If you've ever longed to see Earth from space, now is your chance— with Science on a Sphere, a spectacular feature at the heart of the new exhibition Water: H_2O = Life. In this exhibit, a six-f...

in the life of twins, in their actions, in their experiences, their professions, their accomplishments, their positions—in all the other circumstances of human life, and even in death itself, there is often found such a diversity that in those respects many strangers show more resemblance to ...
What we need is a science fiction novel that explores such adaptation on the level of Nineteen Eighty-Four or The Handmaid’s Tale. We need to imagine where this is going. I don’t use AI to write my blogs, but I do use the realtime spelling and grammar checker that’s built into ...
On a more localized scale, material around craters tends to exhibit a significant chemical contrast relative to surrounding regions, suggesting an excavation of material from the subsurface due to impacts from asteroids and comets. Distribution patterns seem to favor an impact rather than a volcanic ...
Aperture Science, Inc.[7] is a United States-based scientific research corporation appearing as the main antagonistic organization in Portal and Portal 2. Its logo also appears on the Borealis in Half-Life 2: Episode Two. The main facility is the Apertur
If the elastic response of a material depends on the orientation of the material for a given stress configuration, the material is said to be anisotropic. Thus the elastic moduli of an anisotropic material are different for different directions in the material. Most rocks are anisotropic to some...
However, no solution to this problem has yet been experimentally demonstrated on devices that can exhibit quantum computational advantages (such as GBS devices) due to their programmability limitations. Using our universal programmable GBS device Abacus, we use a method, inspired by Tang et al.26,...
Even the circle, square, etc., of geometry exhibit a difference from the squares and circles of familiar acquaintance, and the further one proceeds in mathematical science the greater the remoteness from the everyday empirical thing. In one case, as in the other, the meaning, or intellectual ...
*The introduction of randomness into the science of physics through the development of quantum mechanics, breaking the assumption of a deterministic universe. *The animating effect of mortality on the human imagination. Pynchon has brilliantly combined German political and cultural history with the mechan...
