Salt Coated Comets may have Delivered Life’s Ingredients to Earth
The mystery of missing nitrogen and a chance encounter with a salty cloud of dust have provided further evidence that the key ingredients of life were seeded on Earth by comets.

Researchers have developed specially designed vacuum suction units that will allow robots to scale walls. The unit can be used on surfaces regardless of their texture, this includes rough walls. The device has applications in the development of climbing robots and robot arms with massively improved grasping capabilities.
NASA and ESA celebrate the 29th Birthday of the Hubble space telescope on 24th April 2019 with a stunning image of the Southern Crab Nebula.
After unusual inspiration in the form of youtube pranks and the Disney movie, ‘Frozen’, researchers have discovered a hidden property of supercooled water which may assist in the search for dark matter
Gamma-ray bursts are some of the most energetic events in the entire Universe, yet until now, the mechanism for these outflows has remained something of a mystery
Dark matter is the hypothetical substance that is thought to make up as much as 90% of the mass of the Universe Despite not knowing exactly what it is, scientists have robust methods of dark matter detection.
On Einstein’s birthday, March 14th, physicists have announced they have once again tested and confirmed the predictions made by Einstein’s theory of special relativity — devised over 100 years ago.
A group of enterprising quantum physicists have managed to reverse time for a single particle challenging our perception that time’s arrow runs only in one direction.
Researchers have used a supercomputer solved a puzzle in the process of beta decay which has lingered for half a century, capturing a glimpse of physics beyond the standard model.
Quantum computing has long faced a major hindrance — the ability to preserve information requires controlling for energy losses and shifts. Researchers have found a different approach which may provide a solution to this problem
