In Antarctica, balloon lands after 23-day search for particles from outer space - Phys.org
After years of work building an exquisitely sensitive instrument, University of Chicago scientists stood and watched as it flew up and out of sight into the fiercely blue Antarctic sky. Launched on Dec. 20, it would travel for the next 23 days on a NASA ballo…
Dinosaurs Were Speed Demons, New Fossil Footprints Prove They Could Sprint Like Athletes! - The Daily Galaxy
Dinosaurs weren’t just about size and strength; some of them were also incredibly fast. Recent footprints discovered in Mongolia have revealed just how quick these creatures could really move.
Scientists harness nature's chirality bias to design series of complex mechanically interlocked molecules - Phys.org
In nature, molecules often show a strong preference for partnering with other molecules that share the same chirality or handedness. A behavior that is quite evident in the phenomenon known as homochirality-driven entanglement, where molecules that are all le…
