People often wonder how photographers capture stunning images of nature’s hidden moments. One of the most impressive examples is a time-lapse showing a chicken embryo growing inside an egg. The person behind this eye-opening footage is a photographer who has turned tiny, fast-moving creatures into s
A new study shows how changing the space inside a special material can help store more magnesium ions. The material is made of niobium and sulfur atoms arranged in a quasi‑one‑dimensional pattern. By adding large organic ions called BMPyrr⁺, the layers of this material open up. This opening lets mag
The International Linear Collider (ILC) Technology Network, created in 2022 by the ILC International Development Team—a group within the International Committee for Future Accelerators—has begun to make progress on engineering studies that could bring the ILC into reality. Rather than staying con
Engineers shape the roads, bridges and water that keep communities alive. Their work is often hidden behind everyday life, yet it decides how safe and clean our world feels. The latest National Engineer’s Week highlighted this unseen influence, urging young people to see engineering as a creat
The fair in Boulder Valley brought together middle and high school students from 15 schools to showcase their own research. Amika Begin, a junior at Nederland Middle/Senior High, studied how social media helps college athletes earn money. She tested whether likes and comments or the sheer numb
The world of science is full of information. But much of it is stuck in words, not numbers. This makes it hard to find new things. A new way to solve this problem has been created. It uses AI to read and understand science words. Then, it turns them into useful data. This new method is like a detec
Iowa is thinking about making it illegal to mess with the weather. This isn't just about stopping rain dances or wishing for sunshine. It's about controlling things like cloud seeding, where people try to make it rain by throwing tiny particles into the air. The idea is to stop anyone from changing
Walking on the Moon is not like floating in space. On the Moon, astronauts use their legs to move around. This puts more pressure on their knees, hips, and other leg muscles. It might be better for the body to use legs instead of arms for movement. Humans are built to walk and run long distances. So
The human body is a complex machine. When it breaks down, fixing it can be a long and difficult process. But what if doctors could just print out a new part right where it's needed? That's the idea behind in-situ bioprinting. It's like having a tiny 3D printer that can create new tissue or even orga
The Challenger disaster, which happened 40 years ago, is a stark reminder of the importance of listening to experts. The story begins with Bob Ebeling, an engineer at Morton Thiokol, who was deeply troubled by the idea of launching the space shuttle in cold weather. He and other engineers had data s
