Fascinating study finds that the presence of atmospheric oxygen triggers the removal of webbed digits in amphibians and amniotes
A study published in the journal Developmental Cell found that when certain animal species detect the presence of atmospheric oxygen, their webbed digits can turn into free fingers. This is especially the case in the embryotic development of amphibians and amniotes, which includes birds, reptiles and even mammals, all of which are capable of having either webbed digits […]

Say goodbye to flat tires: Michelin develops new ‘puncture-proof’ airless tires
Flat tires may soon be a thing of the past. Michelin and General Motors (GM) have announced the development of a prototype for production-ready airless tires, which could roll out and replace old pneumatic rubber tires by 2025. Both companies say they have been developing the airless tires for the better part of two decades. Michelin calls their […]

Amazing study reveals bees can connect symbols to numbers: Insects COMPUTE
Research has established that bees understand the concept of zero and are capable of doing basic math. Now, a recent research conducted by scientists from the RMIT University in Australia suggests that bees are also capable of being trained to connect symbols to numbers in order to receive food. This experiment used a carrot and stick reward system to […]

Mining the next frontier: NASA invests in optical mining tech for use on asteroids, the moon
NASA is investing in optical mining technology that will make it easier for resources to be extracted from the moon and, potentially, asteroids. NASA, through its Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program, will begin exploring the feasibility of developing technology that combines robotic rovers with mining tech that could turn mining in space from a science fiction […]

Researchers spot 2 new Earth-like planets orbiting a tiny star located about 12.5 light-years from our Solar System
Astronomers believe that they have found two new Earth-like exoplanets situated within their host star’s habitable zone, or the area around a star that can support the existence of liquid water. These are the conclusions of the scientists who have been observing the star known as Teegarden’s Star, an ultra-cool dwarf that sits just 12.5 light-years […]

Study suggests Europa, Jupiter’s Moon, contains table salt in its oceans just like the oceans on Earth
A study published in the journal Science Advances believes that subterranean oceans lurking underneath the surface of Jupiter’s moon Europa may have a similar salt composition to oceans on Earth after the Hubble Space Telescope spotted sodium chloride, or salt, on the surface of the icy moon. Scientists now believe that other similarities may be discovered between the oceans of the two worlds. Four different […]

Manuscripts by astronomer Kepler show that he ‘may have practiced alchemy’
Researchers studying Johannes Kepler’s manuscripts believe they found evidence that suggests that the famous German astronomer may have been a practitioner of alchemy, the protoscientific tradition famous for its obsession with turning “base metals” like lead into “noble metals” like gold and silver. Kepler lived in the late 16th to the early 17th centuries, and is known as an astronomer, astrologer and […]

Clever “Flying-V” plane design is more fuel-efficient than today’s most advanced aircraft
The Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands, in partnership with KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, is working on an innovative airplane design known as the “Flying-V,” which — its creators claim — uses 20 percent less fuel thanks to its unique, two-pronged configuration. Flaring diagonally backwards from its nose to create the V-shape, the airplane has the same wingspan as existing […]

Researchers search exomoons for signs of extraterrestrial life
A researcher from the University of Lincoln believes that scientists have been looking for extraterrestrial life in the wrong places. The researcher asserts that exomoons — moons that orbit planets outside the solar system (exoplanets) — could hold the key to finding alien life. Of the 4,000 or so exoplanets that have been discovered by scientists thus far, […]

Liquid water on Pluto? Gases trapped in a layer of ice could be what keeps an underground ocean from freezing, report researchers
Scientists believe that a layer of gassy material on Pluto’s surface is stopping an ocean underneath it from freezing over. New models of Pluto’s evolution suggest that this gassy layer is helping to insulate this body of water. If their calculations are correct, this means that these gases, if present in other planets, can potentially harbor life-supporting bodies […]
