MIT physicists have synthesized a new family of bulk crystals whose electrons behave as though they move in an effectively four-dimensional “superspace,” rather than being fully described by the three ...

Chimpanzees showed a remarkable attraction to crystals, choosing them over ordinary stones and studying them with intense ...

For more than two decades, the International Space Station has provided a platform for growing and studying protein crystals. In the early days of microgravity research, scientists discovered that ...

A dissipative time crystal is a phase of matter characterized by periodic oscillations over time, while a system is dissipating energy. In contrast with conventional time crystals, which can also ...

Redwire’s space biotech capabilities are creating valuable opportunities for the biopharma industry as microgravity allows for outcomes that aren’t possible on Earth, including bioprinting materials ...
