Mass extinction is not just a theory; Earth has already gone through five of them, including the event about 65 million years ...

3D printers aren't just for making random statues and toys, as admittedly fun as that is. They are tools that can create just about anything out of nothing but plastic filament, and if you put your ...

Tool use was once considered a uniquely human trait, setting us apart from other animals. However, scientific research has increasingly revealed that numerous species across the animal kingdom ...

Using an affordable 3D printer and the CRAFT method, researchers created a model human hand from a single feedstock with distinct domains that mimic the hardness or flexibility of skin, ligaments, ...

Shell is planning to build a pilot hydrogen project using a novel membrane-less low-temperature electrolyser that requires only 42 kilowatt hours of energy to produce each kilogram of hydrogen, ...

Did you know that animals also make use of tools to make their lives easier? When we think of tool use, humans often come to mind. However, many species have impressive creativity and are innovative ...

Physically, sound is just pressure moving through a medium. If you harness that pressure correctly, you can actually push things around using nothing but sound. That's exactly what researchers at ...

Further remains of an unusual deep-sea creature called a seven-arm octopus have been found on an Aberdeenshire beach. Arms with rows of suckers were initially discovered by a member of the public at ...

Oddly shaped conch shells found at Neolithic archaeological sites dating back 6,000 years could have served as technology for producing an extremely loud noise, scientists have discovered. The tests ...

A group of researchers from the State University of Campinas (UNICAMP) in the state of São Paulo, Brazil, developed a product made from native bee honey and cocoa bean shells that can be consumed ...

A soft robotic system uses liquid crystal elastomers to merge shape shifting, gripping, and color change, demonstrating fully integrated motion and optical feedback within a single flexible material. ...
