Scientists in the UK have developed a new method for removing toxic “forever chemicals” from wastewater. Specially treated, 3D-printed ceramic lattices can remove up to 75% of the chemicals from polluted water in three hours – and the structures get be… Continue reading Reusable ‘waffle stacks’ pull toxic ‘forever chemicals’ from water
Hydrogen-fueled combustion engines have slowly emerged in the mobility world, designed to run everything from race cars to pleasure boats. The latest hydrogen ICE to rumble to life was born with a special mission at its core: claim an all-out land spee… Continue reading Hydrogen combustion engine fires up on road to land speed record run
An experimental new forensic spray allows latent fingerprints to be made visible in just 10 seconds, plus it doesn’t require the use of any messy powders. What it does incorporate, however, is a glowing protein that’s obtained from jellyfish.Continue R… Continue reading Glowing jellyfish protein lights the way for better lifting of fingerprints
If Tyrannosaurus rex is too mainstream, discerning 10-year-olds may now have a new name to spout when asked their favorite dinosaur – Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis. The newly identified species appears to be more primitive than its famous cousin, but just a… Continue reading New species of giant Tyrannosaurus predates T. rex by 6 million years
The debate rages on about whether fossils of small tyrannosaurs were a distinct species or just juvenile T. rexes. A new study claims to have found evidence that a mini tyrannosaur species stomped around alongside its famous, giant cousin – but other s… Continue reading Tiny tyrannosaurs are separate species, not baby T. rexes, says study
At disaster sites, it’s not uncommon for both the water supply and electrical grid to be out of commission. That’s where a new system may someday come in, as it utilizes just a small amount of electricity – which could be stored in a battery – to desal… Continue reading Low-power desalination tech may provide drinking water at disaster sites
In order to smuggle illegal drugs into prisons, people are now soaking materials like paper and fabric in such drugs, letting the materials dry, then passing them along to inmates. A new portable device, however, sees through that ruse.Continue Reading… Continue reading Handheld device could soon keep dangerous drugs from going to prison
Breathing exercises – in which a person takes slow, deep breaths – have been shown to reduce stress and anxiety. Focusing on breathing in this manner can be difficult, however, which is where the PAWS “breathing ball” is designed to come in.Continue Re… Continue reading PAWS ball helps calm people by breathing along with them
Paracetamol and ibuprofen are among the world’s most common over-the-counter painkillers, but manufacturing them requires crude oil. Now, researchers at the University of Bath have developed a more sustainable method, creating the drugs out of waste pr… Continue reading Painkiller producers could pivot to paper waste instead of crude oil
Scientists have discovered a new species of mosasaur, a giant sea-dwelling lizard that dates back to the age of the dinosaurs, that stands out because of its unique, star-shaped teeth.Continue ReadingCategory: ScienceTags: Fossils, Paleontology, Teeth,… Continue reading Star-shaped teeth lead to discovery of new mosasaur species in Morocco
