CLOSING THE LOOP: Company makes clean fuel from non-recyclable plastics
Non-recyclable plastics are ubiquitous waste materials in all parts of the globe. But one company has found good use for these materials by converting these into fuels for airplanes and ships. Moreover, the company’s resulting marine and aviation fuels emit 75 percent less carbon dioxide than their conventional counterparts. British company Clean Planet Energy (CPE) is looking to give non-recyclable […]

Russia developing its first DNA printer to synthesize short DNA fragments
Scientists in Siberia are working on a project to develop Russia’s first DNA printer, with a prototype expected in 2024. The National Research Tomsk State University announced the groundbreaking initiative. The Russian developers are aiming to create a printer that can synthesize short DNA fragments, or oligonucleotides, and then assemble them into longer strands to […]

Scientists turn single-use plastics into jet fuel
Single-use plastics like plastic bags and plastic bottles could provide airplanes with the fuel they need to fly. In a recent breakthrough, a team of researchers from the University of Delaware found a way to break down single-use plastic waste into smaller carbon molecules, which can be used for jet fuel and diesel. Using an energy-efficient […]

Mars may harbor alien life beneath its surface, study suggests
A new study published in the journal Astrobiology suggests that the subsurface of Mars may be habitable. In the study, researchers explain that the same chemical reactions supporting microbial life deep beneath the Earth’s surface can occur in the Martian underground. An important component for those reactions is water, and past studies suggest that Mars may be hosting groundwater. “The […]

Methanol fuel cells shown to provide higher efficiency than pure hydrogen
A new analysis shows that methanol fuel cells are more efficient at producing electricity than hydrogen fuel cells. Fuel cells use hydrogen – the most abundant element in the universe – to produce clean and efficient electricity to power cars, trucks, buses and ships, as well as even homes and businesses. Hydrogen is considered the cleanest […]

Over 5,000 tons of extraterrestrial dust from comets and asteroids bombard Earth every year – study
In a study published on April 15 in the journal Earth and Planetary Science Letters, an international team of researchers found that more than 5,000 tons of extraterrestrial dust fall on the planet every year. Tiny meteors in the form of interplanetary dust bombard Earth all the time. Some of these particles travel at exceptional speeds and turn into shooting stars […]

Giant tortoises can remember their training even after 10 years – study
Scientists discovered that giant tortoises can remember skills that they learned a decade ago, exceeding their reputation as animals lacking in speed and cognitive ability. In their report, a research team from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology studied Galapagos and Seychelles tortoises at zoos in Vienna and Zurich for nine years. For their experiment, they trained the tortoises […]

Astronomers develop new method to detect mysterious radio bursts from billions of light years away using AI
A doctorate student from Australia developed an automated system to detect fast radio bursts (FRBs), or mysterious and powerful flashes from outer space. In his report, Wael Farah from the Swinburne Institute of Technology discussed how he built the UTMOST FRB search program, an automated system for capturing FRBs using artificial intelligence (AI) at the Molonglo Radio Observatory.

Save the whales: This new detection method can help researchers find and count stranded whales… from SPACE
Advancements in satellite imaging analysis may soon make it easier for scientists to detect, count and help stranded whales, a study has found. Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), together with four Chilean research institutes, said the new image analysis and detection method, which involves the use of very high resolution (VHR) satellite images […]

“Forever” diamond battery takes up to 28,000 years to run out of charge
California startup Nano Diamond Battery (NDB) says it has designed a battery made from nuclear waste that will take up to 28,000 years to run out of charge. The “forever” diamond battery was developed for use in deep space and other niche applications, but a consumer-facing prototype is also in the works. The firm said that the latter model will be able to last for nine consecutive years. It […]
