Apocalyptic boom over Kingston and Surbiton Concorde was not flying again, a meteorite had not collided with Earth and there was no jumbo jet nose-diving toward the ground, despite what you may have heard. Rumours flew around on Twitter and Facebook after a boom reverberated across the boroughs ni...
Title: ARCONS: A highly multiplexed superconducting optical to near-IR camera Authors: Benjamin A. Mazin, Kieran O'Brien, Sean McHugh, Bruce Bumble, David Moore, Sunil Golwala, Jonas Zmuidzinas We report on the development of ARCONS, the ARray Camera for Optical to Near-IR Spectrophotometr...
The Northern lights, or Aurora, are beautiful to watch at night. But they can happen during daylight as well. If you want to predict when they will occur, try your hand at building this simple DIY detector. How to make a Aurora Detector: To make your own magnetometer all you need is a magnet with a mirror...
MIT engineers and scientist colleagues have a new vision for the future of Mars exploration: a swarm of probes, each the size of a baseball, spreading out across the planet in every direction.
Thousands of probes, powered by fuel cells, could cover a vast area now beyond the reach of today's rove...
Title: Evaporation of extrasolar planets Authors: A. Lecavelier des Etangs This article presents a review on the observations and theoretical modelling of the evaporation of extrasolar planets. The observations and the resulting constraints on the upper atmosphere (thermosphere and exosph...
Explosive Volcano May Lurk Beneath Death Valley New evidence uncovered by a team of scientists at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory suggests the dramatic crater, called Ubehebe, last erupted only 800 hundred years ago. Although that may sound like ancient history, in geo...
