Originally Brontosaurus excelsus, this “Deceptive Lizard” was discovered & described in 1879 in Colorado by Othniel Charles Marsh. It was named such because Marsh thought its lower tail bones to be very similar to a mosasaur, and was thus nearly decieved. Apatosaurus lived during the Late Jurassic Period about 154 to 1...
A new kind of metal could make nuclear power plants more robust by resisting the damage that radiation does to traditional steel. When neutrons from nuclear cores smack into surrounding structures, they can knock atoms out of place, which makes steel brittle. This means plants periodically require expensive and time-co...

A sixth grade student I was tutoring this past week commented that he would much rather answer questions that asked “why” than “how.” “Because you can start a ‘why’ answer with the word ‘because,” but I don’t know how to start a ‘how’ answer,” he said. I looked through a 2016 New York State sixth grade exam to find out...

Every day, billions of cells in the human body die. If the body didn’t have a way to replace those cells, we wouldn’t live very long. Why? Consider these cellular life-spans: Liver cells, for example, only live for about a year and a half. For red blood cells, it’s only about four months. We might get two to four weeks...
Biologists say they have solved the riddle of how a tiny bacterium senses light and moves towards it: the entire organism acts like an eyeball. In a single-celled pond slime, they observed how incoming rays are bent by the bug’s spherical surface and focused in a spot on the far side of the cell. By shuffling along in ...

Through painstaking work, scientists have found evidence of a quasiparticle that was first imagined as a hypothesis almost 50 years ago: the odderon. The odderon is a combination of subatomic particles rather than a new fundamental particle – but it does act like the latter in some respects, and the way it fits into th...
In the decades following the 1850s, industrialization of Western Europe saw the use of coal to heat homes and power transportation and manufacturing, spewing huge quantities of black carbon and other dark particles into the atmosphere, the researchers said.
