Origins of Earth’s magnetic field remain a mystery
Microscopic minerals excavated from an ancient outcrop of Jack Hills, in Western Australia, have been the subject of intense geological study, as they seem to bear traces of the Earth’s magnetic field reaching as far back as 4.2 billion years…

Innovative Technologies for Satellites
Some satellites are only slightly larger than a milk carton.
This type of construction is now to be given a further simplified architecture and thus become even lighter and more cost-effective: This is the goal of the teams of Professors Sergio…

Scientists develop ‘backpack’ computers to track wild animals in hard-to-reach habitats
To truly understand an animal species is to observe its behavior and social networks in the wild.
With new technology, researchers are able to track tiny animals that divide their time between flying around in the sky and huddling together in…

The Biology Of Why Coronavirus Is So Deadly
COVID-19 is caused by a coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. Coronaviruses belong to a group of viruses that infect animals, from peacocks to whales. They’re named for the bulb-tipped spikes that project from the virus’s surface and give the…

Does relativity lie at the source of quantum exoticism?
Since its beginnings, quantum mechanics hasn’t ceased to amaze us with its peculiarity, so difficult to understand.
Why does one particle seem to pass through two slits simultaneously? Why instead of specific predictions can we only talk about…
