Engineers made a new battery that works in a temperature range from -40°C to 120°C, and can be charged within 5 seconds. It can retain 91% of its capacity after 250,000 charge-discharge cycles. The battery is extremely flexible, bearing 10,000...
Most of the water on Mars is locked up as subsurface ice and in the rocks. Researchers discovered that Mars’ basalt rocks are capable to hold about 25% more water as compared to those on Earth. Approximately 9% excess volume of Martian mantle...
We all know that movies and television dramas (well, most of them) influence our society in a great way and vice-versa, but what about animated TV series or cartoons? Cartoons play an important role in the early development stages of the younger...
The world’s most famous theoretical physicists and cosmologist, Stephen Hawking is mostly known for his groundbreaking achievements in science, which includes Hawking radiation, Hawking energy, Gibbons–Hawking ansatz, Gibbons–Hawking...
Physicists have cooled down a nanoelectric chip to 2.8 milliKelvin, setting a world record. They used magnetic cooling techniques to reduce the temperature of chip and electrical connections. With some optimizations, the same technique could reach...
Boeings reveals a MQ-25 Stingray prototype, an unmanned carrier aviation air system. It has a wing-body-tail configuration with strike, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities. It will extend the combat range of fighter jets and...
Supercomputers use a big array of CPUs dedicated to processing large data units, but they lack in GPU power. They are much slower than ASICs in terms of processing hashes. The electricity cost of running a supercomputer would be more than the value...
The holy and joyous occasion of Christmas is once again upon us. Every year, millions of people all over the world celebrate the festival acknowledging the birth of Lord Jesus. Well, we all love Christmas but how much we know about the day anyway...
NASA tested a 3D printed hardware, named pogo accumulator, that absorbs vibration in rockets. 3D printing the hardware instead of manufacturing it reduces costs as well as production time. The aim of these tests is to evaluate the operation of...
Scientists developed a new material called diamene by compressing two graphene layers. Diamene is extremely thin yet harder than diamond under specific conditions. It will be used in developing wear-resistant protective coating and lightweight...
Medicines play an important role in our daily lives, imagining life without them is almost impossible, especially in this age of information where we don’t have much time to invest in our health. Without medicines, we wouldn’t have a...
Scientists put a roundworm’s (Caenorhabditis elegans) brain in a Lego robot. They mapped connections between worm’s 302 neurons and simulated them in software. IP address and port number are used to address each neuron. The brain is...
