Pictures Reveal the Chemical Ecosystem of Murchison Meteorite Particles

Re-exploring a renowned meteoriteGround braking Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) analysis is being used to better explore the chemical diversity of the renowned Murchison meteorite that exploded over Australia in 1969. The desired outcome of this procedure might result in the discovery of new particles in meteorites and samples from space.Preliminary analysis of the Murchison...

Self-Healing Materials For Robotics Composed of ‘Jelly’ and Salt

Credit: University of CambridgeScientists have developed self-healing, biodegradable, 3D-printed materials that could be used to develop realistic artificial hands and other soft robotics applications.The low-cost jelly-like materials, developed by scientists at the University of Cambridge, can sense strain, temperature, and humidity. Furthermore, unlike earlier self-healing robots, they can additionally partially repair themselves at room...

The Largest Galaxy Ever Seen Has Just Been Discovered

The radio lobes of Alcyoneus. (Oei et al., arXiv, 2022).Astronomers have just discovered an absolute beast of a galaxyHiding some 3 billion light-years away, Alcyoneus is a giant radio galaxy reaching five megaparsecs into space. That is 16.3 million light-years long and represents the biggest recognized structure of galactic origin.The finding highlights our poor...

Inducing Room-Temperature Superconductivity: New Opportunities Brought up by Research Using Light

To study superconducting materials in their “normal,” non-superconducting state, scientists usually switch off superconductivity by exposing the material to a magnetic field (left). SLAC scientists discovered that turning off superconductivity with a flash of light (right), produces a normal state with very similar fundamental physics that is also unstable and demonstrates brief flashes of...

Any dysfunctional mental state often results from a...

How Mars Lost its Oceans

Planet Mars illustration. Credit: NASAIt has long been recognized that Mars once had oceans due, in part, to a protective magnetic field similar to Earth's. Nevertheless, the electromagnetic field disappeared, and a new research study may lastly be able to explain why.Scientists recreated conditions anticipated in the core of Mars billions of years...
