Astronomers first witnessed the birth of a system of binary neutron stars
the Completion of the life cycle of stars can occur in different ways. Some turn into black holes, others are scattered in the nebula. If the star had a very large mass, at her death, the light may appear to be a neutron star – a ...
Astronomers have discovered 20 mysterious radio signals from outer space
a Large number of fast radiuspacket (FRB), discovered by Australian scientists can help astronomers to finally understand the mysterious nature and find out the source of these powerful radio pulses from deep space. The article of...
As Saturn will help to improve the engines on the Ground?
Most modern engines running on hydrocarbon fuels. When burned, formed a rather large amount of energy, which is enough for the effective use of a variety of vehicles. However, according to the editors of the journal Nature, Astron...
Established drugs the "time bomb" to fight infections
Humanity, perhaps, its history is a relentless fight against bacteria, inventing all new and new "tools" for this battle. And most recently, as reported by the editors of the journal of the American Chemical Society, has developed...
In the brain found the area responsible for the "sleep mode"
two decades ago, a group of researchers from the medical center Beth Israel Deaconess in Boston and is a teaching hospital for Harvard medical school, found in the brain the nerve cells, which, according to scientists, моглb to be...
The new technology allows to detect lung cancer at a very early stage
One of the most dangerous forms of cancer is non-small cell lung cancer, which often leads to death due to the fact that the means to diagnose the disease at an early stage is often not very effective. However, as reported by jour...
A new study shows that nerve cells are still recovering
"Nerve cells do not regenerate". This expression is known to everyone. But it was a lot of research on this topic and failed to prove that it is not so. Moreover, in a recent study, published in the journal Cell Stem Cell, it is ...
Discovered bacteria that can destroy nuclear waste
One of the main problems of using radioactive fuel is dumping its exhaust waste. Moreover, the risk to the environment is not so much the material as the migration of radionuclides in soil and air. But recently a group of Russian...
Scientists restore memory in Alzheimer's disease
One of the most unpleasant manifestations of Alzheimer's disease is the gradual loss of memory and memories, which radically changes the whole personality of a person. However, it is possible that soon we will be able to handle i...
An experiment was initiated for modeling the first artificial quantum life
Modern computers give a lot of possibilities for simulation of different situations. However, any calculations will be somewhat "linear", as they are subject to clearly defined algorithms, and can't retreat. And this system does ...
"Quantum vibe" can reveal the secrets of matter
Over the last few years some materials were ground for physicists. These materials are not to be made of something special — ordinary particles, protons, neutrons and electrons. But they are more than just the sum of their parts. ...
China accused of stealing secrets from American technogiant
the Tiny chips that were introduced in the American computer equipment manufactured in China, were used in efforts by Beijing to steal U.S. technology secrets, said in a report published on Thursday. Bloomberg claims that these ch...

have You ever had several times to re-read the text to understand its essence? This problem is probably familiar to all — as a student, faced each. Researchers from Royal Melbourne University teamed with a local design school and ...
Created material that produces hydrogen fuel through artificial photosynthesis
In the course of evolution and the evolution of species, nature had "invented" a number of very interesting processes, which even at present development of technologies to reproduce is extremely difficult. One such process is pho...
Saturn devouring his own ring. Coming to the planet will soon disappear
Worked around Saturn for almost 20 years, NASA's space probe "Cassini" even in the last moments of his life did not cease to transmit to Earth the amazing facts about the gas giant. After analyzing another portion of the informati...
Discovered microquasar emitting powerful gamma radiation
The study of distant (and not) space can shed light on the structure of our galaxy and even the universe. Every day scientists from around the world are watching celestial bodies and galaxies and very often these works are reward...
The crew of "Soyuz MS-08" returned to Earth unharmed
the Crew of the manned transport spacecraft (WPK) "Soyuz MS-08" safely on the Ground today after undocking from the International space station, according to Roscosmos. The descent module landed in Kazakhstan steppe on 4 October 2...
For the first time revealed the structure of the protein responsible for antibiotic resistance
The formation of bacterial resistance to antibiotics is studied well enough and preparations for combating harmful microorganisms still do not allow them to take over from us. At the same time remained in the mechanisms of develo...
The volunteers played "Tetris" with the power of thoughts
In 2017, the founder of Tesla and SpaceX Elon Musk got the idea to create an interface to directly exchange information between human brain and computer. For this he is , but there is a great probability that in the embodiment of ...
The new study limits the contribution of black holes to dark matter
Statistical analysis of 740 supernova explosions found that the black holes may have no more than 40 percent of the amount of dark matter present in the Universe, which, in turn, scored another nail in the coffin of the theory of ...
