There are challenges in physics. For example, when light interacts with matter, light seems to slow down. When incident light (light that falls on a subject) is on an interface, the standard wave equation is satisfied on both sides. Solving…

Products that have Qualified Manufacturers List (QML) designations are often the most trusted and readily accepted in space program designs. As designated by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), the RT PolarFire FPGA from Microchip…

MIT engineers designed a system that can efficiently harness the sun's heat to split water and generate hydrogen. The goal is to produce green, carbon-free hydrogen fuel with a train-like system of reactors driven solely by the sun.…

In its innovation of unique technologies for use in space, NASA has developed and licensed a myriad of treatments and products, especially for those with injuries and disabilities. Examples include an “anti-gravity" treadmill used by…

Defects can make a material stronger or fail catastrophically. However, knowing how fast they travel helps researchers understand ruptures, structural failures, and precision manufacturing. Recently, scientists discovered that tiny linear…

Graphene has remarkable properties, especially when you stack up multiple sheets. Should those sheets be twisted at specific angles relative to each other, they exhibit a plethora of exotic identities. These materials, known as moiré…

Researchers at UC Davis developed a proof-of-concept sensor with the potential for millimeter-wave radars. They’ve dubbed the design a “mission impossible” made possible. These radars send fast-moving electromagnetic waves to targets to…

Innovation and technology are shaping the world we live in, providing solutions to a wide range of challenges across industries. One emerging concept gaining significant attention is 'dual use innovation and technology,' or developing and…

Researchers at the University of Oxford may provide the mechanism to repair brain injuries, demonstrating that neural cells can be 3D printed to mimic the architecture of the cerebral cortex. The results are published today in the journal …

To say that the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is upending our thoughts about the universe is an understatement. Scientists were shocked when they saw the telescope's first images of the universe's earliest galaxies. The galaxies…
