A copper camouflage shell, inspired by the chameleon, is the first to render sensors invisible to both thermal and electric image detection. Current technologies that
Older people struggle to remember important details because their brains can’t resist the irrelevant “stuff” they soak up subconsciously. Researchers looked at brain activity from
There’s new evidence that microbes influence a wine’s terroir, or its distinctive regional characteristics. The study, which appears in mBio, also suggests that such microbial signatures associated
An ancient space rock discovered in a Swedish quarry is a type of meteorite never before found on Earth. “In our entire civilization, we have
Extraterrestrials may one day try and get in touch with us, but after deconstructing the Fermi paradox and pairing it with the mediocrity principle, astronomers
Researchers boosted kindergarteners’ performance on formal arithmetic problems with a quick, fun game that exercised kids’ intuitive ability to estimate numbers. The effects of the
A new technique prepares donor neural stem cells and grafts them into an older brain. The work hints at the possibility of replacing brain cells
