NASA scientists safely created controlled flames in space for years. The research on fire spread will help to enhance the combustion understanding, with the protection of future explorers.In the absence of Earth’s gravity, the behaviour of flames is different compared to Earth. In general, the warm air rises and gets replaced by cool air from…
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has helped astronomers find a galaxy that seems to be the old twin sister of the Milky Way. With a central bulge of old stars, a vivid disc of stellar babies, and two separate spiral arms, the recently discovered galaxy Zhúlóng is the most distant Milky Way “twin” yet…
NASA scientists have been studying crystals to optimise the process of crystallisation for decades. Various researchers have conducted research on crystals within the first quarter of the year, the latest being protein crystallisation in microgravity. Alexandra Ros from Arizona State University led the research by launching a protein crystallisation test in the International Space Station…
In March, the NASA Engineers began to gather data by effectively using a network of ground sensors to extract the details from an experimental air taxi. This taxi evaluated the interpretation of aircraft, above the cities, in diverse weather conditions. This campaign will further be used by the researchers to embrace collision avoidance, landing operations,…
An expert team of biologists practising at the Naturalis Biodiversity Centre, a research museum in the Netherlands, has recently discovered evidence of the incorporation of microplastics into caddisfly casings. However, what’s even more interesting is that the use of these microplastics for building the casings has been progressing from as far back as the 1970s….
It is observed that about half of the matter cannot be occupied just by stars and galaxies. Scientists say that hydrogen gas clouds could unveil it. Missing matter of the universe may have finally been detected. It is reported by the astronomers that the stuff revealed and not dark matter accounts for only 15 percent…
Gemini Advanced — the AI service that’s bundled with the Google One AI Premium plan — will be free for a year for college students in the US. Students can now claim 15 months of access to Gemini Advanced, as the company seeks to compete with rival OpenAI’s recent decision to provide two months of…
The awaited Lyrid meteor shower is back! Skywatchers can catch a glimpse of these beautiful meteors streaking across the sky. Lyrids radiate from the Lyra constellation, lying near the star Vega. There are some dramatic meteors lying farther away that streak the sky. It can be seen with the naked eye, without using a telescope;…
Nubia Z70S Ultra Photographer Edition will be launched later this month, according to the Chinese smartphone maker. The company has revealed the design of the upcoming handset, which will arrive in two colourways. The upcoming variant appears to feature a vegan leather finish that resembles a camera. It is expected to debut with similar specifications…
An unexpected shape formed when a graduate student accidentally blended oil, water and nickel. Scientists discovered that the shape-recovering liquid defied the laws of thermodynamics. Instead of minimising the interfacial area and turning into a sphere, the mixture of liquid took the shape of a Grecian urn. This research was conducted by a team led…
