Vitamin A is a powerful antioxidant that can slow down the process of aging
Taking vitamin A is not just good for improving and maintaining your eyes. It brings a host of health benefits involving many other important parts of the body. An article in Life Force Homeopathy even dubbed it the “angel vitamin” because it can keep you looking and feeling young. This underrated nutrient spurts the growth […]

“Solar flow battery” soaks up sunlight and stores it as energy for on-demand use
A joint effort between American and Saudi Arabian researchers produced a gadget that combines the functions of a battery and a solar cell. They reported that their “solar flow battery” can absorb sunlight, convert it into chemical energy, and hold the energy until there is need for it. The Science Daily article explained that the […]

Strongest known material in the universe found in the crust of neutron stars
Deep beneath the surface of immensely dense neutron stars lie what is perhaps the strongest matter known to science. It also happens to be named after one of the most well-known and tasty foods in Italian cuisine, an article in Science Daily reported. This material is called “nuclear pasta.” Despite the name that combines radioactive horror […]

A trip to Mars would heavily irradiate astronauts with potentially deadly doses of cosmic radiation
Dr. McCoy of Star Trek once described space as disease and danger wrapped in darkness and silence. The fictional character is now being echoed by Bulgarian researchers, who claim that manned deep-space missions to Mars will face extreme dangers far greater than those encountered by the Apollo missions. The researchers based their claims on the […]

Scientists: Solar-powered water splitting is a promising means of generating clean energy
Water is already a vital component of human life, but scientists have found yet another use for it — as a source of clean fuel. It comprises two oxygen atoms and a hydrogen atom — the latter, in particular, is an increasingly popular energy source because it is easily stored and holds a lot of energy. […]

Study explores semi-artificial photosynthesis; a new way to produce and store solar energy
Researchers found a better way to squeeze more electricity out of solar power. An article in Science Daily described how they modified photosynthesis so that it could split water into its component molecules. In the photosynthetic process, sunlight is used by plants, some bacteria, and certain protists to turn carbon dioxide and water into food. Oxygen is […]

Does sound have mass? Yes it does, according to researchers who make bizzare claim about “phonons”
Sound has “negative mass,” according to an article in Live Science. [Editor’s note: This study is fascinating, but surely must be either a prank or an error. We cover it here because of its novelty, but we do not endorse its flawed conclusion. No doubt the researchers will soon discover they made a measurement error, and […]

What happens when galaxies collide? NASA studies the small, dense corpses left after a stellar explosion
Long after we are gone, our Milky Way Galaxy will crash into the Andromeda Galaxy, forever changing the faces of both galaxies. Today, NASA researchers are studying the aftermath of a similar galactic collision to help predict what is going to happen to our galaxy in that distant future, an article in LiveScience stated. The […]

Scientists create a material that has near-zero friction at engineering scale
American researchers have improved upon their earlier graphene-based lubricant. Their revised formula can actually generate itself and has a longer useful lifespan compared to other solid lubricants, an article in Nanowerks reported. Superlubricity is a state where there is very little friction. A surface coated by a superlubricant is very slippery and barely gives off […]

Singaporean engineers build a quadcopter drone that runs entirely on sunlight
There is something missing on the newest aerial drone presented by Singaporean researchers. The small electric aircraft does not bother with a battery or other form of energy storage systems. Instead, it gets all of its power from the sun. Designed by National University of Singapore (NUS) students, the prototype quadcopter takes up as much […]
