The Moon's surface witnessed a spectacular sunset, all thanks to a spacecraft that bid its farewell. The Blue Ghost lander, a creation of Firefly Aerospace, captured this moment before the lunar night took over. The footage, released by the Texas-based company, shows the Sun's light gradually disapp
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex disease that affects people in many different ways. In Canada, the population living with MS is quite diverse. A recent study took a close look at the available information about this diversity. The goal was to figure out what we know and what we don't know ab
Dysprosium, a rare earth element, has a special talent for magnetism. To make the most of this talent, scientists are looking at how different structures can boost its magnetic powers. One key factor is the crystal field around the dysprosium ion. A strong field along the axis can boost magnetic str
The Himalayas are more than just the world's highest mountains. They are also a natural particle factory. This was discovered in December 2014. At the base of Mount Everest, in Nepal, scientists noticed something unusual. New particles were forming in the air. These particles were purely natural, co

A startup is gearing up for some serious space missions. The company has secured early-stage funding to push forward with its unique satellite technology. The company is keeping the exact amount of money raised under wraps. But it is clear that this funding will help the company reach some major
In the world of combustion research, scientists are always looking for better ways to measure what's happening. They want to know more than just the temperature. They want to see a full picture. This is where computed tomography (CT) comes in. It's like a medical CT scan, but for fires. It helps res
The goal of dry powder inhalers is to deliver medicine directly to the lungs. This is tough because the particles need to be tiny. When particles are tiny, they stick together and to other surfaces. This makes it hard for them to float in the air, which is crucial for inhalers to work. So, scientist
