What Is It? The Sound of a Single Atom

Every nanosecond of every day, for millennia and eons, the atom has been hard at work construct every thing in the universe, from the air we breathe to the stars. But it hasn’t been a lack-luster job, as it seems, because apparently the atoms are still singing. Ever imagine what an atom were to sound like if we could hear it moving around? Well it turns out that some researchers have done just that, and they’re saying it sounds like a resounding D-note, 20 octaves above the highest note on a piano.

Wearable Robotics That Are a Walk In the Park

Developed at the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University, a new form of wearable robotics known as “the Soft Exosuit” is changing misconceptions of where robotic engineering meets biological form. Intended to be worn comfortably under traditional clothing, the Soft Exosuit is a form of technology designed with the wearer in mind with the goal of minimizing the energy required for physical movement--an important concept for soldiers in tough terrain and even those with limited mobility in the domestic domain.

Take A Trip to Quit—Psychedelic Mushrooms Help Lifetime Smokers Quit

Those who have tried their hand at quitting an addiction as compulsory as tobacco can attest that cessation is rarely a manageable goal. You may try once, you may try twice, but ultimately it is tobacco that wins the war, as typically less than 35% of smokers or tobacco users manage to quit the addiction. But what if something, like the magic mushrooms in Alice in Wonderland, were able to make you suddenly kick the cravings? Well it turns out you’re in for a psychedelic surprise.

NASA SLS Unveils Largest Spacecraft Welder to Build the Most Powerful Rocket to Date

Ever wonder what you’d need to build the world’s largest spacecraft? The world’s largest tools, of course. Looking to usher in a new era of space exploration, late last August NASA approved the next generation of American rockets, known as the Space Launch System (SLS). Built for deep-space missions the core stage of the rocket is more than 200 feet tall and 27.6 feet in diameter, allowing enough space to fuel four RS-25 engines.

Solar Storm Causes Aurora Across Northern Skies

With a giant solar storm erupting just last week, causing cosmic disturbances emanating from the center of the sun, the northern skies have welcomed the arrival of aurora lights. Reaching as far south as New York, the record-breaking Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) of early last week’s solar storm brought with a gust of solar wind, an illuminating spectacle of lights across the sky.
