An "artificial leaf" made by Daniel Nocera and his team, using a silicon solar cell with novel catalyst materials bonded to its two sides, is shown in a container of water with light (simulating sunlight) shining on it. The light generates a flow of electricity that causes the water molecules, with the help of the catalysts, to split into oxygen and hydrogen, which bubble up from the two surfaces.
Ali Aliev, the researcher have created a working invisibility cloak using one of nature's common yet bizarre phenomena -- the "mirage effect."In a video posted to YouTube, the strands are seen appearing and disappearing during a demonstration in Mr Aliev's lab.
UCF researchers have discovered a way to infuse the world's lightest carbon material with nanotubes. The results may lead to advances in robotic surgery, the detection of pollutants and even increase battery capacity!
NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has detected beams of antimatter launched by thunderstorms. Acting like enormous particle accelerators, the storms can emit gamma-ray flashes, called TGFs, and high-energy electrons and positrons. Scientists now think that most TGFs produce particle beams and antimatter.
Tel-Aviv University demos quantum superconductors locked in a magnetic field. For an explanation of the physics behind this demonstration, visit http://quantumlevitation.com/the-physics/.
On June 18, a Honeywell-operated Gulfstream G450 successfully completed the first transatlantic biofuel flight. The twinjet's right Rolls-Royce Tay 611-8C engine was run on a 50-50 blend of Honeywell UOP's Green Jet Fuel and petroleum-based jet fuel.
In Thailand, ADB is lending up to $70 million to support the development of the world's largest solar photovoltaic energy plants in Asia. Once operational, it will generate enough electricity for 50,000 households.
http://www.solarenergyprosandconsinfo.com/ This will provide enough enrergy for 200,000 homes, in 1 hour the Sun can provide all of the planets electricity needs for a whole year. Solar energy is the future. Sometimes I see something that inspires me, and this solar energy tower does just that.
Hong Kong is producing energy a little greener today. The largest solar energy plant was recently opened on the island, as part of an effort to cut pollution.
Astronomers using ESO's leading exoplanet hunter HARPS have today announced more than fifty newly discovered planets around other stars. Among these are many rocky planets not much heavier than the Earth. One of them in particular seems to orbit in the habitable zone around its star. In this video news release we look at how astronomers discover these distant worlds and what the future may hold for finding rocky worlds like the Earth that may support life.
A quick look set to music of current and future NASA human space flight activities.
Astronauts bravely say they are ready to go on another spaceship as their 520-day simulated mission to Mars ends. .

Titan Saturn System Mission (TSSM) is a joint NASA/ESA proposal for an exploration of Saturn and its moons Titan and Enceladus, where many complex phenomena have been revealed by the recent Cassini Huygens mission.
