A team of New York University researchers has created a new way to visualize crystals by peering inside their structures, akin to having X-ray vision. Their new technique—which they aptly named “Crystal Clear”—combines the use of transparent particles and microscopes with lasers that allow scientists to see each unit that makes up the crystal and to create dynamic three-dimensional models.

Starlink achieves ‘a new internal median latency record’ of 28 milliseconds, Elon Musk says.

Experts from Germany believe their most recent breakthrough advances the quality of solid-state, sodium-ion batteries.

It’s technology that many researchers are pursuing as a replacement for common lithium-ion power packs, with the hope of finding a better-performing and cheaper alternative.

Several passengers on a United Airlines flight from Vancouver, Canada, to Houston, Texas, fell sick on Friday, with officials explaining that 75 passengers came from a cruise.

Some systems are still down, but medical staff can now use the computer system for patient care after almost four weeks.

The recent discovery of a complete Genyornis newtoni skull has given scientists their first face-to-face encounter with the extinct, massive ‘thunder bird.’

Coral reefs, nurturing hubs of marine biodiversity, are grappling with mounting threats from environmental shifts. Traditional monitoring techniques, often laborious and invasive, are proving inadequate in the face of rapid ecological changes.
