| Posted: 23 Jun 2012 11:56 AM PDT You can freeze it, thaw it, vacuum dry it and expose it to radiation, but still life survives. Research on the International Space Station is giving credibility to theories that life came from outer space -- as well as helping to create better sunscreens. |
| Bringing down the cost of microbial fuel cells Posted: 23 Jun 2012 06:44 AM PDT A new catalyst material could dramatically reduce the cost of producing microbial fuel cells. |
| Forgotten star cluster now found useful in studies of Sun and hunt for Earth-like planets Posted: 23 Jun 2012 06:43 AM PDT A loose group of stars, known for over 180 years but never before studied in detail, has been revealed to be an important new tool in the quest to understand the evolution of stars like the Sun, and in the search for planets like Earth. The star cluster holds great promise for use as a standard gauge in fundamental stellar astrophysics. |
| New technique allows simulation of noncrystalline materials Posted: 23 Jun 2012 06:43 AM PDT Scientists have found a new mathematical approach to simulating the electronic behavior of noncrystalline materials, which may eventually play an important part in new devices including solar cells, organic LED lights and printable, flexible electronic circuits. |
| Put a cork in it: Research details quiet composite material Posted: 22 Jun 2012 01:29 PM PDT Cork, known for such low-tech applications as wine bottle stoppers and bulletin boards, now shows promise as the core material in composites used in high-tech automotive, aircraft and energy applications. |
