Space spiders eat the space insects in your house.
James Webb Space Telescope’s newest infrared images reveal star formation in the Tarantula Nebula and may shed light on nebulae in the early universe.
They created a cylindrical prototype resembling a Chia pet.
We can observe how far the architecture has progressed with the developing technology today. Referring to this, we have even seen houses made with 3D printing technology.
Now, a group of scientists from the University of Virginia is raising the bars of 3D printing technology by producing 3D-print soil structures which can grow plants on their surfaces.
Scalable technology can work in relative humidity of four percent too.
An international collaboration of researchers has successfully demonstrated the production of green hydrogen directly from the air, a press release said.
Solar and wind installations are picking up steam as the world looks toward greener energy sources. Although energy is generated in an emission-free way in these methods, energy storage requires large batteries, which do not fit into the idea of sustainable living.
It was the country’s 35th successful rocket launch this year.
China’s space agency, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) continues its impressive launch cadence for this year with its latest launch. The agency launched a mystery spy satellite that may gather military intelligence for the country, a report from Space.com reveals.
The satellite, called Yaogan 33, launched atop China’s Long March 4C rocket from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the Gobi Desert at 7:44 pm (23:44 GMT) on Friday, September 2.

The price has increased by $3,000, but Tesla’s FSD is still a work-in-progress.
Tesla’s Full Self-Driving Beta option now costs a hefty $15,000. Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced on Twitter late last month that it would increase the option’s price by $3,000.

While business transformation has always been critical to staying relevant and competitive, global disruptions brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic created an urgency to accelerate innovation to keep pace with market conditions and changes in customer demand. In fact, many digitally transformed companies have not only survived — they’ve thrived.
According to a 2021 McKinsey Survey, top-performing companies now obtain a larger share of their sales from products or services that didn’t exist just one year ago. These companies are making more aggressive plans to differentiate themselves with technology, and some are preparing to reinvent their value proposition altogether.
A relatively new kind of semiconductor, layered atop a mirror-like structure, can mimic the way that leaves move energy from the sun over relatively long distances before using it to fuel chemical reactions. The approach may one day improve the efficiency of solar cells.
“Energy transport is one of the crucial steps for solar energy harvesting and conversion in solar cells,” said Bin Liu, a postdoctoral researcher in electrical and computer engineering and first author of the study in the journal Optica.
“We created a structure that can support hybrid light-matter mixture states, enabling efficient and exceptionally long-range energy transport.”
