Checking whether an avocado is hard or soft by looking at it? This would require recognizing how the plant cells behave behind the skin. The same applies to all other cells on our planet: Despite more than 100 years of intensive research, many of their properties remain hidden inside the cell.

Who wants to make a TRACTOR pull request?

The decision is a major blow to Alphabet, Google’s parent company, and could reshape how technology giants operate.

In a feat of modern-day alchemy, scientists have used a beam of vaporized titanium to create one of the heaviest elements on Earth – and they think this new method could pave the way to even heftier horizons.

This is the first time the new technique – in which a hunk of the rare isotope titanium-50 is heated to almost 1,650 °C (3000 °F) to release ions that are beamed at another element – has successfully produced a superheavy element, livermorium.

Livermorium was first synthesized back in 2000, and it’s not the heaviest element humans have created (that would be oganesson, atomic number 118).

There are three main phases to the EÑSO, La Niña, Neutral, and El Niño. Currently, we are seeing a transition from El Niño to La Niña.

Aristotle was a revolutionary ancient thinker, and modern-day philosophy continues to build on his ideas.

We occasionally see animals that don’t look like they belong in the 21st century. Here are seven prehistoric-looking creatures that stand out more than most.

A research group led by Prof. Liang Xu from the Anhui Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of Chinese Academy of Sciences, propose a coupling analysis model revealing the flow characteristics and control laws of a multi-needle Electrohydrodynamics (EHD) pump.
