An improvement to a Nobel Prize-winning technology called a frequency comb enables it to measure light pulse arrival times with greater sensitivity than was previously possible — potentially improving measurements of distance along with applications such as precision timing and atmospheric sensing.
The mystery of the origin of hydrocarbons found in extraterrestrial environment may finally be resolved, thanks to a technique based on a 13C-13C abundance analysis. By measuring the abundance of clumped 13C-13C isotope in the hydrocarbons, it can be inferred if a hydrocarbon was produced
Exposure in utero to a specific flame retardant, or to its individual brominated (BFR) or organophosphate ester (OPFR) components, resulted in altered brain development in newborn rats.
An Earth-like planet orbiting an M dwarf — the most common type of star in the universe — appears to have no atmosphere at all. This discovery could cause a major shift in the search for life on other planets.
It seems that a little Martian dust can go a long way. A strong, high-performance material was generated by mixing a little amount of artificially crushed Martian rock with a titanium alloy.
This material may one day be used on Mars for 3D printing tools
Scientists have built models that directly recreate the whole life cycle of some of the greatest clusters of galaxies observed in the distant cosmos 11 billion years ago, according to a new study published in Nature Astronomy.
Northwestern University engineers have created the world’s tiniest remote-controlled walking robot crab.
MIT researchers have invented an ultrathin loudspeaker that can turn any hard surface into a high-quality active audio source. Because of the simple fabrication technology they devised, thin-film electronics can now be mass-produced on a large scale.
According to the researchers, it just took a few human examples to teach a robot how to conduct a new pick-and-place activity. According to the researchers, this could allow a human to teach a robot to retrieve previously unseen objects placed in random locations in

By measuring the abundance of clumped 13C-13C isotope in the hydrocarbons, it can be inferred if a hydrocarbon was produced via biological processes. This could open doors to distinguishing such hydrocarbons from abiotic ones, aiding our search for extra-terrestrial life.

According to the researchers, it just took a few human examples to teach a robot how to conduct a new pick-and-place activity. According to the researchers, this could allow a human to teach a robot to retrieve previously unseen objects placed in random locations in as little as 15 minutes.

Scible News was built because we believe that science communication is vital in the fight against misinformation. That is why we bring you the latest science news direct from hundreds of research organizations around the world and across every scientific discipline. We try to provide (where possible), direct links to the sources and original publications at the bottom of each news article, so you don’t have to waste time looking for the original publications.
