Glassware is an integral part of a chemistry laboratory since it involves low cost and precision. Even though some lab-ware seems to be supplemented with everyday kitchen materials and plastic, glass is still the right choice and standard material preferred by laboratories to get the work done well. Though there are very few glassware rules, there are certain best practices …

If you are the type of person that cannot just pass by a clump of soil without giving it a second glance, geology might just be your calling. Rock to you means more than just something to throw. You have balls for that. You can harness that interest in an area of study that allows you to work with soil …

A deadly fungus can be found in 23 species in the United States of America and poses a global threat to the reptiles of the world, forming fast-spreading lesions across the body of snakes. This is according to a new study that was published on Wednesday in the journal Science Advances, which warns of the fungus known as Ophidiomyces ophidiodiicola. …

This is probably one of the most important projects. Our team is set to build a nano satellite launcher, that will open up the space to all. We are designing regeneratively cooled 3d printed expander cycle liquid oxygen/kerosene rocket engine( E1 ) that will power the First stage nanosatellite launcher. We’re starting with the core technology: a propulsion system that consists …

Most of us are aware of the fact that technology based resources are nothing short of a boon with relation to the cost and time saving factors concerned. The same applies to Edtech ones provided the right tools are picked from the lot and put to use. To tackle this challenge, we have provided certain trends that are worth following …

The moon may be 238,900miles away from Earth, but with a new lunar model and accompanying AR app, it might as well be in the palm of your hand. AstroReality, a Bay Area-based startup whose co-founder is an astro-photographer, is creating hand-painted, 3D-printed moon models to bring the moon’s surface down to Earth. The Lunar Pro is a softball-sized, one-pound …

We really should be used to this by now, but it’s just too cool. SpaceX has landed its fifth Falcon 9 rocket booster back on land after launching a spacecraft to orbit for NASA. In doing so, it became the first private company to launch the same cargo capsule into orbit more than once. The landing — which took place …

Tesla Musk introducing Solar Roof in October of 2016. Tesla CEO Elon is the best car salesman in history. And as CEO of SpaceX, he’s declared his intention to retire on Mars. But what are supercar-fast electric vehicles and low-Earth orbits in the face of … roofing. Against all odds, Musk has become perhaps the biggest booster in the history …

By now you may have seen them: Breathless headlines flowing through the viral ether declaring that a new study has found the “first” evidence that we live in just one of many different parallel universes. You might be thinking to yourself that, “It’s amazing! It’s science! The articles use the word ‘study,’ so it must be real! We’re about to …

The first ever largest map of the large-scale structure of the universe has been made by the scientists. The map is based on the positions of quasars, that are immensely bright and distant points of light purely powered by gigantic black holes. “Because quasars are so bright, we can see them all the way across the universe,” said Ashley Ross …

A current in the Indian Ocean could be a primary contributing factor to the changes in global climatic conditions in the future, new reports say. The Agulhas Current, which is one of the strongest currents in the world, is growing wider rather than strengthening in force, scientistshave discovered. The study conducted by researchers from the University of Miami’s Rosenstiel School …

The country’s own most prestigious and dream project named as South Asian satellite is all set to be launched by 2017 exclusively for the benefits of SAARC members. The proposal was carried forward by Honourable PM Narendra Modi in the presence of Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) Chairman A S Kiran Kumar. The satellite, although, was pre-decided to be launched …

While in India, ISRO’S successfully launched 7 satellites, NASA made strides far beyond.NASA’s Kepler and Swift missions have discovered a batch of 18 stars that spins so hard that the shape gets flattened, “squashed into pumpkin-like shapes”. Astronomers at NASA think this is the result ofbinary systems where two sun-like stars merge, as per NASA’s official site. Steve Howell, a …

The Indian Space Research Organization is known to be all set for the launch of the satellite SCATSAT-1 along with seven other satellites on 26th September. This will be placed on the SSO (Sun Synchronous Orbit), with the purpose of providing benefit for the scientists who would be able to monitor with decent accuracy the ocean and the weather and …

Transmitted from the infected mosquitoes, Chikungunya is a viral disease causing severe pains in the joints along with fever. This viral disease also shares some of the most common clinical signs as seen in dengue. Indeed, there is a greater possibility that this viral disease could be misdiagnosed in the places where dengue is widespread. Occurring in parts of Asia, …

It’s time we take a look at our closest neighbour planet, Mars, even without a telescope. The planet is going to be closer to Earth on May 30th than its has been in the last 11 years. The average distance of thered planet is 400 million kilometres from Mother Earth but on May 30, the planet will be only 75.3 …
