The startup Ferveret, founded by MIT Associate Professor Matteo Bucci and former MIT postdoc Reza Azizian, reduces the energy required to cool chips in data centers that power AI.

Deep below the Himalayas, the Indian Plate appears to be peeling apart, offering a new view of mountain growth and hazard.

Researchers have successfully regenerated healthy knee cartilage in an osteoarthritic joint using a 3D-printed silk implant laced with a targeted drug, offering hope for a permanent cure to the debilitating joint disease.

A reactor at the world’s largest nuclear power plant in Japan has resumed operations. The country is pushing to maximize nuclear power generation to cope with growing electricity needs and a global oil crisis.

On a quiet weekend morning in a greenhouse in Aarhus University Flakkebjerg, rows of wheat plants stand with their roots submerged in clear water. There is no soil, no buffer, no automation to take over ...

Last week, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy boarded an early-stage helicopter-like aircraft ordinarily accessible only to test pilots. He went on to fly as a passenger for 22 minutes in the noncertified electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicle.

Stephen Hawking predicted that stars can capture primordial black holes (PBH). The PBH find their way to the stellar core, creating a Hawking star. There are two possible outcomes, both deadly for the star. Either it explodes rapidly, or it's slowly consumed…

Researchers have shown that controlled fire whirls can clean up oil spills faster and more cleanly than traditional burning methods. The spinning flames consumed up to 95% of the oil, cut soot emissions by 40%, and could help prevent spills from reaching…

Light: Science & Applications - Thermally tunable free-standing silicon membrane metasurfaces support high-Q infrared transparency resonances arising from q-BIC and surface lattice mode...

Astronergy has launched its Astro N8 Pro series at SNEC 2026, introducing n-type TOPCon modules with power ratings of up to 825 W and efficiencies of up to 24.5%.

Researchers in China have successfully tested a huge airborne coil array that could detect hidden nuclear submarines beneath the sea.

New photos of the future ballistic missile submarine USS District of Columbia (SSBN-826) surfaced online via Ashley Cowen's (Lead Photographer at Newport News Shipbuilding) LinkedIn page.

Although self-driving cars and sophisticated robots use advanced cameras, computer algorithms and artificial intelligence to perceive their surroundings, these artificial eyes struggle to remain reliable ...

MIT researchers have shown that one fuel can power both chemical and electric spacecraft thrusters, potentially transforming what small satellites can do. The approach combines quick bursts of speed with highly efficient long-range propulsion in a single…

The fossil trove uncovered ancient birds, frogs, and extinctions long before humans arrived.

The nanoscale world appears to have a new ball to kick around. Researchers from Brown University have shown the first experimental evidence for a "buckyball" molecule made from 80 boron atoms. The new ...

Studying physics can be very useful – even when it comes to machine learning. A digital ‘super-brain’ with built-in knowledge of the fundamental laws of nature can speed up the development of optical components for everything from quantum…
