As governments, coupled with research organisations and commercial clients, find the cash to make lunar missions happen and some like India do it on a shoestring budget, we face the very real prospect of moonshots becoming a truly global venture. That alone is an achievement worth celebrating
Antimicrobial resistance already kills millions and is projected to get worse. But there is little incentive for Big Pharma to tackle the issue
In late June, a team of American astrophysicists published a pre-peer-reviewed paper on the net. It claimed that massive “invisible” bosenovas may be occurring all around us all the time.
The claimed discovery of a room-temperature, ambient-pressure superconductor opens up possibilities for less restriction on their widespread practical applications.
The facilitation of this test underscores ISRO's "commitment to nurture private players, start-ups, and non-government entities in developing the country's space eco-system", the space agency said in a release
India is now the world’s third largest producer of scientific research which is a great achievement, now it needs to scale up the quality of its research
Lauding ISRO, US space agency NASA’s administrator Bill Nelson expressed anticipation for the scientific findings that will emerge from this mission.
August 15 this year will mark two decades of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee announcing the Chandrayaan programme. India hopes the failure-based design approach and robust testing done by the ISRO on C3 will ensure a successful mission and an expanded lunar exploration programme for the future.
Accelerated melting of the polar ice sheets and mountain glaciers had changed the way mass was distributed around the planet enough to influence its spin.
Scientists who announced that they had created "synthetic human embryos" should worry that the name and the still unanswered questions about how these so-called synthetic embryos were created and related misunderstandings could lead to bans that could derail this important scientific work representing a potentially significant breakthrough in the study of infertility
New scientific methods are helping researchers understand how dreams can boost brainpower
The temperature on the exoplanet, WASP-76b, rises up to 4,350 degrees Fahrenheit or 2,400 degrees Celsius, which is hot enough to vaporize iron.
.The first evidence of a virgin birth in crocodiles has been reported in a captive American crocodile at a Costa Rica zoo.
Mice fed Taurine, an amino acid, lived 10–12 percent longer; worms’ lives were extended 10-23 percent; and middle-aged monkeys showed improvements across health parameters. But we don't know the dangers of Taurine supplements to human health, including on cancerous cells. Years of research lie ahead

The white-coloured humanoid "Garmi" does not look much different from a typical robot -- it stands on a platform with wheels and is equipped with a black screen on which two blue circles acting as eyes are attached. Garmi is a product of a new sector called geriatronics, a discipline that taps advanced technologies like robotics, IT and 3D technology for geriatrics, gerontology and nursing.
The British Indian leader said the new Science and Technology Framework is designed to challenge every part of government to better put the UK at the forefront of global science and technology this decade through 10 key actions, creating a coordinated cross-government approach.
