Scientists say ozone loss could have been spotted in the 1950s, because today’s layered satellite tools reveal that industrial chemicals were already thinning the atmosphere long before the Antarctic hole was foundA new study reveals that ozone depletion might have been detectable in the 1950s, predating widespread CFC use. Carbon tetrachloride, an in...
Why is NASA freezing atoms in Space? The answer could change future space missionsInside a mini-refrigerator-sized device on the International Space Station (ISS), NASA is running an experiment that creates a spot colder ...
Rice feeds more than half the world, but scientists say current farming is crossing Earth’s safe limits for climate, water, and nutrients, and that makes every bowl part of a bigger planetary balancing actRice cultivation, a global staple, is pushing Earth's natural systems beyond safe limits, particularly concerning climate change, water use...
Word of wisdom by Werner Heisenberg: "Not only is the Universe stranger than we think, it is stranger than we can..."Word of wisdom by the quantum physics pioneer continues to inspire scientists, thinkers, and curious minds decades later. The quote is ofte...
European heatwave's unlikely accomplice: an ocean 'cold blob'Often called the "cold blob", this swath of water in the North Atlantic has bucked the global warming trend, cooling even as the planet's t...
US and China disagree on what time it is on the Moon and that could become a serious problem for future lunar missionsA subtle difference in time on the Moon, caused by weaker gravity, is emerging as a major space race issue between the US and China. This t...
