Singapore, after struggling to find staff during pandemic, has gradually adopted the shift towards deploying robots to help carry out a range of tasks, from surveying construction sites to scanning library bookshelves. Robots are also being used for customer-facing tasks, with more than 30 metro stations set to have robots making coffee for commuters.Read More
In a new research, it has been revealed that the body’s immune response and the lymphatic system (a part of the immune system) are critical in the heart’s ability to repair itself after an attack. These macrophages release a specific sort of protein called VEGFC as the first responders on the scene after a heart…
A new research suggests that the Darwinian evolution could be happening up to four times faster than previously thought. Based on an analysis of genetic variation, the researchers state evolution can happen faster if there are more genetic differences in a species. This is because certain traits die off and stronger ones get established. The…
A new warp speed experiment might provide an indirect verification of physicist Stephen Hawking’s black hole prediction. Scientists propose to capture a glimpse of the ethereal quantum glow that envelops things travelling at close to the speed of light by coaxing an atom to become invisible. Because the effect is so closely related to the…
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have tried to find ways to ensure that motorists don’t have to wait at a traffic intersection for the signal to change its colour. They have devised a method through which vehicles can reach the signal precisely at a time when it is green using consistency by…
Archaeologists in Egypt have unearthed enormous collection of rare artefacts from the Saqqara Necropolis on Monday. The team disclosed a stockpile of ornately decorated coffins or sarcophagi, sealed with mummies, along with a number of bronze statuettes.Read More
Reports of bomb-like blizzards and scorching droughts provide a dreadful image of climate change’s potential reality. In recent decades, modern data demonstrate an unnatural global warming trend that has taken control of the Earth’s climate. Humans release heat-trapping carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, raising global temperatures.Read More
The discovery of a unique neutron star producing unusual radio signals in our Milky Way galaxy could open the path for a whole new class of stellar objects. The neutron star emitted strange-looking flash or pulse 1,300 light-years away that lasted roughly 300 milliseconds. The flash resembled a radio-emitting neutron star in appearance.Read More
NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter has completed record-breaking 25 flights in the tenuous atmosphere. When the tiny helicopter was sent to the one-way trip, engineers had only planned for five flights. However, Ingenuity has surpassed expectations and has taken over 25 flights.Read More
