Catherine Garland, an astrophysicist, started seeing the problem in 2017. She was teaching an engineering course, and her students were using simulation software to model turbines for jet engines. She’d laid out the assignment clearly, but student after student was calling her over for help. Kids who grew up with search engines could change STEM education forever -

Either my piece is a work of the highest rank, or it is not a work of the highest rank. In the latter (and more probable) case I myself am in favour of it not being printed. And in the former case it’s a matter of indifference whether it’s printed twenty or a hundred years sooner or later. Ludwig Wittgenstein: a mind on fire - New Statesman

"Things in equilibrium tend to be quite boring," says Professor Jaakko Timonen, whose research group carried out new work published in Science Advances on 15 September. "It's fascinating to drive systems out of equilibrium and see if the non-equilibrium structures can be controlled or be useful. Physicists make square droplets and liquid lattices

Scientists at the LLNL's National Ignition Facility (NIF) are using a powerful laser to heat and compress hydrogen fuel, with the goal of initiating fusion. In order to reach the milestone of "ignition," they must show that the energy released by fusion exceeds the energy delivered by the laser. Physicists Say We're Officially at the "Threshold of Nuclear Fusion Ignitio

Small aerosol particles spewed while people breathe, talk and sing may contain more coronavirus than larger moisture droplets do.

Earlier this week, we received this question from a fan on Facebook who wondered how many decimals of the mathematical constant pi (π) NASA-JPL scientists and engineers use when making calculations: Does JPL only use 3.14 for its pi calculations? Or do you use more decimals like say: 3. How Many Decimals of Pi Do We Really Need? - Edu News | NASA/JPL Edu

Scientists have created key parts of synthetic brain cells that can hold cellular "memories" for milliseconds. The achievement could one day lead to computers that work like the human brain. Current computers can do incredible things, but this processing power comes at a high energy cost. Synthetic brain cells that store 'memories' are possible, new model reveals
