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.
