For millions of patients with diabetes, daily insulin injections are a necessary nuisance. A once-a-week shot might be more palatable, and new results from phase 2 clinical trials suggest just such a drug is safe and effective.Continue ReadingCategory:… Continue reading Once-a-week insulin bolstered by results of phase 2 clinical trials
NASA has made history today, conducting the very first powered flight on another planet. The Mars Helicopter Ingenuity successfully took to the Red Planet skies for a brief jaunt, which will hopefully be the first of several.Continue ReadingCategory: S… Continue reading NASA’s Mars Helicopter makes historic first flight
With elusive dark matter continuing to evade detection, scientists are having to search in stranger and stranger places. In a new study, physicists at MIT have studied the spins of black holes for signs of drag from dark matter slowing them down.Contin… Continue reading Physicists hunt for dark matter dragging on black holes
NASA has awarded SpaceX a contract to develop the lunar lander for the Artemis program, which will ferry humans to and from the surface of the Moon in 2024. SpaceX’s Starship prototype beat out competing companies Blue Origin and Dynetics for the job.C… Continue reading NASA selects SpaceX Starship to ferry next humans to the Moon
While dinosaurs roamed the Earth, flying reptiles called pterosaurs ruled the skies above. These included the largest animals to ever take flight, and a new study has uncovered some of the biological secrets that helped them grow so large. CT scans hav… Continue reading Bizarre bones helped giant pterosaurs straighten up and fly light
The mystery of fast radio bursts (FRBs) from space may be a step closer to being solved. Astronomers studying a repeating signal from a nearby galaxy have detected radiation at the lowest frequency of any FRB found so far, providing new potential hints… Continue reading Astronomers detect new frequencies from mysterious fast radio bursts
In a breakthrough new study, scientists have created human-monkey chimera embryos for the first time. These chimeras pave the way for more accurate models of human biology and disease, which could open up a range of new medical benefits. But of course … Continue reading Human-monkey chimera embryos created in lab for first time
Concrete is the most commonly used building material in the world, but unfortunately the cement used to make it carries quite a carbon footprint. Now, scientists at the University of Tokyo have created a cement-free alternative that directly bonds sand… Continue reading Cement-free concrete recipe bonds sand using alcohol
Researchers at the University at Buffalo have developed a new method for 3D printing graphene aerogels that work well as water filters. The team says this technique helps make graphene aerogels scalable and stable enough to be used over and over.Contin… Continue reading 3D-printed graphene aerogel makes efficient, scalable water filter
Samsung is off to a flying start with its 2021 phones, having already unveiled both its flagships and its mid-rangers. But just how much of a difference is there between the two? New Atlas compares the specs and features of the Samsung Galaxy A52, A52 … Continue reading Samsung Galaxy A52, A52 5G and A72 vs. Galaxy S21, S21+ and S21 Ultra
