NASA is often synonymous with space missions but the agency works just as hard at improving aeronautics, making planes faster, cleaner and more secure.
Google Glass perhaps didn’t receive the earth-shattering response the company – and world – had expected. However, a proposal that Samsung appears to have in the works could be the augmented reality wearable tech everybody is holding out for.
America is facing a national crisis. It is the only developed country in the world that doesn’t offer paid time off to new parents — and moms and dads are struggling.
The third largest retailer in the world has taken a revolutionary step towards ending hunger in Europe.
Chesapeake Bay Foundation's Brock Environmental Centeer, which operates on net zero energy and net zero water, is about to receive the world most prestigious accolade in sustainable building: a Living Building certification.
Scientists in Denmark have developed a process of "reverse photosynthesis" to use sunlight to breakdown biomass for use as fuel, a faster and cleaner process than existing methods.
Clean Energy Technologies announced today an innovative waste-to-energy system set for completion in Tennessee later this year that will provide renewable electricity to a municipal waste water treatment plant.
Just one year after scientists in China made history by modifying the DNA of human embryos, a second team of Chinese researchers has done it again. Using CRISPR/Cas9, the researchers introduced HIV-resistance into the embryos, showcasing the tremendous potential for gene-editing.
Something strange is happening to our planet. Around the year 2000, the North rotational pole started migrating eastward at a vigorous clip. Now, scientists at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory have figured out what's going on, and you'll be shocked to learn that humans are behind it.
It's an exciting time to be alive if you're keen to watch humans get off this planet. A private space race is taking off, opening new pathways to orbit while sparking a burst of technological innovation. Even better, thanks to the magic of internet live streaming, we're watching history unfold in real time.
SpaceX Falcon 9 successfully landed on an ocean barge!
Crisp, clear images of a "hot Jupiter" system captured by a physicist were vital in determining that a newly found planet inhabits a three-star system, a phenomenon documented only a few times before.
Engineers have shown a new approach for making transistors and other electrical devices: sequentially depositing their components in the form of liquid nanocrystal 'inks'.
Breakthrough chip for nano-manipulation of light paves way for next generation optical technologies and enables deeper understanding of black holes
The next generation of cutting-edge accelerator magnets is no longer just an idea. Recent tests revealed that the United States and CERN have successfully co-created a prototype superconducting accelerator magnet that is much more powerful than those currently inside the Large Hadron Collider.
