In a recent study, researchers were able to move small objects made from graphene 'paper' by using heat and light.
It might sound sort of silly, but the muscle capacity of our legs may say something about the ageing brain, according to a recent study.
Researchers from the Southwest Research Institute carried out an experiment so they could determine why moon rocks contain fewer volatile elements than earth rocks.
Researchers have identified a gene that may help prevent many wheat diseases, according to a recent study.
MIT researchers have created a new method which will increase the amount of energy that is channelled from sunlight. This new technique involves a quantum process which increase the number of electrons produced when light strikes a metal-dielectric interface, like aluminum oxide.
A new vaccine may help lower the amount of "bad" cholesterol--or low-density lipoproteins (LDL)--which researchers believe could one day provide an alternative to statins.
A team of astronomers have found a key element that is used in the formation of stars - atomic gas. This study sheds new light on star formation and researchers can now look at this process from a different perspective.
Researchers have created an innovative temperature sensor that is printable, flexible and very light to carry. The new sensor can be used in health care and welfare applications, according to researchers at the University of Tokyo.
In a recent study researchers found that increasing Antarctic ice sheets caused ancient the Mediterranean Sea to dry up 5.6 million years ago. The new study hinted at future environmental changes due to melting ice masses and rising sea levels.
The curtains may be closing on the orca shows at SeaWorld. The park has announced that it will be phasing out its traditional Shamu show in San Diego and replace it with one that's less about tricks and more about orcas' natural behaviors in the wild.
Even normal weight people with excess fat around their middle may be at an increased risk of early death, according to a recent study.
NASA is learning more and more about Pluto as New Horizons continues to beam back data to Earth after its historic flyby. Now, researchers are getting a closer look at what appear to be icy mountains on the dwarf planet.
