Astronomers have revealed the first picture of a black hole. It is one of the star-devouring monsters that is scattered throughout the universe and obscured by impenetrable shields of gravity. These mighty and massive monsters are spread across galaxies and have a gravitational field so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. What is […]
Brain Awareness Week, which occurs every March, is a global campaign to increase public awareness of the progress and benefits of brain research. And today, a research paper has been published that discusses how a set of proteins in the blood might possibly give an indication of later-to-come Alzheimer’s disease in an individual. In a […]
It is known that the human eye can see only lights with wavelengths in the range of 400 and 700 nanometers among the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Ever wished to have a visionary capability that goes beyond the human eye’s observable range? It seems like that wish might not be too good to be true anymore, […]
There is a new development on the horizon – a drug capsule that can deliver oral doses of insulin. This recent development by an MIT-led research team has the potential to replace the injections given to type 1 diabetic patients on a daily basis. The capsule is almost the size of a blueberry. It contains […]
Chinese scientists have launched a rocket to observe weather from an unmanned semi-submersible submarine for the first time in history. A rocketsonde that was launched by researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. What is a rocketsonde? It is a system for atmospheric observations that consists of a rocket that launches instruments that can make weather […]
A study published by the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona) has been the first to achieve stable simulations of DNA crystals. Scientists at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine produced a stable simulation of DNA crystals. Deoxyribonucleic acid which is commonly called DNA is an indispensable part of every living being. It is a nucleotide which is structurally […]
Nanobots or nanorobots are microscopic robots that are expected to do specific tasks at the atomic, molecular and cellular level. Their prominence is in the field of medical science thanks to their immense potential. Developers have long been intending to develop a robot that can fit into capillaries. Engineers in Switzerland have built a nanobot […]
Scientists from the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Ontario preassumes that there is an existence of two Universes which are the mirror images of each other. As per the Physicists, the other Universe has antimatter of the very same extent our Universe is made of, these are few assumptions made by the scientists. Scientists […]
Researchers from IBM described a wearable system that unveiled today; a fingernail sensor prototype that is designed to measure how far your fingernails bend and move throughout the day. It is a small sensor prototype that sits on a person’s fingernail to help monitor the effectiveness of drugs used to combat the symptoms of Parkinson’s and other […]
Pollution has been one of the most important global issues and which gave rise to environment-related questions and asked the right questions about the future of Earth and its inhabitants in general. Air-pollution has affected the wildlife and the day-to-day lives of humans. To tackle the throbbing problem of the air pollution mainly caused by […]
Pneumonia often takes several days to return definitive results especially in hospital-acquired cases which are often more severe. In an innovative research, a nano-particle based technology developed by MIT researchers could be used to speed up the diagnoses of pneumonia. Pneumonia is a respiratory disease killing about 50,000 people in an average in the United […]
T-1000, a self-healing killer robot in “Terminator 2: Judgement Day”, has inspired a team of Chinese scientists to create a liquid metal-driven palm-sized robot equipped with plastic wheels, a small lithium battery, and a few drops of liquid metal; reported Hong Kong’s “South China Morning Post” website on October, 25th. Li Xiangpeng, a professor in […]
