Watch: Crafty Robot Uses Wings to Hop Where Others Fear to Tread

Robotics, Science /

Flying robots have several advantages over ground-based ones, but they typically consume a lot of energy. A new experimental robot offers a clever solution: instead of walking or flying traditionally, it uses a wing-assisted hopping mechanism. Lightweight and Compact, Yet Innovative Developed by researchers at MIT, the University of Hong Kong, and City University of

We Were Wrong About Uranus: New Study Solves Long-Standing Mysteries

Astronomy, Planetary Science, Science /

Recent observations have corrected a long-held misconception regarding the length of a day on Uranus. New, more accurate measurements of the planet’s rotation have revealed that a full day on Uranus lasts 17 hours, 14 minutes, and 52 seconds. This is 28 seconds longer than previously estimated, based on data gathered by Voyager 2 during

World Autism Awareness Day: Expert Explains the Importance of Stimming

Healthcare, Medicine /

Stimming, short for “self-stimulatory behavior,” is a self-soothing activity often observed in autistic individuals. It includes repetitive movements, sounds, or actions and is typically classified in medical literature under “rigid and repetitive behavior.” This perspective often portrays stimming negatively, leading health professionals, teachers, and even parents to try to prevent it. However, stimming is a
