TECH & INNOVATIONWeather technology has come a long way since the modern avatar of weather forecasting took shape in the 1830s. Today, you no longer have to rely on data from thermometers and barometers to check the day's weather. Nor do you have to check the television or radio every few hours for the latest weather updates.
As a key technology in achieving the next generation of communications and computing technologies, quantum entanglement has been a topic of interest in the scientific community - with the latest efforts detailing how to achieve it through the application of heat.
The Utah State University (USU) Space Dynamics Laboratory has been awarded a NASA contract to investigate meteorological phenomena and the disturbances it creates on the Earth's atmosphere.
NASA unveiled its plans for the final test in its Space Launch System's (SLS) Green Run series, the "hot fire," and the agency is looking for a January 17 test run.
A recent collaboration between Oregon State University's College of Engineering, Cornell University, and the Argonne National Laboratory has made significant progress in hydrogen extraction from water.
Cody Vaujin has created an incredible reputation for himself in the world of sports handicapping. The founder and owner of Codycoverspreads, Vaujin, is a dynamic and fearless entrepreneur, taking the industry by storm in his early 20s. "I entered a handicapping contest in 2016.

What happened in that competition was that I completely dominated it. I won so big that people really started to take notice of who I was and began listening to what I had to say," he recalls.
Back in October 2020, a Northrop Grumman Cygnus supply craft delivered new scientific experiments to the International Space Station (ISS). Aside from the delivery, Cygnus is set to host a two-week test of new technologies known as SharkSat.
Scientists recently devised low-cost conductive inks for clog-free ballpoint pens, or that can enable users to 'write' circuits nearly anywhere, including human skin.
With the standard household microwave oven, copper foil, and glass containers, researchers from the University of Wyoming have turned coal powder into graphite.
Researchers have developed a new catalyst for turning plastic waste into fuel and wax. The plastic crisis is one of the worst human-made threats to the planet.
