Scientists at NASA are talking about the presence of a vast ocean under the icy surface of our solar system's dwarf planet, Pluto, after delving into a heart-shaped feature on the planet's surface. Even though the temperature on the planet falls to almost minus 400 degree Fahrenheit, yet the scientists believe the ocean beneath the surface could be of liquid...
A team of scientists led by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University has revealed that the structural connections within the brain are unique to a person, and can be used for identification purpose. According to a paper published in PLOS, the team used a technique called ‘diffusion MRI’ to scan and map the structural connections of the brain. It is different from...
Scientists have contrived a way to revitalize human eggs using the mother's genetic particles that normally go to waste, an advancement that may help women in their maternal age struggling with infertility treatments. The 'waste' DNA comes from small cells called polar bodies that form off eggs and contain the same genetic material as in a woman's egg nucleus. Scientists...
The biggest and brightest full moon since 1948 will make an appearance on Monday, Nov. 14. The moon is coming this close to Earth after a gap of 69 years, and if you miss it this time then you will have to wait another 17 years for such a lunar sighting. NASA says we won't see another like it...
A team of researchers led by Dr Jinyao Tang from the University of Hong Kong has created the first of its kind, synthetic light seeking Nano-robots. These robots can help surgeons in dealing with tumor removal, cell targeted therapy and more precise medical operations. Developing robots in nano-scale was a hurdle for scientists for a long time as the size ...
China has moved forward from creating cheap toys, lights and other consumer items to actually creating an artificial sun. https://twitter.com/hevilys/status/794406457231872000 Earlier this year in February, Chinese scientists were able to make a nuclear reactor plasma reach a temperature of 50 million Kelvins (or, 49.999 million degrees Celsius) -which is thrice as hot as the sun's 15 million Kelvins core. And now they...
