The Arctic tundra has become greener since 1985, according to NASA study
Rising temperatures have turned the Arctic tundra greener, says a recent study from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Tundra, which comes from a Finnish word meaning “treeless plain,” is the coldest of all land biomes. The region is characterized by limited biodiversity, short growing seasons and frost-molded landscapes low in nutrients. For those reasons, only a select group […]

Moon-creating collision may have stripped up to 60 percent of ancient Earth’s atmosphere
Ancient Earth may have lost as much as 60 percent of its atmosphere as a result of the collision that created the moon, suggests a recent study published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters. An international team of researchers ran hundreds of computer simulations that each showed the effects of an impactor with a unique set of characteristics […]

Study: Vitamin D deficiency linked to a greater risk of diabetes-related early death
A recent study has drawn a link between vitamin D deficiency and a greater risk of diabetes-related death. This link, the researchers from the Medical University of Vienna noted, was especially pronounced in younger and middle-aged people. Vitamin D also called the sunshine vitamin, is best known for keeping bones healthy by promoting calcium absorption. It also helps regulate cell growth, […]

Sweet salvation: Using sugar for treating wounds
When SHTF, sugar may just save you. While it may often get the flak for its link to diabetes, it has medicinal uses too as a recent study shows that sugar can help treat wounds and ward off infection. The study emerged thanks to an African nurse working in a U.K. hospital. Moses Murandu noticed that conventional drug therapy failed […]

Amazing Earth: The planet’s magnetic poles can flip more frequently than originally thought
Earth is wrapped by a magnetic field powered by the churning of hot molten metals in the outer core. Thanks to this invisible field, the planet is protected from the solar wind and cosmic particles, permitting just enough radiation to tide humans by. This magnetic field, however, can flip and does so many times every million years or so, […]

Scientists identify link between gut bacteria, muscle growth and function
Gut bacteria may play a role in muscle growth and formation, says a recent study. This is great news for those with skeletal muscle loss, especially since the findings say that changing the microbial composition may help with the condition. An international team of researchers conducted a series of experiments on mice to examine the link between the […]

Klebsiella pneumonia: The bad gut bacteria that makes you drunk even without alcohol
It turns out, you don’t need alcohol to get drunk, says a recent study published in the journal Cell Metabolism. Scientists have identified a certain strain of gut bacteria that produces enormous amounts of alcohol. Those who have the strain in the gut aren’t just more likely to get drunk even without tasting a drop of alcohol; […]

Free fuel for satellites: Large asteroids close to Earth could be mined for water, suggest researchers
It appears the Moon isn’t the best option for mining water in space. Recent research published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets found that asteroids close to Earth may be rich in water, making them better candidates for space mining. Researchers identified several of these asteroids and said that they are easier to reach than the Moon. Most of these near-Earth objects (NEOs) […]

Fast, quiet, invisible: Scientists develop squid robots with potential military, scientific applications
Scientists have designed a squid-like robot with potential scientific and military applications, thanks to its high-speed, quiet propulsion techniques. Physicists from the University of California, San Diego based the design on the unique and efficient swimming strategy of squids and other cephalopods. It’s made of smart materials that make them difficult to detect, which is why it’s an ideal weapon for […]
