[ad_1] It is often said that we have not yet detected dark matter particles. This is not entirely true. We did not detect the particles that make up cold dark matter, but we did detect neutrinos. Neutrinos have mass and do not interact strongly with light, so they are a …

[ad_1] As feared, the 740-ton instrument platform collapsed yesterday at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico, falling on the giant radar dish below. Photos of the scene are revealing the extent of damage to the famous structure, known for contributing to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence and numerous astronomical discoveries. …

[ad_1] Kirsten Siebach has to persevere a little longer, waiting for her ship to arrive. That ship is in space and is carrying a rover called Perseverance to Mars. And Siebach, a Martian geologist at Rice University, is now one of 13 scientists recently selected by NASA to help run …

[ad_1] Long before we thought about rockets to bring science to space, humans have explored our world in a much gentler way. But in two new articles published this week, scientists reimagine this nostalgic technology as a way not only to keep an eye on Earth, but also as a …

[ad_1] F.or biologists have been practicing a kind of time travel for years. You can take a speck of human skin and, with the right genetic adjustment, turn its internal clock back until it becomes its embryonic self, stripped of its identity and ready to become virtually any part of …

[ad_1] Monash University geologists shed new light on Earth’s early history through their discovery that continents were weak and prone to destruction in their infancy. Their research, which is based on mathematical models, is published today in Nature. The Earth is our home and over its 4,500,000,000 (4.5 billion) year …

[ad_1] Credit: Public Domain CC0 Nucleation is a ubiquitous phenomenon that regulates the formation of droplets and bubbles in systems used for condensation, desalination, water splitting, crystal growth and many other important industrial processes. Now, for the first time, a new microscopy technique developed at MIT and elsewhere allows you …

[ad_1] The proof-of-concept study represents the first successful attempt to reverse the aging clock in animals through epigenetic reprogramming. Scientists activated embryonic genes to reprogram the cells of the mouse retinas. Approach to Inverted Glaucoma-Induced Eye Damage in Animals. The approach also restored age-related vision loss in aged mice. Work …
