Black carbon particles, which are a major component of soot, have been found to have a much greater contribution to global warming than previously thought. Yale professor Trude Storelvmo co-authored a recent study assessing the effects of these particles on climate change.
Existence is defined by limits. The limits of survival, of communication, even of scientific thinking — these are the boundaries that shape human understanding of
NASA space scientists found that flowers can germinate and grow in a microgravity environment. Their findings suggest that plants can grow on spaceships, and possibly the moon and Mars.
Humans might be superior animals when it comes to matters of intelligence or communication, but one thing we will never be able to do is fly like birds. Mathematical calculations show why our species is destined to be forever land-bound.
