Astronomers find first habitable Earth-like planet
Astronomers have discovered the most Earth-like planet outside our Solar System to date, an exoplanet with a radius only 50% larger than the Earth and capable of having liquid water. view more (2007-04-25)
Fattysaurus or thinnysaurus? How dinosaurs measure up with laser imaging
Karl Bates and his colleagues in the palaeontology and biomechanics research group have reconstructed the bodies of five dinosaurs, two T. rex (Stan at the Manchester Museum and the Museum of the Rockies cast MOR555), an Acrocanthosaurus atokensis, a Strutiomimum sedens and an Edmontosaurus annectens. view more (2009-02-23)
Ibuprofen or acetaminophen in long-term resistance training increases muscle mass/strength
Taking daily recommended dosages of ibuprofen and acetaminophen caused a substantially greater increase over placebo in the amount of quadriceps muscle mass and muscle strength gained during three months of regular weight lifting, in a study by physiologists at the Human Performance Laboratory, Ball State University. view more (2008-04-07)
A combined tooth-venom arsenal revealed as key to Komodo dragon's hunting strategy
A combined tooth-venom arsenal revealed as key to Komodo Dragon's hunting strategy. view more (2009-05-19)
UCI scientists discover minimum mass for galaxies
By analyzing light from small, faint galaxies that orbit the Milky Way, UC Irvine scientists believe they have discovered the minimum mass for galaxies in the universe - 10 million times the mass of the sun. view more (2008-08-28)
Forsyth scientists find linkages between serotonin reuptake inhibitors and bone mass
Scientists at The Forsyth Institute have found that fluoxetine (Prozac), a drug used in the treatment of depression and obsessive-compulsive disorders, increases bone mass. view more (2006-10-13)
Planet or failed star? One of smallest stellar companions seen by Hubble
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have photographed one of the smallest objects ever seen around a normal star beyond our Sun. Weighing in at 12 times the mass of Jupiter, the object is small enough to be a planet. view more (2006-09-11)
What Shall We Do With Nuclear Waste?
There are two ways of dealing with the problem of nuclear waste. The first one is the easiest but not the most sensible: you can simply bury nuclear waste products and try to forget about them. However, this way does not seem to be the most rational. It seems much more attractive to try to derive some benefit from the situation. In this case it is... view more... (2002-03-12)
Chronic Alcohol Exposure Can Affect Brain Protein Expression
Researchers at the University at Buffalo studying the effects of alcohol on the brain, using zebrafish as a model, have identified several novel central nervous system proteins that are affected by chronic alcohol exposure. view more (2006-08-30)
Wobbly planets could reveal Earth-like moons
Moons outside our Solar System with the potential to support life have just become much easier to detect, thanks to research by an astronomer at University College London (UCL). view more (2008-12-12)
New theory for mass extinctions
A new theory on just what causes Earth's worst mass extinctions may help settle the endless scientific dust-up on the matter. view more (2006-10-25)
NRL Instrument on NASA Satellite Sees Solar Hurricane Detach Comet Tail
Scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory report they have captured the first images of a collision between a comet and a solar hurricane. view more (2007-10-03)
Extinction by asteroid a rarity
In geology as in cancer research, the silver bullet theory always gets the headlines and nearly always turns out to be wrong. view more (2008-10-07)
Enzyme inhibitors block replication Of SARS virus
Researchers have known since 2003 that a site on the virus is responsible for mediating proteases that allow the virus to replicate. Since then researchers have been testing protease inhibitors to lock up this site, known as SARS 3CLpro, and effectively stop the virus from infecting additional cells in the body. view more (2006-03-28)
Scientists Model a Cornucopia of Earth-sized Planets
In the Star Wars movies fictional planets are covered with forests, oceans, deserts, and volcanoes. But new models from a team of MIT, NASA, and Carnegie scientists begin to describe an even wider range of Earth-size planets that astronomers might actually be able to find in the near future. view more (2007-09-25)
GAMMA RAYS AND DARK MATTER
For a long time it has been known that the Milky Way is surrounded by a (nearly spherical) halo of invisible matter, which contributes at least 90% of the whole galactic mass. Yet, almost nothing is known about the nature of such a dark halo. view more (1999-02-26)
Researchers find mutiple proteins that stick to medical devices
Biomedical engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have found a new role for the blood protein serum amyloid P in the body's response to medical materials, which may help to explain a variety of problems associated with heart-lung bypass, hemodialysis and the use of artificial vascular grafts. view more (2005-10-06)
Coral bleaching increases chances of coral disease
Mass coral bleaching has devastated coral colonies around the world for almost three decades. Now scientists have found that bleaching can make corals more susceptible to disease and, in turn, coral disease can exacerbate the negative effects of bleaching. view more (2009-10-02)
Measurements link magma melting rate to tectonic plate subduction rate
Determining the origin and rate of magma production in subduction zone volcanoes is essential to understanding the formation of continental crust and the recycling of subducted materials back into Earth's mantle. view more (2007-11-09)
The dark matter of the universe has a long lifetime
New research from the Niels Bohr Institute presents new information that adds another piece of knowledge to the jigsaw puzzle of the dark mystery of the universe - dark matter. The research has just been published in the scientific journal Physical Review Letters. view more (2007-10-02)
