Engineers invent octopus-inspired technology that can deceive and signal

Engineers invent octopus-inspired technology that can deceive and signal

With a split-second muscle contraction‚ the greater blue-ringed octopus can change the size and color of the namesake patterns on its skin for purposes of deception‚ camouflage and signaling. Researchers at the University of California‚ Irvine have drawn inspiration from this natural wonder to develop a technological platform with similar capabilities for use in a variety of fields‚ including the military‚ medicine‚ robotics and sustainable energy.

Size and shape of inhaled asbestos nanofibers may be exclusively responsible for pulmonary fibrosis

Size and shape of inhaled asbestos nanofibers may be exclusively responsible for pulmonary fibrosis

The pathogenic potential of inhaling the inert fibrous nanomaterials used in thermal insulation (such as asbestos or fiberglass) is actually connected not to their chemical composition‚ but instead to their geometrical characteristics and size. The reason for this is the inability of the macrophages naturally present in pulmonary alveolar tissue to eliminate foreign bodies that are too large.

Mysterious missing component in the clouds of Venus revealed

Mysterious missing component in the clouds of Venus revealed

What are the clouds of Venus made of? Scientists know it's mainly made of sulfuric acid droplets‚ with some water‚ chlorine‚ and iron. Their concentrations vary with height in the thick and hostile Venusian atmosphere. But until now they have been unable to identify the missing component that would explain the clouds' patches and streaks‚ only visible in the UV range.
