Multitasking runners can read on a treadmill using new system Posted: 15 Apr 2013 02:23 PM PDT A new innovation allows treadmill users to work their bodies and brains at the same time. The system, called ReadingMate, adjusts text on a monitor to counteract the bobbing motion of a runner's head so that the text appears still.

Titan's methane: Going, going, soon to be gone? Posted: 15 Apr 2013 01:41 PM PDT By tracking a part of the surface of Saturn's moon Titan over several years, NASA's Cassini mission has found a remarkable longevity to the hydrocarbon lakes on the moon's surface.

Photons run out of loopholes: Quantum world really is in conflict with our everyday experience Posted: 15 Apr 2013 09:49 AM PDT Physicists have carried out an experiment with photons in which they have closed an important loophole. The researchers have thus provided the most complete experimental proof that the quantum world is in conflict with our everyday experience.

Engineers craft new material for high-performing 'supercapacitors Posted: 15 Apr 2013 09:48 AM PDT Taking a significant step toward improving the power delivery of systems ranging from urban electrical grids to regenerative braking in hybrid vehicles, researchers have synthesized a material that shows high capability for both the rapid storage and release of energy.

Where are the best windows into Europa's interior? Posted: 15 Apr 2013 09:34 AM PDT The surface of Jupiter's moon Europa exposes material churned up from inside the moon and also material resulting from matter and energy coming from above. If you want to learn about the deep saltwater ocean beneath this unusual world's icy shell -- as many people do who are interested in possible extraterrestrial life -- you might target your investigation of the surface somewhere that has more of the up-from-below stuff and less of the down-from-above stuff.

Update: Comet to make close flyby of Red Planet in October 2014 Posted: 15 Apr 2013 09:32 AM PDT New observations of comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring) have allowed NASA's Near-Earth Object Office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. to further refine the comet's orbit.

Color of OLEDs can now at last be predicted thanks to new modeling technique Posted: 15 Apr 2013 06:48 AM PDT OLEDs can be made more efficiently and at lower cost by a better understanding of the electronic processes.

The Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident: Two years on, the fallout continues Posted: 15 Apr 2013 06:48 AM PDT More than two years after the earthquake and tsunami that devastated parts of Japan, scientists are still trying to quantify the extent of the damage.

World's first microfluidic device for rapid separation and detection of non-spherical bioparticles Posted: 15 Apr 2013 06:44 AM PDT A bioengineering research team has developed a novel microfluidic device for efficient, rapid separation and detection of non-spherical bioparticles.
