New study attempts to explain the mysterious atmosphere found on Titan, one of Saturn’s moons
Titan is one of only two bodies in the Solar System that possess both a dense atmosphere and liquid seas on the surface. A new theory posited that the methane and nitrogen filling the skies of the satellite came from organic materials at the moon’s core that were undergoing heat and pressure. “Titan is a very interesting moon because it has […]

Tiny disorganized crystals may hold the key to new magnesium battery energy storage technology
Magnesium-based energy storage systems are heralded as the most likely successor to lithium-ion batteries. A recent discovery involving disordered nanoparticles of magnesium chromium oxide could further increase the already considerable amount of energy that can be stored by magnesium batteries. Researchers from the University College London (UCL) and the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) developed […]

New floating PV panels can generate up to 10 percent of U.S. electricity needs
In order to conserve land, researchers proposed an alternative location for space-intensive solar energy farms. They wanted to set up floating solar photovoltaic arrays on the surfaces of the thousands of artificial reservoirs that provide drinking water and hydroelectric power to the United States. A recent study conducted by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) pointed out that there […]

A muscle protein shows potential for promoting nerve healing
It might soon be possible to treat conditions caused by injuries to nerve fibers in the central nervous system. German researchers reported that they could induce a regenerative protein to form in damaged nerve cells. The protein in question is usually present in muscle cells, and it promoted the healing of injured cells. Most cells in the […]

Irrefutable evidence that physical activity cures depression
Genes do not lie when it comes to determining what is good and healthy for the mind and body. When Massachusetts-based researchers conducted a genetic variation-based study of physical activity, they found strong evidence that exercise could help protect its practitioners from depression. There is a distinct difference between “physical activity can reduce the effects of […]

New research simplifies the process of harvesting solar energy to generate fuels
Harvesting hydrogen gas from water is going to be a much cheaper process thanks to the findings of New York-based researchers. They found a way to make the water splitting process much simpler, which could increase the overall efficiency of hydrogen fuel production and save on expended catalysts. As its name implies, water splitting is a method where the […]

Could this organic molecule be the building block of all life?
The organic compound glycolonitrile was recently spotted within the stellar material surrounding a well-documented young star. Its presence in the early history of the star could help researchers determine just how it and other similar organic molecules ended up on Earth, thereby leading to the development of life as we know it. Glycolonitrile is a […]

New space theory hypothesizes how life on Earth began – by “swallowing” another planet
The leading theory behind the creation of the moon could also explain the eventual emergence of life on Earth. Texas-based researchers claimed that the unknown celestial body which hit our home planet in the distant past also deposited the ingredients necessary for life. An ancient collision with an object the size of Mars is believed to have ripped out a large chunk […]

Researchers find plastic-eating microbe that can solve our ocean’s plastic problem
Even as humans keep on filling the planet with plastic pollutants, the bountiful oceans reveal a means by which the problem can be resolved. An Israeli research team announced that they successfully created a biodegradable plastic from a common seaweed. Their new bioplastic could be broken down by bacteria that feed on the seaweed in the […]

Barbules and velcro: Researchers study birds for inspiration to develop new adhesives and aerospace materials
Do you remember the times when your younger child self toyed with the feather of a bird? When you ran your fingers along its barbs and watched the disturbed parts return to their original positions? Researchers do, and they used the shape of the barbules of a feather to develop new adhesives and aerospace materials. It has been 20 years since […]
