Edwards AFB CA (SPX) May 19, 2025
NASA's X-59 quiet supersonic research aircraft successfully completed a critical series of tests in which the airplane was put through its paces for cruising high above the California desert - all without ever leaving the ground.
"The idea behind these tests is to command the airplane's subsystems and flight computer to function as if it is flying," said Yohan Lin, the X-59's lead avionics

Rice University researchers have introduced a novel desalination technology designed to enhance the efficiency and adaptability of solar-powered water purification. The new system, described in a study published in Nature Water, leverages a resonant energy transfer approach that overcomes the intermittency of sunlight, a common limitation in conventional solar desalination systems.

Researchers at the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) have discovered that the spatial concentration of gas within galaxies plays a more critical role in star formation than the overall volume of gas present.
The study, led by PhD candidate Seona Lee from The University of Western Australia's ICRAR node, utilized data from around 1,000 galaxies mapped by CSIRO's ASKA

Scientists investigating the origin of life suggest that primitive membranes may have influenced which biomolecules became foundational to life. Their study examines how the earliest cell membranes could have filtered molecules, favoring those used in modern biology.
Cells are defined by their membranes, which regulate what substances can enter or leave. This control is especially relevant
