By Bob Novella, on December 9th, 2011 A 40 year old moon mystery may have been solved recently.
It looks like we may have two viable theories why some moon rocks are magnetized even though the moon has no magnetic field. Not only that, up until recently, there was no theoretical mechanism by which the moon could even create a magnetic field.

By Bob Novella, on August 19th, 2011 There’s been an interesting development in the whole cold-blooded/warm-blooded dinsosaur debate. A brand new method has been developed to reveal the most accurate body temperature of dinosaurs to date.
The results show that some dinosaurs were actually as warm-blooded as many modern mammals but they were also cooler than birds.
Researchers, led by Robert Eagle [...]
By Bob Novella, on August 5th, 2011 Some Scientists are now saying that life in the Universe may be rarer than we thought, but they also say that on the other hand it might not.
That might sounds wishy washy but often, when you dive in deeper the science gets really interesting and you see where they’re coming from……kind-of.

By Bob Novella, on July 21st, 2011 Scientists at the University of California at Berkley, believe that in the near future, computers will compute with nanometer-sized bar-magnets (nano-magnets) resulting in one million times less energy being required than current silicon-chip-based computers use.
This is possible because no electrons will be used for the computers logic operations. No electrons means…no electrical resistance and no [...]
By Bob Novella, on July 1st, 2011 Just when you thought lasers couldn’t get any cooler…the next potentially wicked type of laser may be a bio-laser.
Researchers have tweaked biological cells in such a way that they can actually emit monochromatic, coherent light…amplified beams of light in which all photons are essentially the same wavelength and in phase with each other…in other [...]
