also indicates that the giant icy planets like Neptune and Uranus were formed...
The Kilopower project is not new; In October 2015, NASA started this project for nuclear reactor for space. As of September 2017, a test reactor has been built. The 6.5 feet tall reactor can generate up to 1 kilowatt of electric power. NASA has...
Scientists created Bose-Einstein condensate and configured it into a quick-expanding ring. This ring of ultracold atom exhibits features that resemble characteristics of an expanding universe. One can use it as a laboratory test bed for...
Moon had a very strong magnetic field, which gradually faded away with time. A new model suggests that the Moon’s magma ocean could be responsible for this lost magnetism. The magma ocean dynamos might have been a usual event in rocky...
A new type of electron microscope can capture how nanoparticles transform in real time. It provides dynamic, high-resolution, multi-frame videos of nanoparticles as they evolve. This could change how scientists design paints, lubricants, coating and...
In this age of technology, where data is more precious than oil, no one affects our life more than the silicon valley giant Google. Google is the brainchild of Larry Page and Sergei Brin, two doctoral students from the Stanford University. Its...
ESA’s Gaia has released the largest catalogue of stars with much greater precision. It contains precise motion and parallax of over 1.3 billion stars, as well as properties of other celestial bodies. Its data have been used to determine...
A new algorithm can discovery thermoelectric materials by solving quantum mechanical equations. It works by predicting material’s electronic transport properties. Using this method, experimentalists discovered a material that was both stable...
26th April was a big day for open-source OS lovers: Ubuntu released its 18.04 long term support (LTC) version, dubbed Bionic Beaver. It will be supported for next 5 years. This is a big change after Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. You won’t see any major...
Scientists build the most advanced superconducting camera, named DARKNESS. It will be used to detect small and faint exoplanets around the nearest stars. It can capture thousand of frames every second without making any errors like dark current or...
Diamonds can be bent, stretched and reformed to its original shape, if grown in tiny needle-like shapes. It could be stretched by as much as 9% without breaking. These results could open the new possibilities for diamond-based equipments. Diamond...
