Satellites and drones can help save pollinators
Satellites and drones can provide key information to protect pollinators, researchers say. A new study examines new ways of using these technologies to track the availability of flowers, and says this could be combined with behavioural studies to see the world through the eyes of insects. The flowers available to insects vary from day to […]
Seashell-inspired shield protects materials in hostile environments: Environmentally friendly coating outperforms conventional materials
Word of an extraordinarily inexpensive material, lightweight enough to protect satellites against debris in the cold of outer space, cohesive enough to strengthen the walls of pressurized vessels experiencing average conditions on Earth and yet heat-resistant enough at 1,500 degrees Celsius or 2,732 degrees Fahrenheit to shield instruments against flying debris, raises the question: what […]
