An international team of astronomers reports the detection of a new extremely metal-poor star using the Gemini High-resolution Optical SpecTrograph (GHOST) at the Gemini South telescope in Chile. The finding was presented ...
Extraterrestrial mining and metal processing are key strategies for space exploration. In a new study in Scientific Reports, Rodolfo Marin Rivera, and a team of scientists in materials science, conducted catalytic dissolution ...
Two teams of economists have conducted economic assessments of mining asteroids—one of them is a trio with one member each from the University of Tor Rome Vergata, the University of Maryland and Middlebury College. They ...
For nearly 40 years, materials called 'strange metals' have flummoxed quantum physicists, defying explanation by operating outside the normal rules of electricity.
