Modern space exploration mostly relies on shipments from Earth, but these rarely include fresh fruits or vegetables. Having reliable sources of fresh food—rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and fibre—could help keep astronauts healthy on long missions.
Ever wonder why you still feel tired, irritable, or unable to concentrate, even after a full night’s sleep? Studies suggest the culprit could be your night-time exposure to artificial light—from smartphones, tablets, computers, and LED lights.
For a long time, scientists believed this was how fish rested. Surprisingly, research reveals that this seemingly effortless behaviour actually uses almost twice as much energy as genuine rest.
Researchers at the Joint European Torus (JET) shattered a 24-year old record by achieving the highest-ever energy output of 59 megajoules from nuclear fusion, generated over a sustained period of time
For a long time, it was presumed that volcanic eruptions that take place on the bottom oceans were boring compared to those that happen on dry land. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Astronomers detected the most powerful coronal mass ejection ever observed from a solar-type star. Scientists think that past, similar eruptions from our own sun may have helped shape the way Earth and Mars look today.
In Western nations, it's common to believe that we should slow down, do less, and retire as we become older. A group of Harvard biochemical researchers and biologists decided to put this idea to the test
Scientists developed a fabric capable of producing energy using body motion utilizing a type of contact electrification known as triboelectric charging
In an effort to outline the hazards of intensifying space exploration scientists wrote a paper about a particular risk that hasn't yet been talked about a lot, namely invasion.
