A new study examined how astronauts’ red blood cells and bone density can be affected by microgravity, but can be restored upon return to Earth from the International Space Station (ISS) by bone marrow fat. This research may aid in the better understanding of the effects of reduced gravity on the human body both in […]

The “leaky-wave metasurfaces” that Columbia Engineering researchers have created are a new class of integrated photonic devices that can transform light that was once constrained in an optical waveguide into any kind of optical pattern in free space. A global record is set by these devices, which are the first to show simultaneous control of […]
Asteroids and comets occasionally receive attention from the scientific community, in addition to the planets and moons of our solar system. Not simply because they are made up of fragments of the early solar system, but also because they are fascinating visual phenomena. This especially true with comets, as their bright tails that create incredible […]
