Deep-sea mining might feed plankton a diet of junk food
Mining the seafloor for valuable metals could send dangerous ripples through ocean food webs.
Tiny floating plankton, the base of the food web, can accidentally ingest particles of sediment kicked up by deep-sea mining operations —…

What Do Consumers Really Want in Smart Glasses?
Are you finally ready to hang a computer screen on your face?
Fifteen years ago, that would have seemed like a silly question. Then came the much-hyped and much-derided Google Glass in 2012, and frankly, it still seemed a silly question.
Now,…

Wild new “gyromorph” materials could make computers insanely fast
Researchers are exploring a new generation of computers that operate using light, or photons, instead of electrical currents. Systems that rely on light to store and process information could one day run far more efficiently and complete…

Robust 'Huber mean' for geometric data protects against noise and outliers
In an era driven by complex data, scientists are increasingly encountering information that doesn’t lie neatly on flat, Euclidean surfaces. From 3D medical scans to robot orientations and AI transformations, much of today’s data lives on curved…

A radical upgrade pushes quantum links 200x farther
Quantum computers can perform certain calculations at remarkable speeds, yet connecting them over long distances has been one of the major obstacles to building large, reliable quantum networks.
Until recently, two quantum computers could only…
