Storing and transporting hydrogen, a clean fuel that can provide power off-grid
Hydrogen might just be the fuel of the future. An energy carrier like electricity, it can store tremendous amounts of energy and power places with no access to the power grid. And whether it’s used in a fuel cell or burned to create heat, its only byproducts are clean water and heat. But the “hydrogen economy” – […]

NRL successfully transmits electrical energy using microwave technology
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), a research facility of the U.S. Marine Corps and the U.S. Navy, has successfully transmitted 1.6 kilowatts of electrical energy over one kilometer by converting electricity into microwaves, which are then sent to a receiver in a directed beam using a dish as a transmitting antenna. According to the NRL, […]

3D printing manufacturing hubs could transform cities
Imagine a city that doesn’t have to rely on factories several hundreds of miles away to supply the needs of its residents. This self-sufficient city could become its own manufacturing hub. Now, researchers from Cardiff University have found a way to make that happen. In a recent study published in the journal Computers & Operations Research, researchers described how 3D […]

Study shows gullies on Mars’ southern hemisphere
Mars might have no active volcano and no streams of water to speak of, but it has vast shifting sand dunes that continually churn out gullies. That’s according to a study published recently in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, which shows that gullies form on the sand dunes in the planet’s south every Martian spring. How the Martian seasons drive […]

Scientists suggest “gravity portals” can turn dark matter into ordinary matter
Over 80 percent of the matter in the universe exists in a form that scientists cannot directly observe. Known as “dark matter,” this mysterious substance cannot be seen or detected by even the most powerful telescopes. Now, a recent study shows what potentially happens to dark matter when it interacts with gravity. Researchers from the Chinese Academy of […]

New research suggests mushrooms can communicate with each other using up to 50 “words”
A recent study published in the Royal Society Open Science journal has found that mushrooms can communicate with each other. Scientists even believe they are able to use up to 50 “words.” “[We] found that the ‘fungal language’ exceeds the European languages in morphological complexity,” reads the study, written by Andrew Adamatzky, professor of computer science at […]

Scientists discover new solar waves that move three times faster than they thought possible
A new study published on March 24 in Nature Astronomy has found a new set of waves on the Sun’s surface that don’t fit current theories. Known as “high-frequency retrograde (HFR) waves,” the newly-detected waves travel in the opposite direction of the Sun’s rotation and emerge as a pattern of vortices on the Sun’s surface, moving […]

Stanford researchers create photon diode for all-optical computer that runs on light instead of electricity
Researchers from Stanford University developed a photon diode that could be used for an all-optical computer that uses light instead of electricity for computing. Photon diodes — devices that allow light to flow in only one direction — are ubiquitous in modern electronics and can be found in LEDs, solar cells and integrated circuits used in computing and communications. But most diodes are not small enough for […]

LUNAR MYSTERY: Rusty patches found on moon’s surface despite its lack of rust-inducing ingredients
Astronomers are baffled by the rusty patches on the moon’s surface despite its lack of rust-inducing ingredients such as water and oxygen. In a paper published in the journal Science Advances, scientists from the University of Hawaii at Manoa made the discovery after analyzing data gathered from Chandrayaan-1’s Moon Mineralogy Mapper or M3, an instrument made by […]

Scientists develop fast method of detecting toxin from pesticides and chemical weapons
A group of Australian researchers has developed a new and fast method of detecting a dangerous toxin from pesticides and chemical weapons. The study, published in the journal ACS Nano, explains how perovskite nanocrystals, which were being used to develop new solar panels, can change color upon detecting methyl iodide. Methyl iodide, also known as iodomethane, is a colorless […]
