Medicine & TechnologyA recent planetary and astronomical findings theorized that the dinosaur killer space rock Chicxulub was a dark primitive asteroid that originiated from the inner regions of the asteroid belt.
Slow-motion collisions of tectonic plates absorb more carbon in Earth's interior, unlike what previous studies state, says scientists from Cambridge University and NTU Singapore.
Researchers at the Northwestern University have recently formed a smarter, tougher, and highly functional cement by introducing nanoparticles into ordinary cement.
Almost half of the corn harvest ends up in waste, especially after the kernels have been harvested. A new study might offer another purpose for these discarded parts.
Using soundwaves, a team of University of Utah engineers and mathematicians demonstrated how to arrange carbon nanoparticles in water in a never-repeating pattern.
Experts estimate that 16% of the carbon in the world's oceans comes from fish poop, fish breath, and other fish excretions. This study is the first to identify the role of fish poop in the carbon flux in oceans.
Scientists created bendable concrete that can reduce carbon emissions. They also developed several concrete mixtures that are infused with carbon dioxide.
The world's richest man announced on his Twitter account that he would be giving a $100 million prize for the best carbon capture technology that will hopefully save the planet.
Most naturally-formed diamonds are from the Earth's mantle, generally understood to be formed as carbon is exposed to extreme temperature and pressure. A new study looks at the effects of a new parameter - electric fields - in the formation of these precious minerals.
A team of New York-based physicists has achieved one of modern science's most sought after phenomena - a material that conducts electricity with virtually perfect efficiency in what is known as superconductivity - with new material, and at higher temperatures.
Scientists are creating the world's most extensive collection of moss of the genus Sphagnum central in response to the dwindling number of moss in peatlands that absorbs 30% of the Earth's carbon.
The trees are the Earth's biggest allies in countering the carbon emissions that humans pump unto the Earth's atmosphere as the burning of fossil fuels continues. It could cause a big problem if forests, such as the Siberian forest, would absorb lesser carbon as it means climate will continue to worsen.
Scientists explain how the Perseverance rover will be searching for signs of life on Mars, starting with the Jezero Crater. They hope to find traces of Martian microbes in what used to be a lake.
