In a recent development, the White House has directed NASA to create a unified time standard for the Moon and other celestial bodies. As the space race intensifies with various governments and private companies venturing into space exploration, it has become crucial to establish international norms beyond Earth’s orbit. According to the White House Office
The relationship between sleep and health is a topic that has intrigued researchers for many years. A recent study has delved deeper into this complex relationship by identifying four distinct types of sleepers and their effects on long-term well-being. While previous research has highlighted the negative impact of poor sleep on various chronic conditions, many
The interactions between phosphorous acid and the platinum catalyst in high-temperature PEM fuel cells have been found to be more intricate than previously believed. Recent experiments at BESSY II using tender X-rays have revealed multiple oxidation processes at the platinum-electrolyte interface. These findings highlight the influence of variations in humidity on these processes, which can
Walking on sand at the beach versus observing sand flowing in an hourglass are two vastly different experiences. These discrepancies highlight the unique properties of granular materials such as sand that have captivated the interest of scientists for years. While previous research has focused on fine-tuning the flow properties of granular materials, the compressibility properties
California, a state known for its aggressive greenhouse gas reduction policies, is ironically the nation’s greatest emitter of one: sulfuryl fluoride. As much as 17% of global emissions of this gas, a common pesticide for treating termites and other wood-infesting insects, stem from the United States. The majority of those emissions trace back to just
The combination of laboratorial studies and simulation software has provided researchers with new insights into the creation of spherical carbon ‘cages’ known as fullerenes. These molecules play a crucial role in potentially carrying complex compounds through the harsh conditions of interstellar space, which could have significant implications for understanding the origins of life on Earth
Tesla, the electric vehicle giant led by Elon Musk, reported a significant decline in first-quarter auto sales. The company’s global deliveries dropped by 8.5 percent to 386,810 vehicles. This decline was attributed to various factors including weak sales in China, fierce competition from local EV makers, and the impact of an arson attack on power
In recent years, medications like Wegovy and Ozempic have gained popularity for their potential health benefits, including appetite control. However, a recent trend on social media platform TikTok has brought attention to a different aspect of these semaglutide-based drugs – unexpected pregnancies among women who are using them. This has raised concerns about the potential
The recent revelation of dual topological phases in an intrinsic monolayer crystal represents a groundbreaking discovery by an international team of scientists led by Boston College physicists, as reported in the online edition of the prestigious journal Nature. This finding introduces a new realm of rule-bending properties in quantum materials, offering a platform for the
Platinum electrodes are essential components in hydrogen fuel cells and electrolysis, key technologies for clean power generation. However, the surface oxidation that occurs during these processes can significantly impact catalyst performance and stability. Researchers have delved into the mechanisms of surface oxidation on platinum surfaces in alkaline media, a previously unexplored area of study. Their
A groundbreaking development in the field of eye tracking has emerged courtesy of a team of engineers at The Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology’s ICFO–Institut de Ciències Fotòniques. These innovative engineers have successfully created a revolutionary camera that is virtually transparent, allowing for seamless eye tracking without obstructing the user’s view. Traditionally, eye tracking
