From an astronaut’s point of view, the debris issue isn’t theoretical—it’s existential. Atienza, an analogue astronaut who trains for Mars-like missions on Earth, says space junk is already a day-to-day operational risk. “Even a tiny…
Many marine species are no strangers to the depths of the oceans. Some animals, like certain sharks, tuna, or turtles, routinely perform extreme dives, whereas for other species such behavior has been…
For years, scientists have known that tiny chemical patterns can form inside metal alloys, but most assumed these patterns were insignificant or disappeared during manufacturing. Recent experiments have shown that in controlled lab conditions,…
A friend’s struggles with arthritis and the finger braces used to manage it inspired research by a Carnegie Mellon University student that could make it easier for patients to follow rehabilitation plans, speed up recovery times and…
Darwin Quiroz is exploring new frontiers in miniature lasers with major biomedical applications.
When Quiroz first started working with optics as an undergraduate, he was developing atomic magnetometers. That experience sparked a growing…
When we form a memory, brain cells need to deliver supplies to strengthen specific neural connections. A new study from MPFI and Weill Cornell Medicine has revealed how two cellular switches, Rab4 and Rab10, direct supplies to where…
Also known as the Orionids, the Orionid meteor shower is caused by debris from Halley’s Comet. As these bits of matter heat up and hurtle towards the Earth, they create and leave behind glowing streaks in the…
