Europa is one of the largest of more than 90 moons in orbit around the planet Jupiter. It is also one of the best places to look for alien life. Often termed an “ocean world” by scientists, observations to date strongly suggest that beneath Europa’s icy crust, there could be a liquid saltwater ocean containing […]

The wellness movement appears to have the answers that our burnt-out minds need. However, psychological research and practice suggests that a superficial focus on candles, juice cleanses, and a “good vibes only” approach to life is unlikely to create meaningful changes to your wellbeing. It’s not a surprise that wellness culture has become so popular, […]

NASA is developing a Noise Prediction Tool supporting users in the Air Taxi Industry. Multiple air taxi companies are utilizing a sophisticated computer tool developed by NASA to forecast aircraft noise and aerodynamic efficiency. This tool enables manufacturers involved in NASA’s Advanced Air Mobility mission to assess early in the aircraft development phase how design […]

Over 800 years ago, around 1195, Gervase, a monk based at Canterbury Cathedral, included in his chronicles a series of reflections on natural, mostly celestial, phenomena. In this he was far from unusual. Medieval monastic thinkers often recorded celestial events such as eclipses. Most medieval observation of the heavens was by eye. Chroniclers, if not […]

Recently, artificial intelligence (AI) has been cast as a problem in the urgent, international effort to tackle climate change. As AI plays a greater role in our lives, it will need enormous amounts of computing power and data storage. As such, the carbon footprint of AI is projected to expand due to its high energy […]

Earth was long thought to be the only planet in our Solar System with an ocean, but it is beginning to look as though there are underground oceans inside even the most surprising icy bodies. In fact, icy moons and dwarf planets in the outer Solar System appear to have liquid oceans below layers of […]

NASA The White House has tasked NASA to develop the Lunar Time Standard, to support the Artemis program while maintaining America’s leadership in space exploration. According to Reuters, NASA aims to create Coordinated Lunar Time (LTC) by 2026, necessitating precise synchronization of Earth and lunar clocks. While aligning Earth’s time systems is straightforward, lunar time […]

Alisa Givertz, founder of Liquid360 and winner of the 2024 Next-Gen Womens Entrepreneurship Award sponsored by the Luzzatto Group at the Jerusalem Post Women Leaders Summit on March 27, says that the idea for creating her start-up came about when her youngest child, then five years old, disappeared from the New York hotel room where […]

A landmark new study has found that, in the last decade, the African continent has started emitting more carbon than it stores. When the total amount of carbon that is sequestered by natural ecosystems (such as the soil and plants in grasslands, savannas and forests) exceeds the amount of total carbon emissions within a system, […]
