| Scientists create novel 'liquid wire' material inspired by spiders' capture silk Posted: 16 May 2016 03:10 PM PDT Why doesn't a spider's web sag in the wind or catapult flies back out like a trampoline? The answer, according to scientists, lies in the physics behind a 'hybrid' material produced by spiders for their webs. |
| Animal training techniques teach robots new tricks Posted: 16 May 2016 09:59 AM PDT Researchers are using ideas from animal training to help non-expert users teach robots how to do desired tasks. |
| Hunting for hidden life on worlds orbiting old, red stars Posted: 16 May 2016 09:53 AM PDT Astronomers have modeled the locations of the habitable zones for aging stars and how long planets can stay in it. |
| Artificial intelligence replaces physicists Posted: 16 May 2016 06:15 AM PDT Physicists are putting themselves out of a job, using artificial intelligence to run a complex experiment. The experiment created an extremely cold gas trapped in a laser beam, known as a Bose-Einstein condensate, replicating the experiment that won the 2001 Nobel Prize. |
