A team of researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago, Syracuse University and the University of Pennsylvania, has developed a means for showing how a certain piece of material wrinkles after it has been flattened. In their paper published in the j…

How will we grow food in space? That’s one question Michigan State University’s Federica Brandizzi has been particularly interested in solving. Brandizz

Researchers have found a new mechanism that fundamentally alters the interaction between optically levitated nanoparticles. Their experiment demonstrates previously unattainable levels of control over the coupling in arrays of particles, thereby creating a ne…

Does rapid eye movement during sleep reveal where you're looking at in the scenery of dreams, or are they simply the result of random jerks of our eye muscles? Since the discovery of REM sleep in the early 1950s, the significance of these rapid eye movements …

Next Monday's Artemis launch will be an uncrewed first flight, headed into orbit around the moon. Yet technology previously worn by ESA astronauts on the International Space Station has also been hard-mounted aboard the NASA-ESA Orion module.

After overcoming numerous technical delays and a global pandemic, the launch now faces its most intractable challenge to date - the weather

A chromosome-level genome assembly for the rice pest, Chlorops oryzae, pinpoints molecular pathways that might contribute toward increased outbreaks for this important crop pest.

Crops and other plants are often under attack from bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. When a plant senses a microbial invasion, it makes radical changes in the chemical soup of proteins…

For the first time in 50 years, a spacecraft is preparing to launch on a journey to the moon. The Artemis I mission, including the Space Launch System Rocket and Orion spacecraft, is targeting liftoff on August 29 from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. …

The team wanted to keep the helicopter warmed up for future use, so the 30th flight was a quick hop similar to flight number two.

How much information do you have about the Sun? NASA and other international space agencies monitor the Sun 24x7 with a fleet of spacecraft, studying everything from its atmosphere to its surface, and even peering inside the Sun using special instruments. Her…

The newest discovery made by NASA’s Perseverance Rover on Mars reveals that even though it may be referred to as the Red planet, it has some green in it too, reveals a report by TweakTown.  NASAResearchers from Purdue University have an…

A group of international researchers has uncovered evidence of a super rare genetic condition that gives men an extra X chromosome, reporting the oldest clinical case of Klinefelter syndrome to date.

Self-pleasure, that is.

Researchers compiled data from several telescopes to show that explosive stellar death can generate some of the fastest particles in the universe.

If the outward flight went marvelously well for the crew, who reached the station on time, the return today poses more difficulties. At the time, on May 2, no
