Scientists have built the first rechargeable hydride ion battery. Hydride ions (H⁻) have drawn interest as potential charge carriers for future electrochemical devices because of their extremely low mass and high redox potential. Yet, progress has been limited since no electrolyte has been able to provide the combination of rapid ion movement, thermal stability, and […]

Scientists have tested new bite-resistant wetsuits against powerful shark bites, finding they can significantly reduce life-threatening injuries. Bite-resistant wetsuits are emerging as an important new safety option. Instead of preventing shark encounters entirely, they are designed to reduce the severity of injuries such as cuts, punctures, tissue damage, and blood loss. The overall approach to […]

A detailed image reveals an unusual plasma jet structure, suggesting the presence of two merging supermassive black holes at the galaxy’s core. For more than a century and a half, the distant galaxy OJ 287, located five billion light years from Earth, has intrigued scientists with its unusual changes in brightness. Astronomers have long suspected […]

Titan’s atmosphere tilts and shifts seasonally. The discovery shapes future exploration. Researchers at the University of Bristol have uncovered unusual behavior in Titan’s atmosphere for the first time. Using data from the Cassini-Huygens mission, a collaboration between NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), and the Italian Space Agency, the team found that Saturn’s largest moon […]
