-(Natural News) Scientists at the University of Massachusetts Lowell developed a safer and more efficient way to power electric cars. The scientists said that this method will allow electric vehicles of all sizes to run longer with zero emissions. Using water, carbon dioxide, and cobalt, this innovation can produce hydrogen gas on-demand at a relatively […]

-(Natural News) Fingerprints have been used for many years to identify individuals based on the unique makeup of their fingerprints. But there are actually unique identifiers that exist in nature as well, and amazingly, there is a certain type of “fingerprint” that is so small, it can only be detected by specialized instruments. A new […]

-(Natural News) Sewing torn clothes might just become a thing of the past. In a new study published in Frontiers in Chemistry, scientists discovered a way to transform self-healing and self-repairing squid ring teeth (SRT) into a coating that could repair rips and tears in fabrics, and could potentially replace plastic. Coating made from squid […]

-(Natural News) One of the wonders of the human body is how coordinated everything seems to be. Each part of the body works together in perfect tandem to allow physiological, cognitive, and behavioral functions. Researchers have looked into how the many parts of the body cooperate almost flawlessly, and a new study now sheds light […]

-(Natural News) Do you ever wonder why it’s so hard to see at night? That’s because humans, as well as some other mammals, can only see specific wavelengths of light called visible light. The visible light that a human’s natural vision can perceive accounts for only a small fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum. In general, humans […]
