| New study estimates the odds of life and intelligence emerging beyond our planet Posted: 18 May 2020 01:26 PM PDT Humans have been wondering whether we alone in the universe since antiquity. We know from the geological record that life started relatively quickly, as soon our planet's environment was stable enough to support it. We also know that the first multicellular organism, which eventually produced today's technological civilization, took far longer to evolve, approximately 4 billion years. |
| Exoplanet climate 'decoder' aids search for life Posted: 18 May 2020 12:49 PM PDT After examining a dozen types of suns and a roster of planet surfaces, astronomers have developed a practical model - an environmental color ''decoder'' - to tease out climate clues for potentially habitable exoplanets in galaxies far away. |
| No evidence of an influence of dark matter on the force between nuclei Posted: 18 May 2020 11:49 AM PDT Although most of the universe is made up of dark matter, very little is known about it. Physicists have used a high-precision experiment to look for interaction between dark matter and normal matter. |
| Engineers develop low-cost, high-accuracy GPS-like system for flexible medical robots Posted: 18 May 2020 08:17 AM PDT Roboticists have developed an affordable, easy to use system to track the location of flexible surgical robots inside the human body. The system performs as well as current state of the art methods, but is much less expensive. Many current methods also require exposure to radiation, while this system does not. |
| Bizarre new species discovered... on Twitter Posted: 15 May 2020 08:56 AM PDT A new species of fungus has been discovered via Twitter and christened accordingly -- Troglomyces twitteri. This unique fungal parasite grows around the reproductive organs of millipedes. |
