[ad_1] Scientists have developed a new way to achieve artificial photosynthesis by producing high energy hydrocarbons using electron-rich gold nanoparticles as catalyst. During photosynthesis, plants convert the energy of sunlight into glucose by rearranging molecules of water and carbon dioxide. The new process mimics this natural ability through chemical manipulations that create a liquid fuel, … Read more
[ad_1] Earth is bombarded every year by rocky debris, but the rate of incoming meteorites can change over time. Finding enough meteorites scattered on the planet's surface can be challenging, especially if you're interested in reconstructing how often they land. Now, researchers have uncovered a wealth of well-preserved meteorites that have been able to recover … Read more
[ad_1] A NASA research center confirmed that a huge fireball had landed Tuesday in Australian Bay, off the south coast of Australia. The California Institute of Technology's Center for Near-Earth Objects studies the impact on the time, location, and amount of energy generated by meteors and asteroids that are approaching the Earth. The research center … Read more
[ad_1] If you have already opened a scientific manual, you have probably already seen the image of an atom, with a group of protons and neutrons constituting its nucleus, around which swirls a swarm of electrons. But you probably also know that all these particles are not in the form of small, orderly spheres, as … Read more
[ad_1] The very first cell-scale network images were captured by scientists from the University of Edinburgh using computer techniques similar to those used for the first image of one. black hole. The results reveal that body cells are wired like computer chips to direct signals that indicate their functioning. Unlike a fixed circuit board, however, … Read more
[ad_1] A NASA leader who is leading the strategy to send American astronauts back to the moon has resigned just six weeks after his appointment. Mark Sirangelo was hired in April as a special assistant to NASA's administrator Jim BridenstineJames (Jim) Frederick BridenstineChef of NASA: A good boost for the return to the moon is … Read more
[ad_1] At night, when you look at the sky – provided you have a decent view and a dark site, you can see thousands of stars. A good telescope can reveal millions. Where do they come from? They exist, so it seems reasonable to assume that they made their debut in the past. When? It's … Read more
[ad_1] This week, the launch of China's space program failed for the first time in nearly two years, as the attempt to put a satellite into orbit was no longer a good thing. In recent years, China has been at full speed in space missions. Its space program launched more rockets than any other in … Read more
[ad_1] Mars and Earth may have many things in common, but the processes that sculpt their sand dunes are not among them. Exactly how the Martian sand moves around crevices and craters is a mystery – but we could finally get a better idea. Planetary scientists have exhaustively revealed how wild winds, low atmosphere, temperature, … Read more
[ad_1] Artist's view of the fusion of two supermassive black holes during a collision of galaxies. Credit: European Space Agency What happens when two supermassive black holes collide? The combination of the power of observation of two future missions of ESA, Athena and LISA, would allow us to study these cosmic clashes and their mysterious … Read more
