Having been attached to the International Space Station for six months, the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module, better known as BEAM, is already providing data that will inform the design of future human-rated expandable space habitats. The module wa
We can now integrate actual targeting of these scopes to a high level of precision and this could provide multiple baselines thousands of miles long and steadily increasing resolution as more and more scopes are added to the network.
It will also
While underwater drones and robotic vessels provide scientists with handy ways to explore our world's oceans, there's another more obvious way to plumb the depths of our seas: by enlisting the help of the whales that dwell there.
Technocrat scientists say that a moratorium on genetic technology would have been a disaster, but activists are still fighting for it. In time, genetic material in all life forms will be edited. This is man's pathetic attempt to outdo the Creator,
Law enforcement agencies in dozens of cities and states have suitcase-sized surveillance tools that simulate cellphone towers such as this one and can track individual cellphones.
(NaturalNews) As we are nearing the end of the year, the flu and cold season is kicking into high gear. While it isn't the cold weather itself that makes you sick - you can get a cold year-round - most people tend to get sick during the winter
The day after California regulators shut down Uber's self-driving car program in San Francisco, Uber on Thursday packed up its autonomous vehicles and hauled them to Arizona, vowing to resume testing there.
Leaves are kind of like nature's power plants, converting incoming sunlight into energy for the plant to thrive on. Inspired by the real thing, scientists have previously created artificial leaves that function in much the same way as their natural c
James Beacham looks for answers to the most important open questions of physics using the biggest science experiment ever mounted, CERN's Large Hadron Collider.
More than a billion years ago, two black holes in a distant galaxy locked into a spiral, falling inexorably toward each other, and collided. "All that energy was pumped into the fabric of time and space itself," says theoretical physicist Allan Adams
CRISPR gene drives allow scientists to change sequences of DNA and guarantee that the resulting edited genetic trait is inherited by future generations, opening up the possibility of altering entire species forever.
Maybe your ungrateful family doesn't value all the thought and care you put into wrapping gifts, but that Scotch tape you're using is the true underappreciated workhorse:
the President-elect's Strategic and Policy Forum. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are two individuals one would think might never get along, let alone work together. Yet, this is exactly what will happen in the years to come, as the President-elect's
NASA has hosted a "Space Poop Challenge" that calls for the public to devise an in-suit waste management system that will make astronauts' lives easier. A $30,000 cash reward awaits the winner/s of the challenge.
Nine years ago, Rob Wallace, a 74-year-old design engineer from Australia and a frustrated flyer, was sure he'd hit upon the ultimate solution to speeding up the slow, tedious process of airplane boarding.
The only problem was, he couldn't fin
A jet stream within the Earth's molten iron core has been discovered by scientists using the latest satellite data that helps create an 'X-ray' view of the planet.
If the two things you can't live without are a dark, even tan and a fast-acting, long-lasting erection, then add Melanotan II to your holiday shopping list. This synthetic peptide hormone, which was developed by a research team at the University of
Computers purchased in South Carolina in 2017 may only offer PG-13 rated internet. A bill pre-filed by Republican State Representative William Chumley would require that personal computers and other devices block internet access to pornography and ob
This past week, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) announced that synthetic CBD oil, a non-psychotropic extract, would become a Schedule I drug as of December 14.
(NaturalNews) The censorship of science is nothing new. In Canada, for instance, there were serious concerns about the federal government's increasingly strict regulations that prevented scientists from sharing their findings with the public.
