A turning point in science and technology for 2025? Happy New …
The Techno-Science.net team is pleased to extend its best wishes for this new year 2025. The year 2024, which we have just closed, was rich in remarkable discoveries and advances in the fields of science and technology. Among the major events, the James Webb Telescope has continued to push the ...
The James Webb telescope, pushed to its limits, discovers these ...
Dec 11, 2024 · Astronomers may have discovered the oldest objects ever observed by pushing the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to its limits. These incredibly distant structures date back to only 200 million years after the Big Bang, a period when the Universe was still young and undergoing significant transformation.
China activates the world's most powerful hypergravity machine
Nov 29, 2024 · Designed to study complex phenomena, the platform combines three giant centrifuges and 18 onboard units. These devices spin samples at extreme speeds, pushing heavy materials outward and thus recreating hypergravity conditions.
This new type of engine pushes the boundaries of supersonic …
Dec 10, 2024 · An engine capable of transforming a shock wave into stable propulsion: this is the idea behind a recent technological breakthrough. In China, a team of researchers has developed a system that could redefine supersonic vehicles and the challenges related to their engines. Image Tsinghua University ...
Superconductivity: this discovery could redefine our …
Superconductors are divided into two types: Type I, such as lead, and Type II, such as cuprates. The latter show greater application potential, functioning at higher temperatures and resisting magnetic fields.
The Earth receives a laser communication emitted from nearly half …
Even more impressive: at even greater distances, the performance remained excellent. In June 2024, at 390 million kilometers (242 million miles) from Earth (roughly 2.5 times the Earth-Sun distance), Psyche maintained a stable rate of 6.25 megabits per second.
This highly innovative theory explains the origin of water on Earth
Based on precise isotopic measurements taken in Earth's atmosphere, as well as recent observations of asteroids (notably the results from space missions that approached asteroids like Hayabusa 2 and OSIRIS-REx), a new evolutionary model of the asteroid belt has been developed and tested against terrestrial data.
Materials: more finesse for greater hardness ⚒️ - Techno …
Boron carbide is a material that combines hardness, lightness, and resistance to high temperatures, but it poorly withstands shocks. Scientists at the CNRS have developed a new method for synthesizing this material as a ceramic made of nanocrystals, which exhibits unparalleled hardness and exceptional shock resistance.
