Over a hundred German pulmonologists is asking for a reevaluation of current limits for nitrous dioxide and small dust particles. They say that there is no scientific reason for the limits. The former

Fried worms are already finding their way to our plates and many insect food producers pride themselves on how eco-friendly they are. But new findings show that that might not be completely true. Breeding

NASA’s robotic explores that go into deep space and one day even to other worlds need a radioactive source of energy. Plutonium-238 is great but making it is not easy. But a new technology will allow NASA

Plans for new Future Circular Collider are being drawn up by CERN. For nine billion Euros it should be one hundred kilometers long. Julian Herzog (Website) [CC BY-SA 3.0 ( from Wikimedia Commons CERN wants

Young star systems usually have protoplanetary disks of dust and gas. Almost all young stars have them. And as you might guess this is the material from which planet are born. But the disk that was recently

A prototype of an incredible interplanetary spaceship World Is Not Enough (WINE) that uses steam finished its first test. It successfully mined material from a simulated asteroid, made its fuel from it

Explosion named AT2018cow outshined a whole galaxy. But in many ways it was exceptional and scientists can’t agree on what it actually was. Was it a burp of a supermassive black hole? Or a nontraditional

A Canadian start-up – GBatteries – came with a bold claim. They claim that they have a technology that will allow to recharge electric cars as fast as you can refuel cars nowadays. The people behind the

Detailed observation of cosmic gases in higher resolution revealed the true identity of an object known as HCN-0.009-0.044. Very likely it is a black hole it a mass of about 32 thousand Suns. While black

If we manage to get RNA in a recipe for a needed protein into the cells of a patient we could treat many serious diseases. And when it comes to lung disease we could breathe them in. Nanotechnology capable

The Earth’s magnetic field is behaving erratically as the north magnetic pole is moving from Canada towards Siberia. This forces the scientists to quickly adjust the world magnetic model. The Earth’s magnetic

At this time we can only slow down multiple sclerosis – but a certain type of a cell has the potential the change this. The immune system causes an inflammation in the central nervous system – including

Fusion experts are afraid that the ITER tokamak that is being constructed could be damaged by problematic magnetic islands that get created during fusion reactions. Fusion energy is almost like the search

At this year CES you could have seen the first fully integrated commercial quantum computer – Q System One from IBM. There were many interesting things we could have seen at this years CES. A crash of

The European space observatory Gaia gave us another interesting discovery. Its observations show that white dwarves crystallize over time. Our Sun will crystallize in about ten billion years. It sounds

There is a chance that Interstellar didn’t lie. Astrophysicists think that a spaceship could fly through a large enough rotating black hole without turning into a nudle. Black holes often serve as portals

Russia has tested their hypersonic missile Avangard. This missile is capable of reaching speeds of up to Mach 27 making it a missile without any defense. Because of the American anti-missile systems, Russia

Scientists enhanced photosynthesis and increased the creation of organic matter by 40 %. All they needed was a few genes that were borrowed using genetic engineering. If we don’t want to soon see people

Detailed observation of sixteen dwarf galaxies has brought us the first direct evidence of “dark matter heating”. Dark matter is still… dark – as in mysterious. But scientists aren’t backing up and are

Alphabet Inc. - the parent company of Google – wants to do something very ambitious. They want to eradicate diseases transmitted by mosquitoes all around the world. They want to do this using a specific
