Free smoke alarms to poor local authority households are a waste of time and money
Local authority schemes aimed at reducing fire-related injuries and deaths in poor urban households by providing and installing free smoke alarms could be a waste of time and money, according to a study carried out by researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. The study, the findings of which are published in today's... view more... (2002-10-31)
MIT demonstrates wireless power transfer
Imagine a future in which wireless power transfer is feasible: cell phones, household robots, mp3 players, laptop computers and other portable electronics capable of charging themselves without ever being plugged in, freeing us from that final, ubiquitous power wire. Some of these devices might not even need their bulky batteries to operate. view more (2007-06-08)

Carnegie scientists fine-tuning methods for Stardust analysis
On Sunday, January 15, NASA's Stardust mission landed safely with the first solid comet fragments ever brought back to Earth. Members of the mission's Preliminary Examination Team, including several from the Carnegie Institution's Geophysical Laboratory and Department of Terrestrial Magnetism, are among the first to analyze these precious samples. view more (2006-03-23)
UCLA's Christopher Russell leads NASA's Dawn Mission, set for July 7 launch
Christopher T. Russell, UCLA professor of geophysics and space physics, has spent 15 years working on NASA's Dawn mission to the doughnut-shaped asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. As the scheduled July 7 launch from Cape Canaveral nears, Russell is ready, and so is Dawn. view more (2007-06-28)
Cave's climate clues show ancient empires declined during dry spell
The decline of the Roman and Byzantine Empires in the Eastern Mediterranean more than 1,400 years ago may have been driven by unfavorable climate changes. view more (2008-12-08)
Generating electricity from air flow
A group of researchers at the City College of New York is developing a new way to generate power for planes and automobiles based on materials known as piezoelectrics, which convert the kinetic energy of motion into electricity. view more (2009-11-23)
Racing Ahead at the Speed of Light
Imagine trying to catch up to something moving close to the speed of light - the fastest anything can move - and sending ahead information in time to make mid-path flight corrections. Impossible? Not quite. view more (2008-02-07)

Experiments help explain mysterious 'floppy' space molecule
A laboratory method developed for making and analyzing cold, concentrated samples of a mysterious "floppy" molecule thought to be abundant only in outer space has revealed new data that help explain the molecule's properties. view more (2006-01-06)
Alzheimer's research yields potential drug target
Scientists at UC Santa Barbara and several other institutions have found laboratory evidence that a cluster of peptides may be the toxic agent in Alzheimer's disease. Scientists say the discovery may lead to new drugs for the disease. view more (2009-07-02)
Channels of cellular communication
A potential new channel of communication between different cellular compartments has been discovered by researchers at the University of Leeds. Dr Jim Deuchars` group show how the protein P2X7, which forms a channel known to mediate ion movements between cells and their external environment, may also work internally, facilitating communication... view more...
