Mimicking Insects to Avoid Sinking Using Surface Tension
A new robot made of ultralight carbon-fiber can stand or slowly walk on water. The principle it uses is borrowed from insects -- surface tension tends to prevent the water's surface from breaking, ... > more -
Acoustical Oceanographers Record Noises in the Deep
Manmade and natural sounds, from boat engines to rainfall, sound different below the sea surface. To study their impact of noise on marine life, scientists are submerging devices called Passive ... > more -

Young Inventors' Firefighting Robots Are More than Just Fun Toys
At an international high-school contest based in Connecticut, students compete with their home-made robots. The goal for the robots is to navigate a maze, find a fire, and put it out in the shortest ... > more -
Engineers Create Exhibits on Achievements, Promise
Nanotechnology has already brought advances such as self-cleaning windows and energy-efficient LED lighting, and could soon deliver medical breakthroughs. To educate the public about nanotechnology's ... > more -
Physicists Show "Antigravity" Mystery Spots Are Optical Illusions
At several hilly locations around the U.S., know as "gravity hills," objects such as cars left on neutral supposedly roll uphill, driven by unknown forces and against the force of gravity. Physicists ... > more
