Many retirees work during retirement, some by choice following a passion and others by necessity to put food on the table and a roof over their heads. Increasingly it’s the latter group that is growing faster.
A revolutionary aircraft could fly passengers to Australia in four-and-a-half hours, or into the stratosphere in 15 minutes, after a £250m plan by a British inventor received the backing of the chancellor, George Osborne.
China's space probe Chang'e-2 has flew to an outer space about 50 million km from the Earth, marking a new height in the nation's deep space exploration, Chinese scientists said on Sunday.
Research scientists at the University of Cambridge have developed electrical wiring from carbon nanotubes that is much longer than ever before. They developed a system where the wire is “spun” from a reactor that looks like cotton candy, allowing the
A space elevator based on carbon nanotube (CNT) cables is one of those ideas from 1950s-style futurism that are so whacky they might just work.
North Carolina State University researchers have developed multiple 3D printing techniques that create free-standing structures with drops of liquid metal. One technique involves stacking droplets of liquid metal on top of each other, which adhere to
This symbiotic approach to growing food was practiced by ancient peoples like the Aztecs.
The Hubble Space Telescope‘s keen eye has revealed a previously undetected moon orbiting Neptune. The July 1, 2013 discovery , 24 years after Voyager 2 swung by the icy-blue giant, expands the known retinue of circling moons to 14.

In an experiment that could be described as a science fair exhibit on steroids, researchers from Australia and the United States have created a model explaining the geophysical processes .....
Scientists often detect a series of small earthquakes just before a volcanic eruption and a new study published in the Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research has shown that these tremors ......
NASA reports it has successfully tested the first-ever 3D printed rocket component, demonstrating a technology that could eventually lead to more efficient manufacturing of rocket engines.
Jason Sosa was walking down a Shanghai sidewalk when he stumbled onto a digital image. It was projected onto the floor just inside a burger joint — yes, a burger joint — just off the sidewalk, and if you got close, the image changed. It would show yo
Have you ever awakened from a summer night in the woods, camping with friends, only to find you were the sole victim of a mosquito onslaught? Or have you returned from a hike covered in bites, yet your friends were without?
Researchers at the University of California Santa Cruz have developed a 3D display which can also be viewed in 2D without glasses, and without the blurred effect caused by overlapping images. Though, as you'd expect, the screen displays both left and

Research to find a way of killing cancer cells, without harming normal, healthy cells.
Researchers say two new drugs for Alzheimer's disease have shown promise in early experiments and will likely progress to the next round of clinical trials.
The bathroom is a great place to save water and try sustainable materials—just switching to low-flow showerheads and toilets can cut your water consumption by almost 50 percent. Here are a few more easy ways to make a more eco-friendly restroom.
Using microarray technology, researchers can distinguish between viral and bacterial infections in children with fever by profiling the activity of genes in a blood sample.
A top contender in the world of traffic apps, but can INRIX safely rescue you from the high seas of red brake lights during rush hour?
On a recent family summer road trip we found ourselves driving through the mountain town of Cherokee, N.C., which lies just outside the southern main entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park (a must-see, if you've never been).
Russia plans to built floating reactors that can dock at remote Arctic cities to provide energy and fresh water. Here's how they work.
