Data Reveal Cross-Regional Plastic Pollution in Green Sea Turtles

Biology, Ecology, Plants & Animals /

Researchers investigated the diet and plastic consumption of green sea turtles living in the waters near the Ogasawara Islands, Japan, finding plastics in 7 out of 10 turtles studied. By combining genetic, isotopic, and plastic analyses, they inferred that the plastics had come from regions outside the turtles’ usual migratory routes, highlighting the impact of […]

Kawasaki’s Four-legged Robotic Horse Vehicle is set to Enter Production

Applied Science, Robotics /

Kawasaki, which once described Corleo as a distant 2050 vision, has moved the hydrogen-powered, four-hooved robotic horse into production and plans to release the first model in just four years. We first covered the mountain-climbing concept last April, when it was little more than rough CGI. Kawasaki’s Safe Adventure Team plans public rides at Expo

Scientists Create Ultra-Thin Robot Capable of Navigating Inside the Body

Applied Science, Robotics /

Researchers at Pohang University of Science and Technology in South Korea have designed a paper-thin robot that can exert tremendous force. Published in Nature Communications in July, the study suggests it may have applications in surgery or industrial machinery. The robot mimics the proteins that drive human muscle movement. In humans, the motor protein myosin

Innovative Quantum Detection Technology is Reshaping Dark Matter Research

Physics, Quantum Physics /

In our quest to comprehend the universe, our knowledge represents just a tiny fraction of the full reality. Dark matter and dark energy constitute roughly 95% of the universe, leaving a mere 5% as “ordinary matter” that we can directly observe. Dr. Rupak Mahapatra, an experimental particle physicist at Texas A&M University, develops cutting-edge semiconductor
