Scientists have been trying to find the best way to make ZIF-8 membranes strong enough for industrial use. These membranes are really good at separating two important gases, C3H6 and C3H8. A recent study found that using supercritical ethane, scC2H6, to make these membranes might be the answer. Supe
Did you know that many eye diseases show signs in the retina before symptoms appear? That's why scientists are working on ways to detect these diseases early. One new method is called Pan-Ret. It's a special system that can spot abnormalities in retinal images without needing lots of labeled data. H
The FBI's independence is a hot topic. Some people think it should be totally free from politics, but that wasn't always the plan. The FBI director's 10-year term was set to stop another long-term leader like J. Edgar Hoover, who stayed in charge for nearly four decades. His independence turned into
Scientists have discovered that stars similar to our Sun experience massive explosions called superflares about once every century. By studying 56, 000 Sun-like stars, researchers found that nearly 3, 000 of them had experienced these powerful outbursts. Although the Sun hasn’t had a recorded superf
A political group called Save Western Culture spent a whopping $1. 4 million on ads and calls to help Democrats win key races. The money came from a nonprofit called Stop China Now, which was formed just before the election. This sudden donation raised questions because it happened after the deadlin
The NFL isn't backing away from its partnership with rapper Jay-Z, despite recent rape allegations. Commissioner Roger Goodell confirmed this at the league's winter meetings, saying, "We're aware of the civil allegations and Jay-Z's response. The litigation is ongoing, but our relationship remains t
Recently, NFL enthusiasts have taken to social media to express their discontent. They're urging the league to reconsider its partnership with Jay-Z following a disturbing allegation. A woman claims Jay-Z assaulted her at an MTV VMAs afterparty in 2000 when she was only 13. She added this to an exis
Scientists are exploring the use of neodymium gallium oxides in supercapacitors. These materials, known as Nd3Ga5O12 and Nd3GaO6, are created through a simple and eco-friendly method called the citrate-gel-matrix approach. What makes these materials special is their high specific capacitance and str
In Denton, Texas, a city once promise by crypto mining, the future is now in AI. Core Scientific, once a major crypto miner, is rebranding as an AI supercomputer hub. With a boost in power, they aim to create jobs and revenue. But the switch from volatile crypto to AI isn't simple, and not everyone'
Let's dive into the world of particle physics with TESLA, a powerful electron-positron linear collider. This advanced machine is designed to operate at energies ranging from 500 to 800 GeV. But what does this mean for physics? Well, these energy levels allow scientists to probe deeper into the build
