Cellulose nanofibers, a jewel: in Japan they think of wooden cars
Cellulose nanofibers are light, resistant, printable and recyclable: what are we waiting for to make wooden cars? In Japan they are thinking about it.
Here's the proof: a cosmic network connects all the galaxies
A galaxy cluster in the C-EAGLE simulation shows a portion of the image with filaments similar to those detected in reality. The colored map simulates the newly discovered structure: a cluster of galaxies is formed at the crossroads of this cosmic network. In the cold wild space, seemingly distant galaxies hold together, resisting the call of black holes. In the darkness of great distances it is a "mesh", a network, a gas road that keeps them united and connected to each other. This gaseous network… Read more
SABER, the hypersonic plane will go from London to New York in an hour
Thanks to its technology, SABER can take the aircraft to Mach 5.4 (6.300 km per hour) for commercial flights. That's five times the speed of sound.
Venus was habitable until a catastrophe happened millions of years ago
A team of scientists speculate that Venus was habitable and housed life until a mysterious planetary catastrophe 700 million years ago.
'Solar petrol' stores energy from the sun for 18 years
One of the most important alternative sources of energy is photovoltaic. Solar energy, growing everywhere (especially in China), is available in abundance and 100% renewable. The problem that has always plagued solar energy researchers is not its availability and renewability, but the possibility of storing it for a long time in a battery. This has until now prevented it from being used for long-term solutions. A research team from Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden… Read more
Bill Gates finances the startup that wants to vaporize waste
Vaporizing waste does not create methane as in landfills, but reusable carbon monoxide and hydrogen. And unlike an incinerator, it has no emissions.

Moon? Mars? 4 reasons to focus on asteroids
The world awaits new landings on the moon and then on Mars, but I say: remember the asteroids, here are at least 4 good reasons to do it.
Superwood is born: it is as strong as steel and reflects the sun's rays
The new wood is very dense and has a strength of around 404 megapascals, which makes it almost 9 times stronger than natural wood.
10 reasons why graphene will revolutionize the planet
Here are 10 applications with which graphene will change the world.
Delay for nuclear fusion
Five years of delay in completing the Iter experimental reactor were today announced. It is a huge machine designed to demonstrate the feasibility of nuclear fusion. But it cannot be completed before the end of 2025 and with an extra 4 billion euros in funding from member countries. The project aims to reproduce on Earth the thermonuclear reactions that take place in the core of stars. It officially started in 2005, but soon the… Read more
Unexplained area discovered on the surface of Mars
Stars and planets are fascinating universes, which every day reveal dark and difficult to explain areas. It happened recently with the discoveries involving the planet Pluto, where a mountain chain was discovered that overturns every scientific thought carried out so far and it also happens today with Mars, a planet that seemed to have been studied in every single portion of it. The Curiosity probe has in fact detected the presence of a very special area in the crater area... Read more
The smoking cabin of the Hindenburg airship
You read that right: There was indeed a smoking cabin on the Hindenburg, the largest flying object ever built and filled with 6 million cubic meters of highly flammable hydrogen. And in fact it caught fire in an accident on May 6, 1937 which destroyed it in just 30 seconds causing the death of 35 passengers. It was a highly pressurized room (to avoid hydrogen infiltration) and separated from the other rooms thanks to a double door. She was constantly monitored by a member of staff and were highly… Read more
