UT Dallas nanotechnologists demonstrate artificial muscles powered by highly energetic fuels
University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) nanotechnologists have made alcohol- and hydrogen-powered artificial muscles that are 100 times stronger than natural muscles, able to do 100 times greater work per cycle and produce, at reduced strengths, larger contractions than natural muscles. view more (2006-03-17)
MIT powers up new battery for hybrid cars
Researchers at MIT have developed a new type of lithium battery that could become a cheaper alternative to the batteries that now power hybrid electric cars. view more (2006-02-17)
New material brings hydrogen fuel, cheaper petrochemicals closer to reality
A rubbery material that can purify hydrogen efficiently in its most usable form for fuel cells and oil refining has been developed by a chemical engineering group at The University of Texas at Austin. view more (2006-02-03)
Scientists make first step towards 'holy grail' of crystallography
Scientists from Imperial College London and the University of Surrey have developed a new technique for crystallising proteins, a discovery which could help speed up the development of new medicines and treatments. view more (2006-01-09)
Eggs from embryonic stem cells could benefit sterile women
Monash researchers have developed a process that causes embryonic stem (ES) cells to develop into ovarian structures containing eggs. view more (2005-06-20)
A star's death comes to light
Using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, scientists have created a stunning new image of one of the youngest supernova remnants in the galaxy. This new view of the debris of an exploded star helps astronomers solve a long-standing mystery, with implications for understanding how a star's life can end catastrophically and for gauging the expansion... view more...

‘Perfume’ lures flies into trap
As part of a project funded by the NWO’s Technology Foundation (STW), a Groningen research team has investigated how flies react to the odours of such things as old pork, bread and chicken manure. The findings will be used to develop more effective flytraps, for example for use in stables. Flies are attracted to decaying and fermenting... view more... (2001-05-30)
Comet from coldest spot in solar system has material from hottest places
Scientists analyzing recent samples of comet dust have discovered minerals that formed near the sun or other stars. That means materials from the innermost part of the solar system could have traveled to the outer reaches, where comets formed. view more (2006-03-14)
The colourful demise of a Sun-like star
A brand new image taken with Hubble's Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 shows the planetary nebula NGC 2440 - the chaotic structure of the demise of a star. view more (2007-02-15)
Robotic assembly of fuel cells could hasten hydrogen economy
"The U.S. Department of Energy has suggested that the cost of manufacturing fuel cells is the single biggest obstacle on the road to the hydrogen economy," says Raymond Puffer, co-director of the FMC. view more (2005-11-09)
The inside dope
Often, things can be improved by a little 'contamination.' Steel, for example is iron with a bit of carbon mixed in. To produce materials for modern electronics, small amounts of impurities are introduced into silicon - a process called doping. view more (2007-07-27)
Titania nanotubes create potentially efficient solar cells
A solar cell, made of titania nanotubes and natural dye, may be the answer to making solar electricity production cost-effective, according to a Penn State researcher. view more (2006-02-08)

UK joins world treaty to share vital plant resources
Vital food crops will be protected worldwide under a new international agreement which comes into force today. The UK is one of more than 50 countries committed to the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, which aims to improve food security and promote sustainable farming. The treaty aims to ensure that plant... view more... (2004-06-29)
Scientists find the reason behind black holes' light shows
A team of astronomers led by the University of Michigan may know how black holes are lighting up the Universe. view more (2006-06-22)
ASU researchers 'wire' DNA to identify mutations
A team of ASU researchers led by Nongjian Tao and Peiming Zhang has developed a new, breakthrough technique for the detection of DNA mutations. view more (2005-12-09)
MIT researchers build tiny batteries with viruses
MIT scientists have harnessed the construction talents of tiny viruses to build ultra-small "nanowire" structures for use in very thin lithium-ion batteries. view more (2006-04-07)
Electrical stimulation boosts stroke recovery
Sending tiny electric pulses to a part of the brain controlling motor function helps ischemic stroke survivors regain partial use of a weakened hand, new Oregon Health & Science University research shows. view more (2006-03-23)
Pulsating gels could power tiny robots
As a kid, did you ever put those little capsules into warm water and watch them grow into dinosaurs? When certain gels are put into a solution, they will not only expand, but also contract again, repeatedly, as if the little dinosaur grew and shrank over and over. view more (2006-11-03)
Saturn's rings show evidence of a modern-day collision
Scientists on NASA's Cassini mission have spied a new, continuously changing feature that provides circumstantial evidence that a comet or asteroid recently collided with Saturn's innermost ring, the faint D ring. view more (2006-10-12)
