It seems impossible to wrap our heads around the fact that there were living creatures walking on this planet hundreds of millions of years ago. It’s so hard to imagine how life was back then when there were thousands of unseen...

The environmental impact of mismanaged trash and landfill sites has proved to have devastating consequences. The development of a landfill site typically means the loss of approximately 30 to 300 species per hectare - but in the case of one Costa...

The 10th of April, 2019, will go down in history as the day when the first ever picture of the black hole was released. It measures 40 billion km across - three million times the size of the Earth - and...

We all know that space travel is not only expensive, but also dangerous. If humans are to send people to Mars, scientists must know and understand the effects that living in space poses to human body. It is known that the...

Futurists have long predicted exciting technological changes that would revolutionize society; from flying cars, robot assistants and all-in-one food pills. But while technology has indeed changed our lives beyond our wildest dreams, it seems mainly to have been concentrated in areas...

NASA has captured and shared cutting-edge images of supersonic aircraft shockwaves that reveal how these waves move and interact. The experiment was done in an effort to further the development of a jet that would fly faster than the speed of...

Even though everyone had to learn the periodic table at school, there are probably only a few of us that can still remember more than a few elements, their order, what they actually do and where are they used. So, it’s...

Unfortunately, all good things eventually come to an end, as Nelly Furtado famously declared. Today we say goodbye to one of the biggest leaps in human history. We bid a farewell to NASA's Opportunity rover, abandoned and alone around 140 million...
