In a first, researchers at Dublin have created printed transistors consisting of only two-dimensional nanomaterials. The researchers combined graphene nanosheets with conducting materials to make the transistor. The low-cost printed electronics can be applied in food packaging to display a digital countdown to warn of spoiling or on milk cartons to send notifications to phones about expiry.
A NASA study has provided observational proof of a 50-year-old plasma wave theory where certain waves act as energy transporters in plasma, which is commonly called the fourth state of matter. The study validated the energy transfer ability of the particle-trapping "kinetic Alfvén wave," revealing small-scale complexities that could reshape our understanding of plasma physics.
An Egyptian excavation team has discovered a new pyramid.
A new study has revealed the formula for perfect lips and why scientists think Emma Watson bested other celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson.
The oldest woman to ever travel to space will be staying for an additional three months aboard the International Space Station. NASA's Peggy Whitson is also set to break another record by being the U.S. astronaut who has stayed the longest in space. She is also the female astronaut to have spent the most hours during spacewalks.
For the first time, scientists have discovered an atmosphere around a low-mass super-Earth that is just a little bit larger than our planet.
A cure continues to be sought in the fight against HIV/AIDS. That is why the United Nations is calling for a global effort to attain a 90-90-90 percent outcome.
French scientists are searching for young and fit men who can lie in bed for two months. Researchers from the Space Medical Institute in France are studying microgravity and its effects, and are offering volunteers up to $17,000 just to stay in bed.
A red and dead galaxy, which formed like a firecracker at the start of cosmic history, has three times more stars than the Milky Way.
NASA's Saturn spacecraft Cassini will soon complete its final orbit around the majestic ringed planet and will make its "Grand Finale" on April 26, Wednesday. This last maneuver involves completing dives within Saturn's atmosphere and in between its rings.
