Light pollution lured more than 45 million grasshoppers into Las Vegas in 2019, new study finds
Researchers from the University of Oklahoma and the University of Notre Dame found that the more than 45 million grasshoppers that swarmed Las Vegas one summer night in 2019 did so due to light pollution. The researchers said that artificial lights lured the grasshoppers into the city, noting that the greatest numbers were concentrated over where the lights were brightest. “It’s really hard to […]

Lunar mining: Researchers propose creating arcs of lightning to extract water and metal from the moon
Researchers propose using arcs of lightning to extract lunar resources such as water and metals all at once. The technique, called “ablative arc mining,” will be “like putting lightning over the surface of the moon,” according to lead researcher Amelia Greig, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at the Aerospace Center at the University of […]

First global geologic map of Saturn’s moon Titan reveals an amazing liquid landscape
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has released the first global geological map of Saturn’s biggest moon, Titan. Made using data from NASA’s Cassini mission, the map offers a unique glimpse into the distinct geologic features of Titan. Rich streams of liquids flow through the Mercury-sized world, revealing a liquid landscape formed through the same […]

Dual-function catalyst produces hydrogen fuel while cleaning up polluted water
Researchers developed a new catalyst that generates hydrogen fuel while destroying water pollutants. In a study published on March 17 in the journal ACS ES&T Engineering, the researchers described how they merged multiple metals to more efficiently produce hydrogen from wastewater. Exploring a clean and efficient way of generating hydrogen Hydrogen is a low-polluting source of energy and one of the most abundant […]

Mars’ “missing” water has been locked up in the planet’s crust, study finds
Researchers from the California Institute of Technology found that most of the “missing” water on Mars did not really escape into space. Instead, the bulk of Martian water likely remained on the planet, locked up inside its crust through water-bearing minerals. Where did the water on Mars go? Scientists long suspected that liquid water used to flow […]

Wounds on sharks are infection-free thanks to a complex germ ecosystem on the skin that prevent contamination
Sharks swim in dirty ocean waters that could easily cause infection, yet experts rarely see gaping shark wounds getting infected. Now, an international team of researchers has figured out what’s keeping shark wounds free from contamination. In a study published in the journal Animal Microbiome, the researchers explained that the skin of black-tip reef sharks is […]

Biggest piece of ISS space junk will tumble down to Earth in a few years
An enormous lump of space junk that the International Space Station (ISS) dumped on March 11 is slated to fall back to Earth in two to four years, according to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The 2.9-ton piece of space junk, a pallet of old nickel-hydrogen batteries given the name “Exposed Pallet 9” or “EP9,” is the largest thing that […]

5 innovative water harvesting techniques for dry, off-grid areas
Clean water is a scarce resource in dry, off-grid environments. In these areas, conventional water sources such as snowfall, rainfall, river runoff and groundwater are rare if not completely absent. But innovative water sourcing methods could help address that scarcity. In an article for the Conversation, environmental scientists Manzoor Qadir and Vladimir Smakhtin, both from United Nations University […]

Study: Mars was once habitable; atmosphere likely formed through the same process as Earth’s
A tantalizing new study published in the journal Nature Astronomy suggests that Mars might have been habitable before. Researchers from Hong Kong and China found that the Martian atmosphere might have evolved in the same way the Earth’s atmosphere did – it was once filled with toxic gases that warmed the planet, then a great oxidation event that […]

Pentagon’s solar panel in space could one day supply electricity to any place on Earth
Researchers with the Department of Defense successfully harvested solar energy from space using a solar panel that could one day beam energy to any place on Earth. Called the Photovoltaic Radiofrequency Antenna Module (PRAM), the prototype solar panel is currently the size of a pizza box but could eventually be scaled up in order to send enormous amounts […]
