Ocean temperature patterns appear to act as a natural brake on the global spread of drought, preventing vast areas of the planet from drying out simultaneously. Researchers found that shifting climate cycles create regional drought hotspots while reducing the likelihood of a worldwide agricultural crisis., Read MoreContinue Reading
A week after earthquakes tore through northern Venezuela, hospitals in La Guaira are buckling under the weight of the disaster – and the risk of disease outbreaks in shelters is rising fast.Continue Reading

NASA astronaut Chris Williams jogs while strapped to the treadmill inside the International Space Station’s Tranquility module. The treadmill is specifically designed to enable jogging and maintain cardiovascular health in microgravity. NASA Health checks and CubeSat hardware maintenance were the prime research objectives aboard the International Space Station on Wednesday.Continue Reading
GRX-810 is a new metal alloy developed by NASA for 3D printing parts that can withstand the extreme temperatures of rocket engines, allowing affordable printing of high-heat parts. Credit: NASA Host Andres Almeida: In the aviation world, there’s a 3D-printed metal superalloy that can withstand extreme conditions, and another material that can actually “remember” its shape as temperatures change. NASA-ledContinue Reading
