Scientists develop liquid that changes color with heat
Thermochromic materials are “smart” materials that change their color depending on the temperature of their surroundings. Recently, a Singaporean research team presented a liquid that grew much darker as it got hotter. Their invention might prove useful in smart windows and other applications that respond to temperature changes. Unlike earlier examples that relied on dyes […]

The Jetsons are here: Flying, driverless car takes its first test flight in Vienna
For the first time in Europe, a Chinese-designed flying taxi took to the skies over Vienna, Austria. Its developers claimed that the small test flight for the mega-drone represented a giant leap for urban mobility. The Ehang 216 self-flying taxi performed its maiden European flight at the Generali Arena in the Austrian capital. It flew in circles […]

Fancy new fabric reacts to body heat, automatically cools or insulates to keep you comfortable
People could keep their jumper dresses or sweaters on even when the weather got warmer – if their clothing used a newly developed self-cooling textile. A combination of ordinary wool and metal conductor, the fabric retains heat during cold times and vents that stored heat when the weather starts warming up. The material detects the temperature of its surroundings and adjusts its […]

Scientists reproduce an exotic form of magnesium and make some discoveries about its nuclear structure
Researchers previously created an exotic form of magnesium called magnesium-40 by adding as many neutrons as possible to the nucleus of the atom. Ten years later, a new research team came across new data on the nuclear structure of magnesium-40. The atomic number of an element depends on the number of positively-charged protons in its […]

Straight out of sci-fi? Researchers say that aliens use black holes to travel
Black holes possess immense amounts of energy, and this very property has given a researcher the idea to use black holes as “launch pads” for starships preparing to explore the deep space. The black holes would curve laser beams back toward a receiving starship, and the boost in energy would help accelerate large spacecraft to relativistic […]

Not as easy as in the movies: Scientists say blowing up asteroids that threaten life on Earth will be extremely difficult
Most Hollywood films that revolve around asteroid impacts end with the heroes successfully blowing up the incoming space rock in the nick of time. But researchers warn that a potential killer asteroid hurtling toward Earth is going to be much harder to stop in real life. Like many others before them, the Johns Hopkins University (JHU) looked […]

New cathodes can lead to smaller, more powerful lithium batteries
A joint effort between American and Chinese researchers have delivered a new take on the cathode of a lithium battery. Their prototype negatively-charged electrode will help reduce the size and weight of energy storage systems. A smaller, lighter lithium battery makes it possible to fit more cells aboard electric vehicles, extending their range and endurance. […]

Engineers develop high energy density all-solid-state batteries
Solid-state battery technology has reached a new milestone in terms of energy storage. Thanks to the new conducting material developed by Japanese researchers, all-solid-state batteries will boast the greatest energy density yet. The hydride lithium superionic conductor arranges clusters of hydrogen anions (negative ions) into specialized structures. The material displays far greater stability against lithium metal, the […]

Are people really considering going to the moon… to mine?
Experts from the legal, mining, and space science sectors consider the moon to be a New World full of natural resources. They believe that the mineral wealth of Earth’s “eighth continent” is there for the taking by anyone with money, political will, technology, and vision to land on the moon. Their new report discussed the requirements […]

Quantum particles can fly through barriers, just like ghosts
Particles that are smaller than an atom can behave very strangely, thanks to a process called “quantum tunneling.” They can zip through barriers that keep larger objects out, and they do this instantaneously. Researchers in Australia have spent years studying electrons as the subatomic particles move away from their parent hydrogen atom. They found that quantum tunneling […]
