How a Brain Molecule Could Halt Multiple Sclerosis

Posted by in categories: biotech/medical, neuroscience

Summary: Injecting the brain molecule into mouse models of multiple sclerosis increased the number of oligodendrocytes. The findings suggest fractalkine may help to slow the progression, or potentially halt multiple sclerosis.

Rotating Detonation Rocket Engine: NASA’s Revolutionary Propulsion Design for Deep Space Missions

Posted by in category: space travel

NASA takes its first steps toward establishing a long-term presence on the Moon’s surface, a team of propulsion development engineers at NASA have developed and tested NASA’s first full-scale rotating detonation rocket engine, or RDRE, an advanced rocket engine design that could significantly change how future propulsion systems are built.

The RDRE differs from a traditional rocket engine by generating thrust using a supersonic combustion phenomenon known as a detonation. This design produces more power while using less fuel than today’s propulsion systems and has the potential to power both human landers and interplanetary vehicles to deep space destinations, such as the Moon and Mars.

Toroidal propellers: A noise-killing game changer in air and water

Posted by in categories: innovation, transportation

It’s rare to hear a new invention that has this much impact potential and doesn’t really need any more work to go commercial.


These strangely-shaped twisted-toroid propellers look like a revolutionary (sorry) advance for the aviation and marine sectors. Radically quieter than traditional propellers in both air and water, they’re also showing some huge efficiency gains.
