Male Contraceptive Pill Found 99% Effective in Mice, With No Observable Side Effects
A team of scientists said Wednesday they had developed a male oral contraceptive that was 99 percent effective in mice and didn't cause observable side effects, with the drug expected to enter human trials by the end of this year.

Spiders found to extend their hearing by using webs as giant audio arrays
Spider silk carries some amazing capabilities, with its light weight, incredible elasticity and a status as one of nature's strongest materials. Scientists have made another extraordinary discovery in this area, finding that orb-weaving spiders use their webs as an array to extend their sense of hearing, a finding that could lead to advanced new forms of audio hardware.

Due to a series of solar flares, powerful auroras were observed in different parts of the Earth for almost a month.
Nasa recorded one of the largest M-class flares at the end of March.
The result is on the video from the Kola Peninsula, Russia

Boston Dynamics’ robot dog Spot has been tasked with a new job - patrolling the ancient ruins of Pompeii. The robot will be used to inspect the site for safety issues and record structural changes over time to better manage the historic ruins.
One specific focus for Spot will be to investigate the safety of a number of tunnels used by thieves to raid Pompeii.

Two of our biggest environmental problems are the tons of unusable plastic waste, and the tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) which are released into the atmosphere in smokestack emissions. A new process is claimed to use the former to trap the latter.
The procedure begins with plastic waste being ground into a powder, after which it's mixed with potassium acetate – that's the unique part – and then heated at 600 ºC (1,112 ºF) for 45 minutes. Doing so renders the plastic powder into sorbent particles filled with nanoscale pores, which are very effective at trapping airborne carbon dioxide molecules.
