John Etnyre receives funding from the National Science Foundation and the Elaine M. Hubbard Distinguished Faculty Award When you look at your surrounding environment, it might seem like you’re ...

Science correspondent Allan Blackman joins Kathryn to talk about what samples of the asteroid Bennu reveal about the building blocks of life on Earth. He'll also look at what's happening with the ...

The result? A self-healing, shape-shifting system that could change how we build and interact with materials. “We’ve figured out a way for robots to behave more like a material,” said Matthew Devlin, ...

STAYING IN SHAPE is a continuous process. If you've ever had to press pause on your routine, changed up your lifestyle, moved away from your favorite gym, or just fallen out of the habit of ...

We have a rough idea of the size and shape of this field, but the fine particulars elude our understanding. Now, a new computational study has revealed a surprising structure – a spiral generated by ...

Bennu’s potential collision with Earth is a remote but unsettling possibility, according to a new study. Bennu is about 500 metres wide—taller than the Empire State Building and as wide as ...

The asteroid Bennu has been at the centre of scientific discussions recently, especially after researchers analysed surface samples collected by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission. While much of the ...

Scientists recently completed computer simulations of what would happen to Earth if it were impacted by an asteroid with a diameter the size of the 500-meter-wide Bennu. It’s not good. Why Bennu? Well ...
