Webb Has Arrived Successfully at L2
Universe Today - Report by Nancy Atkinson It’s really happening. The James Webb Space Telescope has successfully reached its orbital destination in space, 1.5 million km (1 million miles) from Earth. A final 5-minute thruster firing on January 24, 2022 put JWST in its...
Microbially produced fibers: stronger than steel, tougher than Kevlar
Spider silk is said to be one of the strongest, toughest materials on the Earth. Now engineers at Washington University in St. Louis have designed amyloid silk hybrid proteins and produced them in engineered bacteria. The resulting fibers are stronger and tougher than...
Nanobubbles a pathway to better medical devices
Sydney Nano scientists witness spontaneous nanobubble formation Tiny gas bubbles could help reduce drag in small medical devices, university scientists have found. Drag can lead to clogging and damage biological samples, so this discovery could pave the way to more...
The Secret Language of Cells
Dr Jon Lieff, MD, is a neuropsychiatrist with a BA in Mathematics from Yale University and an MD from Harvard Medical School. He pioneered the creation of integrated treatment units that focus on complex patients with combined medical, psychiatric, and neurological...
How robots learn to hike
ETH Zurich researchers led by Marco Hutter have developed a new control approach that enables a legged robot, called ANYmal, to move quickly and robustly over difficult terrain. Thanks to machine learning, the robot can combine its visual perception of the environment...

Swarm of autonomous tiny drones can localize gas leaks
When there is a gas leak in a large building or at an industrial site, human firefighters currently need to go in with gas sensing instruments. Finding the gas leak may take considerable time, while they are risking their lives. Researchers from TU Delft (the...
Move over CRISPR, the retrons are coming
New gene editing technique enables millions of genetic experiments to be performed simultaneously By Lindsay Brownell (BOSTON) — While the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system has become the poster child for innovation in synthetic biology, it has some major limitations....
