A neglected rare-earth element could change the way we tell time
Among the rare-earth elements, lutetium doesn’t get enough attention. But this may soon change as a new type of clock that uses lutetium could tell more accurate time to the second, an article in Live Science states. Starting in 1967, a second was officially defined as the amount of time it took a cesium atom to […]

Space manufacturing: Scientists looking toward the stars to create stronger materials
Space might be dangerous, but it also possesses unique qualities that make it perfect for producing certain materials and products. According to a Space.com article, experts and researchers believe stronger materials, bigger and purer crystals, and even new organs can be developed and manufactured in space. Microgravity permits the unhindered growth, even mixing, and cementing […]

Space mining could turn out to be a trillion-dollar industry, say experts
The Space Race was originally driven by national prestige, scientific curiosity, and technological prowess. Tourism eventually joined those lofty reasons, being backed by big names and big money. In a CNBC article, the potentially huge profits of space mining are the newest reason to get into space. Space tourism is slowly but steadily becoming a […]

Physicists are one step closer to developing optoelectronic devices that are smaller and more powerful
Swiss physicists from ETH Zurich have succeeded in measuring electron response in a semiconductor at the attosecond (one quintillionth of a second) timescale. This startling breakthrough is expected to spur the development of optoelectronic devices that can operate in the petahertz level, reported Science Daily. The previous maximum resolution of electron response was below a femtosecond […]

Scientists have figured out how to project 3D images into thin air, Star Wars style
Scientists are coming close to realizing that iconic 3D hologram scene from the movie Star Wars, reported a Daily Mail article. And instead of projected light, they’re controlling dust-sized particles to make 3D imagery that promises to do one better than current holographic technology. Published in the science journal Nature, the study (aptly titled “The […]

Mars Helicopter to travel with NASA during Red Planet Rover mission scheduled on 2020
NASA has already put space probes in orbit around Mars and rovers on its surface. In a few more years, it will put a helicopter in the skies of the Red Planet, the space agency announced on its homepage. When the Mars 2020 planetary mission takes off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, it will be […]

Better, more affordable smart glass goes from transparent to opaque when compromised
A researcher from the University of Delaware (UD) presented the latest prototype of a smart glass that’s better and cheaper than anything on the market or in development, reported NewsWise. During the SPIE Smart Materials and Nondestructive Evaluation for Energy Systems IV conference in Denver, Colorado, Keith Goossen showed the newest iteration of the smart […]

Future missions to Mars being made to detect amino acids
The soil on Mars is filled with chemical compounds that make short work of organic compounds. Yet NASA remains hopeful about finding signs of life on the Red Planet, so the agency developed an experiment for a future Mars mission that can detect amino acids, an article in Space.com stated. Amino acids are considered to […]

New generation of superconductors use high entropy alloys
In a recent Science Daily article, Japanese researchers presented the first of a new generation of superconductors. These highly-conductive materials incorporate a high-entropy alloy made from not just one or two or even three, but five separate rare earth metals (REMs). The researchers combined layers of bismuth sulfide (BiS2) superconductor with high-entropy REM alloy oxyfluoride. […]

New “densified” super wood could replace steel, is lighter and cheaper
Imagine an incredibly dense type of wood that has more than 10 times the strength and durability of natural lumber, making it more than a match for metal alloys. Well, you can stop imagining, because a Maryland-based research team devised a process to turn that hypothetical wood into reality. Humans have used wood for thousands of years to build […]
