Scientists at Cern, home to the largest particle accelerator in the world, have introduced a plan for a new, significantly larger collider called the Future Circular Collider (FCC), as reported by the BBC. This ambitious project, estimated to cost around $21 billion, is intended to take physics research to new heights, delving into unexplored realms like dark matter and dark …

In a groundbreaking scientific achievement, researchers have successfully developed the world’s first 3D-printed brain tissue that mimics the functionality of natural brain tissue. This innovation marks a significant step forward in the quest for advanced treatments for various neurological and neurodevelopmental conditions, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. This development is particularly beneficial for research focused on these disorders, providing a …

The search for extraterrestrial life is set to enter an exciting new phase in the coming decade thanks to the introduction of advanced next-generation telescopes. A recent study published in the Astronomical Journal highlights the fascinating prospects that lie ahead in the hunt for life on exoplanets. Scientists will utilize Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs) to focus on ten rocky exoplanets, …

A team of engineers and scientists has embarked on a mission to Antarctica to test an autonomous drone designed to aid in forecasting the effects of climate change. This drone is tasked with mapping previously uncharted areas of the continent, particularly those hidden beneath the ice sheet, to provide insights into the rate of ice melt and its contribution to …

A recent study published in Astrobiology suggests that four types of bacteria known to cause illness in humans on Earth may have the potential to survive and thrive under the harsh conditions of Mars if carried by astronauts. Scientists conducted an experiment where colonies of Burkholderia cepacia, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Serratia marcescens were placed in a box designed …

Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, recently hinted at the introduction of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) into Apple’s product lineup. This move is seen as an effort to catch up with rivals like Google and Samsung, who have already integrated generative AI features into their smartphones. During Apple’s quarterly earnings call on Thursday, Cook discussed the company’s AI initiatives, revealing plans to …

Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have uncovered that primordial black holes (PBHs), formed shortly after the Big Bang nearly 12.8 billion years ago, might be influencing Earth’s orbital path. These PBHs, tiny in size but with a density akin to asteroids, pass by our solar system approximately every ten years, potentially causing perturbations in the orbits of …

In the dynamic world of commercial space launches, where the ability to carry large payloads translates to higher profits, there’s an increasing demand for rockets capable of transporting large satellites. This demand is driven by both private companies and governments keen on establishing their own satellite networks and heavy communication satellites. In this market, NewSpace India Limited (NSIL), a commercial …
