New Horizons Is So Far From Earth, It Shows Us How Stars Look Different Out There
In July 2015, the New Horizons spacecraft made history when it became the first robotic explorer to conduct a flyby of Pluto. This was followed by another first, when the NASA mission conducted the first flyby of a Kuiper Belt Object (KBO) on 3

Curiosity Just Sent a Photo of Earth And Venus Like We've Never Seen Before
Curiosity has been through some challenges. A two-year mission that's now almost eight years and counting, storm seasons, getting covered in dust... and yet the rover is still rolling around the Red Planet and making amazing discoveries.

Here's Why You're Fooled by This Classic Visual Illusion, Study Reveals
It's a mystery that's eluded scientists for over 100 years - why do two identically coloured shapes look different when they're placed on a gradient background? Just take a look at the image above: the two circles are the same colour.

Tissue engineering moves closer to 3D printing inside the body.
Tissue engineering is an emerging field in which cells, biomaterials and biotechnologies are employed to replace or regenerate damaged or diseased tissues. Currently, this is achieved by generating a biomaterial scaffold outside of the body, maturation in a bioreactor and then surgically implanting the created tissue into the patient. This surgery, however, poses the added risk of infection, increases recovery time and may even negate the therapeutic benefits of the implant.
To prevent such complications, a US research team is developing a way to fabricate 3D tissue scaffolds inside a living patient – so-called intracorporeal tissue engineering.

European physicists boldly take small step toward 100-kilometer-long atom smasher.
CERN’s governing council announced it will launch a technical and financial feasibility study to build an even bigger collider 80 to 100 kilometers long (actually two of them in succession) that could ultimately reach an energy seven times higher than the LHC. The first machine wouldn’t be built before 2040.

Autoimmune Experiments Switch Immune Cells From Attacking The Body to Protecting It
For most of us, the immune system works to protect us from bacteria, viruses, and other harmful pathogens. But for people with autoimmune conditions, the body's white blood cells instead perceive other cells and tissues in the body to be a threat
