The Argonne National Laboratory Is Using Gaming Technology To Train A Nuclear Workforce

While one would expect some nuclear testing to take place at America’s notable liquid metal testing facility, we don’t expect them to dive into the gaming world. To be fair though, the nuclear workforce here wasn’t so much playing video games as they were conducting experiments using gaming tech. It is claimed that engineers at […]

Saturn Showing Abnormal Ultraviolet Glow And Now Astronomers Think They Know Why

Recently, researchers found an excess of ultraviolent emission coming from Saturn’s northern hemisphere. After doing further research, they now feel they know why this is happening. Those ultraviolet wavelengths might very well be due to Saturn’s beautiful rings. We all tend to assume that since Saturn is farther from its Sun, it’s probably pretty cold […]

Photosynthesis Might Not Work The Way We Think, Researchers Find

By Joe Burgett | 2 months ago

For years now, we knew that photosynthesis was the process by which green plants and other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Essentially, this oxidation process is taking electrons from water and can reduce or even give electrons to carbon dioxide molecules. Of course, all of this requires the use […]

Planets Without Stars Might Actually Have Moons That Can Sustain Human Life

By Joe Burgett | 2 months ago

Jeff Goldblum said it best in Jurassic Park many years ago: “life, uh, finds a way.” His words echo in the universe today, as we have seen how possible life can exist in some of the most amazing places. For years, we knew that there are moons that can sustain human life. However, most of […]

Scientists Find Several Tatooine-Like Planets Around Binary Stars That Might Be Habitable

By Joe Burgett | 2 months ago

For years we thought George Lucas was pretty crazy to have a planet in a binary star system. Mostly because we know today that two suns would normally make life nearly impossible, especially for humans. Yet scientists have recently found several Tatooine-like planets that might be just right for life to actually exist. Most of […]

The Milky Way Might Be Spawning More Stars Than Scientists Originally Assumed

By Joe Burgett | 3 months ago

Our Milky Way Galaxy has been making stars for billions of years. Many of those stars were then accompanied by planets and the rest is history. While we all knew the galaxy was making stars quite often, it was initially assumed to be on a moderate pace. Now, this could be far different than we […]

A New Biomaterial Could Be Capable Of Healing Humans From Heart Attack Damage

By Joe Burgett | 3 months ago

Heart attacks will often differ in severity, but the more you have…the greater chance of death. However, what if you could heal from the damage one causes? This might be possible in the near future, as a new biomaterial has proven to be quite successful in recent studies. For those unaware, heart attacks kill cardiac […]

James Webb Telescope Finds The Oldest Known "Quenched" Galaxy

By Joe Burgett | 3 months ago

Before we go in deep on this discovery, many might be wondering what a “quenched” galaxy is. This is a galaxy that no longer produces new stars and therefore will die out as a galaxy completely once its last star fades to black. This happens when a galaxy loses cold gas, which strongly suppresses star […]
