Science fiction literature is full of stories in which tunnels in space-time known as wormholes are used for time travel. How much fact lies within the fiction? The answer is, more than you might think.
Scientist Eric Ladizinsky compares advent of new technology to discovery of fire
Quantum physics theory has an odd but fundamental quirk: atoms in a quantum state aren't supposed to move as long as you're measuring them. It sounds preposterous, but Cornell University researchers have just demonstrated that it's real.
Researchers have announced breakthroughs in the development of tunneling field effect transistors, a semiconductor technology that takes advantage of the quirky behavior of electrons at the quantum level.
