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)
Looking for life on Jupiter's icy moon Europa
While NASA and the European Space Agency focus on Mars rovers and future missions to search for life on the Red Planet, a determined core of scientists is lobbying for equal attention to a place they feel is just as likely to harbor life-Jupiter's icy moon Europa. view more (2007-02-26)
Scientists find a solar-powered asteroid
An international research team led by Academy Research Fellow Mikko Kaasalainen has found an asteroid whose rotation receives an extra kick from solar radiation. view more (2007-03-08)
Discovery of a new planet in the outer solar system
A team of researchers from the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, CA, Yale University in New Haven, CT, and Gemini Observatory in Hilo, HI, report the discovery of a new planet in the outer solar system. view more (2005-08-02)
Quantum computer solves problem, without running
By combining quantum computation and quantum interrogation, scientists at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have found an exotic way of determining an answer to an algorithm - without ever running the algorithm. view more (2006-02-23)

A CAR THAT RUNS ON FRESH AIR - ALMOST!
Karl's car finished 38th in a field of 109 entrants - an impressive feat by any standards. 'I built the car over a year as an A level technology project,' says Karl. 'The project was sponsored by Marine Projects at Lee Mill in Plymouth and the team consisted of myself and a friend, Sam Starmore, who drove the car for me.' view more (1999-02-01)
Where are the supermassive black holes hiding?
European and American scientists, on a quest to find super-massive black holes hiding in nearby galaxies, have found surprisingly few. Either the black holes are better hidden than scientists realised or they are lurking only in the more distant universe. view more (2006-07-27)
Search for cancer genes unlikely to succeed, say experts
The hunt to find common genes that are associated with cancer is unlikely to be successful, say experts in this week's BMJ. view more (2006-05-12)
Fighting sound with sound, new modeling technique could quiet aircraft

Warmer seas linked to strengthening hurricanes: FSU study fuels global warming debate
The theory that global warming may be contributing to stronger hurricanes in the Atlantic over the past 30 years is bolstered by a new study led by a Florida State University researcher. The study will be published in the Sept. 4 edition of the journal Nature. view more (2008-09-04)
ESA and ANU make space propulsion breakthrough
The European Space Agency and the Australian National University have successfully tested a new design of spacecraft ion engine that dramatically improves performance over present thrusters and marks a major step forward in space propulsion capability. view more (2006-01-12)
Major grant drives forward cost efficient solar power
Whether the search for alternative energy sources is driven by our concern about global fossil fuel supplies or over the atmospheric effects of burning of fossil fuels, the government has laid out its aim to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 60% of 1990 levels by 2050, and aims to over- achieve its goal of sourcing 10% of energy from renewables by... view more...

Scientists at the University of York have made a huge leap forward in the search for 'smarter' antibiotics. view more (2006-08-23)
Researchers find better prostate cancer indicators
Researchers at Mayo Clinic have narrowed the search for effective prostate cancer biomarkers (genetic variations that point to a specific disease or condition), identifying changes in the expression of genes of the whole genome closely correlated to prostate cancer development and progression. view more (2006-03-28)
Small, unmanned aircraft search for survivors
Providing the benefits of speed, portability and access, a pair of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) surveyed storm-damaged communities in Miss. as part of the search for trapped survivors of Hurricane Katrina. view more (2005-09-15)
