Following a groundbreaking voyage to orbit the Moon, NASA’s Artemis II mission is now gearing up for its most exciting part, the homecoming back to Earth. The crew of four astronauts in the Orion capsule is about to go through an intense re-entry procedure and then land on Earth. This offers space enthusiasts worldwide a…
NASA’s latest Earth-observing instruments are redefining society’s ability to hold those responsible for pollution accountable. The Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, Ocean Ecosystem (PACE) satellite was launched on February 8, 2024, with a primary goal of assessing the health of Earth’s oceans. However, PACE now serves an additional purpose as a guide for air quality management. Using…

Synthetic DNA’s incorporation into electronics is changing neuromorphic computing’s methodology and is the new way of addressing the rising energy costs associated with current Artificial Intelligence. Integrating molecularly engineered DNA sequences with quasi-2D perovskite semiconductor materials allows researchers to create ‘memristors,’ or memory resistors, based on the brain’s ability to create new memories through synaptic…
Go out at night when the sky is clear and take a look around more often than not, you’ll see fewer stars than your grandparents did when they were young. And this isn’t just an illusion; satellite measurements now show that the Earth is becoming increasingly bright at night, thanks to the rapid proliferation of…
