Super Massive black hole in Milky way
Feb. 15 | Sagittarius A*–or Sgr A*, as it’s more commonly described–is a supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way. It’s big and bad, containing about 4 million times the mass of our sun. It’s also given to odd behavior;...
Mars had an ocean. Can we still dream of living on Mars?
Feb. 15 | The surface of Mars's northern hemisphere has long looked like it once contained an ocean. It now sounds real! A European spacecraft equipped with sounding radar that bounces radio waves off the Red Planet to investigate its makeup has identified...
Liquid metal that is not metallic ?
Feb. 11 | Have you watched the movie Terminator 2? Yes, then you should remember what arnold schwarzenegger, the robot said about the other machine from the future. Yeah thats the word, liquid metal. When melting sodium at high pressures, the material goes through...
Squeezing On Planets Outside Our Solar System
Feb. 11 | Just as graphite can transform into diamond under high pressure, liquid magmas may similarly undergo major transformations at the pressures and temperatures that exist deep inside Earth-like planets. Using high-powered lasers, scientists at Lawrence...
Gene Therapy Boosts Brain Repair for Demyelinating Diseases
Feb. 11 | Our bodies are full of tiny superheroes — antibodies that fight foreign invaders, cells that regenerate, and structures that ensure our systems run smoothly. One such structure is myelin — a material that forms a protective, insulating cape...
Proposed type of solar neutrino spotted
Feb. 10 | In a technical tour de force, physicists have spotted long-sought low-energy neutrinos zipping from the sun. The discovery confirms one of the first possible steps in the fusion cycle that helps power the star, says Cristiano Galbiati, a physicist at...
Reports to be given today by LHC for particle existence
Feb. 7 | Today the two main experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world’s most powerful particle accelerator, submitted the results of their latest analyses. The new papers boost the case for December’s announcement of a possible Higgs...
Human waste to power Robots!
Feb. 6 | Every machine that runs on a battery need to recharge, be it from an electric shaver to ipod. Do we have a way to make this go away. Well, I cant assure for every machine but surely the future robot generation will be free from this hassle. Tomorrow’s...
Astronomers Use Kepler Spacecraft to Search for Earth-size satellites
Feb. 6 | Astronomers have discovered a trove of exoplanets—more than 700 worlds in orbit around distant stars, with leads on thousands of additional suspects. So now, naturally, they're beginning to ask: What moons might be in orbit about these planets? It...
