Central to a lot of scientific research into aging are tiny caps on the ends of our chromosomes called telomeres.
Ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) was extensively used in the 1940s and 1950s to treat many diseases including septicemia, pneumonia, tuberculosis, arthritis, asthma and even poliomyelitis.
Columbia researcher David Brenner believes far-UVC light--safe for humans, but lethal for viruses--could be a 'game changer.'
The solar gravitational lens (SGL) is characterized by remarkable properties: it offers brightness amplification of up to a factor of ~1e11 [100 billion amplification] (at 1 um) and extreme angular resolution (~1e-10 arcsec). As such, it allows for e
The Swarm-Probe Enabling ATEG Reactor, or SPEAR, is a nuclear electric propulsion spacecraft that uses a new, lightweight reactor moderator and advanced thermoelectric generators (ATEGs) to greatly reduce overall core mass.
In March 2020, Positron Dynamics completed a new source installation at Berkeley. They continue to make progress on experiments and designs.
Davide Guzzetti, Auburn University, has NASA NIAC funding feasibility analysis of integrating an array of microchips with space satellite functions, or ChipSats, on a multifunctional shape memory polymer (SMP) bus that is capable of self-folding when
Psiquantum has raised $215 million to develop what they claim will be the first useful general purpose quantum computer.
The study found that the risk "of transmission from surfaces outdoors is lower during daylight," and under higher temperature and humidity conditions. "Sunlight destroys the virus quickly," reads the briefing.
If you're handicapped or have reduced mobility, a capable scooter may be a necessity. However, if it can't handle bumps, holes, snow, ice, rough terrain, steep inclines, etc., it may not be of very much use to you in some cases. This is especially
The pandemic has been particularly devastating to America's biggest cities, as the virus has found fertile ground in the density that is otherwise prized. And it comes as the country's major urban centers were already losing their appeal for many
Bats pop up in the fossil record around 50 million years ago during a time known as the Eocene. Paleontologists have recovered remains ranging from teeth and bits of jaw to stunning full skeletons in places as far-flung as Wyoming, Paris, Australia a
This is an important question simply because we observe a preference in our empirical understanding of particle physics. It naturally begs the question of just where is the other plausible possibility. Our understanding of the first act of creati
An ultra-long-wavelength radio telescope on the far-side of the Moon has tremendous advantages compared to Earth-based and Earth-orbiting telescopes.
Covid-19, the disease the novel coronavirus causes, attacks not only the lungs but the kidneys, heart, intestines, liver and brain.
For years we have witnessed Boston Dynamics develop increasingly sophisticated robots, and while they are undoubtedly impressive engineering marvels, the question of what could they be used for was often raised. Now, the company has revealed its Spot
One of the biggest global players in artificial intelligence (AI) is Google and their high-tech Brain division has been pushing the envelope for years.
A great deal of the coverage of the COVID-19 crisis has been apocalyptic. That is partly because "if it bleeds, it leads."
Dr. Judy Mikovits didn't intend to become one of the most controversial scientists of the twenty-first century. But uncovering inconvenient truths which threaten big money does come with consequences.
'It's been known for years that programmed cell death benefits living organisms, but we're now realising there is programmed organismal death as well, that can benefit animal colonies,' said first author Dr Evgeniy Galimov at the University Col
The Nemo two-person submersible follows on from the company's Super Yacht Sub series and C-Researcher Series. It tips the scales at 2,500 kg (5,510 lb) and is just 155 cm (61 in) tall. It can be placed on any flat surface without needing a cradle or
I have never known any government to put the best interests of its people first, and this COVID-19 pandemic is no exception.
(Natural News) Conservationists working at the London Zoo are busy cultivating Pete, a maidenhair fern that will hopefully be able to take photos that can help scientists monitor remote areas of rainforests all over the world.
Her NIH boss Anthony Fauci delayed publication of that critical paper for 6 months to let his protégé Robert Gallo replicate, publish and claim credit. The delay in mass HIV testing let AIDS further spread around the globe and helped Fauci win prom
Researchers have architecturally designed plate-nanolattices " nanometer-sized carbon structures " that are stronger than diamonds as a ratio of strength to density.
Today, we continue to provide you information about the COVID-19 pandemic.
The battle against the novel coronavirus calls for inventive ways to track its spread, and one way scientists are working to achieve this is through our sewage. Australian researchers are reporting a breakthrough in this area, discovering evidence of
The President asked the reporter who brought up the issue when the grant when given. When she replied 2015, Trump said "2015. Who was president then? I wonder."
Some natural organisms, such as bone and coral reefs, have an incredible ability to adjust to varying amounts of stress, drawing on nearby minerals for structural reinforcements as the need arises.
