The complex 3D shapes of brains, lungs, eyes, hands, and other vital bodily structures emerge from the way in which flat 2D sheets of cells fold during embryonic development. Now, researchers at Columbia Engineering have developed a…
Advanced nuclear firm Aalo Atomics announced it has secured $100 million in new capital and regulatory support to complete its first reactor at Idaho National Laboratory (INL).
The project, selected for the Department of Energy’s (DOE) new…
NVIDIA has released its Streaming Sortformer, a breakthrough in real-time speaker diarization that instantly identifies and labels participants in meetings, calls, and voice-enabled applications—even in noisy, multi-speaker…
For much of the 20th century it was thought that the adult brain was incapable of regeneration. This view has since shifted dramatically and neurogenesis – the birth of new neurons – is now a widely accepted phenomenon in the…
On August 8, 2025, NASA’s Curiosity rover found itself at the intersection of three ridges found on the Martian landscape. This “peace sign” shape, as called by NASA engineers, is part of a larger boxwork pattern on the surface of Mars.
Hydrogen is gaining traction as a clean alternative to fossil fuels. It powers vehicles and heavy machinery without producing greenhouse gases, making it especially useful in industries where electrification is difficult.
Yet storing hydrogen…
A key study claiming to provide evidence of Majorana quasiparticles has received an extensive correction five years after it was published in the journal Science. Two researchers who flagged the paper as problematic say that the correction…
Lost in the glare of the sun on Sept. 21, the new moon will rise without anyone in the Northern Hemisphere noticing. However, early birds in New Zealand and the South Pacific — and a handful of people (and millions of penguins) overwintering…
As a NASA spacecraft whizzed away from Earth at 40,265 mph, it took a brief moment to look over its robotic shoulder at how far it’s traveled.
Psyche, a mission and orbiter named after its space…
And that’s precisely what happens. A quick blowtorch to the back frame loosens the bolts, and Pala is able to swap the original part for a state-of-the-art titanium rear triangle in just a few minutes. Instead of the original hefty old…
