A team of U.S. physicists has created a new isotope of fluorine, fluorine-13 (13F), via a charge-exchange reaction between a beam of oxygen-13 (13O) and...
A team of scientists at the Ohio State University has found that steady electrical stimulation generates increased permeability across blood vessels, an...
Martian atmospheric oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and argon ions have been escaping Mars for billions of years and could be preserved inside the uppermost hundreds...
In a study published this month in the journal Icarus, planetary researchers from the United States and Germany modeled chemical processes in the subsurface...
The active Martian water cycle, i.e., the presence of shallow water and soluble perchlorate salts in the Martian soil, enables the production of hydrogen...
In a study published in the journal Scientific Reports, researchers have demonstrated that consumption of cocoa flavanols can improve efficiency in blood...
An international team of researchers from the United Kingdom and China has created droplet-based algal micro-reactors capable of aerobic or hypoxic photosynthesis...
Hyperbaric oxygen treatments may induce significant senolytic effects in healthy aging adults, according to new research from Tel Aviv University and the...
A team of researchers in Europe has identified a new high-pressure mineral in a lunar meteorite called Oued Awlitis 001.
Fragments of Oued Awlitis 001....
Astronomers using ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) have captured a beautiful image of a planetary nebula called the Skull Nebula.
This image, taken by...
A ferric mineral called hematite (Fe2O3) is present at high latitudes on the Moon, mostly associated with east- and equator-facing sides of topographic...
Using data from the NOMAD (Nadir and Occultation for Mars Discovery) ultraviolet and visible spectrometer instrument on board ESA’s ExoMars Trace Gas...
Using data from the Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument on NASA’s rover Curiosity, researchers have found that certain minerals in rocks at Gale...
