What shape is an asteroid? For (44) Nysa, the honest answer until now has been that nobody knew. It is one of the brightest and largest E-type asteroids in the main belt, a class with a surface rich in enstatite, and its oddness has made it a favourite target for well over a hundred years. […]The post The Asteroid That May Be Three Worlds appeared first on Knowridge Science Report.
A team of researchers has developed a new battery material that could help electric vehicles travel farther on a single charge while also extending battery life. The new technology could be especially attractive to manufacturers because it works with today’s battery production methods, meaning factories may not need expensive new equipment to use it. The […]The post New Hybrid Battery Binder Could Help Electric Cars Go Farther and Last Longer appeared first on Knowridge Science Repor
A professor at Northeastern University has developed a unique firefighting robot that uses liquid nitrogen instead of chemical fire retardants to extinguish flames. The technology could one day help firefighters tackle dangerous wildfires more safely while reducing harm to the environment. The idea began almost by accident nearly 20 years ago. In 2008, Professor Yiannis […]The post New Robot Uses Liquid Nitrogen to Extinguish Wildfires Without Harmful Chemicals appeared first on Knowridge
Air filters play a vital role in keeping the air we breathe clean. They are used in homes, offices, hospitals, factories, cars and many other places to remove dust, pollen, smoke and other harmful particles from the air. However, even the best filters have a weakness. While they can capture tiny particles, some of those […]The post New Spray-On Coating Helps Air Filters Capture More Pollution and Last Nearly Twice as Long appeared first on Knowridge Science Report.
A graduate student at the University of Maine has developed a new type of wood-based foam that could one day replace the plastic insulation used in many drink coolers. The new material is made mostly from wood products and offers a more environmentally friendly alternative to the petroleum-based foam commonly found inside ice chests. Most […]The post New Wood-Based Foam Could Replace Plastic Insulation In Coolers appeared first on Knowridge Science Report.

As new observations reveal the outer edges of IC 1101 for the first time, scientists have confirmed it is the largest known galaxy. The galaxy’s statistics are staggering, containing an estimated 3.4 trillion solar masses of stars and spanning roughly 1.7 million light-years, eclipsing every other known galaxy.IC 1101 belongs to a class known as brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs), which form as massive galaxies spend billions of years absorbing smaller neighboring galaxies.The new images ar
Born Aug. 1, 1818, Maria Mitchell was raised in the Quaker tradition, which allowed equal education for boys and girls. This, plus lessons from her father, afforded her the opportunity to become skilled in astronomy, mathematics, and navigation. After a brief stint as a teacher, she became the first librarian of the Nantucket Antheneum. SheContinue reading "Aug 1, 1818: The birth of Maria Mitchell"The post Aug 1, 1818: The birth of Maria Mitchell appeared first on Astronomy Magazine.
Since iOS 5 in 2011, the iPhone and iPad have included Notification Center, a central place to find alerts from various apps in chronological order.Starting with iOS 27, Apple is making a major change to how users open Notification Center on iPhone and iPad.iOS 27 is currently in beta, and the behavior has changed slightly between the first two releases. However, the four developer beta and second public beta show this change will ship this fall.
Après OpenAI, c’est au tour d’Anthropic de reconnaître que son modèle d’IA a réussi à s’échapper d’un environnement pourtant conçu pour le contenir. Plusieurs organisations ont été visées, mais l’explication derrière ces incidents pourrait être bien moins inquiétante qu’elle n’en a l’air.
Una inchiesta in Inghilterra ha fatto luce sugli adattatori da viaggio: molti non sono sicuri. Anche in Italia quelli più venduti hanno problemi di design: mancanza della terra e fusibili oltre le soglie di tolleranza... Leggi tutto
An AI-assisted counterexample disproves the Jacobian conjecture above two dimensions while leaving its original two-dimensional form open. A formula short enough to fit inside a single post on X has sent a surge of excitement through the mathematical community, just as millions of people were settling down after the FIFA World Cup Final. Levent Alpöge, [...]

Equity investors are learning a harsh lesson this corporate earnings season: Not all artificial intelligence trades are created equal.
Google sta lavorando a un assistente basato sull'intelligenza artificiale che offre suggerimenti e consente di porre domande durante la configurazione di un nuovo smartphone. "L'anima" sarà ovviamente Gemini, che di fatto promette di assistere gli utenti sin dalla prima accensione del loro Android.Le novità sono essenzialmente due:consigli personalizzati in base all'account, suggerimenti basati sui contenuti a schermo e possibilità – per Gemini &n
By studying a gene associated with congenital heart defects, scientists uncovered a mechanism showing how small reductions in protein levels can disrupt DNA’s three-dimensional structure and lead to disease. A baby can inherit one healthy copy of TBX5 and still develop serious heart defects if the other copy does not work. That genetic imbalance is [...]
A local judge has ruled that Waymo can no longer use its side-by-side charging facilities overnight in Santa Monica, California, as these may pose a “public nuisance.”Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Bradley S. Phillips granted this week the City of Santa Monica’s motion for a preliminary injunction in the city’s ongoing public nuisance lawsuit against the autonomous vehicle giant.City officials and neighbors assert that the constant stream of vehicles at the charging stations create light and s
