One of the enduring myths surrounding carrots is whether they can give you night vision. While the answer, sadly, remains no, there is a fascinating World War II story about its origins - and a grain of truth to the tale.
A team from Cornell University has fabricated a miniature magnetic field sensor, using an ultrathin graphene "sandwich," that offers detection over a greater temperature change with enough sensitivity to sense subtleties in magnetic fields.
New research reveals how Ancient Egyptians valued animals to the point of mummification, a sacred burial tradition. Advanced technology allows scientists to thoroughly scan the animal mummies and recreate 3D imaging without damaging the original specimens.
The United States Department of Defense (DOD) has recently approved five manufacturers to sell small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) to the US Government - it's military and associated federal agencies - as a culmination of an 18-month effort.
Fortunately enough, we live in the digital era when a broad array of apps and websites can serve as day planners, language teachers, personal trainers, music players, and other types of irreplaceable helpers. Why not use these benefits of progress to make a students' life easier? Below you will find top ultra helpful free apps, platforms, and websites to improve your academic performance and build new skills.
A new study has demonstrated that a 30-minute radiotherapy technique employed by administering a spherical intrabeam device in the affected part of the body could potentially be as effective as existing conventional therapy procedures. This is after researchers found no significant differences between the methods.
Researchers have successfully demonstrated a secure transmission using measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI-QKD) protocol, sending information over 170 kilometers.
The three second film is the oldest film in existence, a scene shot by the inventor of an early motion camera in Leeds 132 years ago. An engineer used artificial intelligence to remaster the scene from the original 20 frames up to a smooth 250 frames.
Science has evolved so much in such a short space of time. It wasn't so long ago that sliding phones were the biggest thing in the world. Nowadays, if you don't have a touchscreen smartphone, you're considered way behind with the times.
Rapid Prototyping in China is much upgraded industry. It is the quick process which enables us to manufacture a physical part or model using three-dimensional (3D) computer-aided design (CAD).
Sleep is essential for overall health, but when your mattress is not up to par, sleep can be a distant dream. Finding the right mattress can be a challenge as we all require different attributes of a proper mattress to get a good night's rest. However, thanks to revolutionary mattress technology, 2020 can be your year to get the best sleep you have ever had. Here are the 7 best mattress technologies to help you sleep better.
Prototyping and building parts for the aerospace industry is a process that has typically taken weeks, if not months to achieve. One British firm has now slashed this time to mere days thanks to a new 3D printing process using chrome cobalt.
