Read MoreCan life from Earth survive on a planet like Mars?
Some microbes on Earth could temporarily survive on the surface of Mars, new study finds. As the Perseverance rover hunts for evidence of past life on Mars’ barren surface, researchers back on Earth are exploring just how difficult it might be for living organisms to survive there today. Findings published in the journal ‘Frontiers in […]
Read MoreParticle physics milestone achieved at CERN
After 50 years of research, physicists have found evidence that the elusive subatomic quasiparticle called odderon actually exists. For most of us, physics terms like odderon are (and always will be) part of science fiction. However, this is not the view of the scientific community, whose determined members spent almost half a century searching (without […]

Read MoreScientists solve mysteries of the world’s oldest computer
Another piece of the ancient computer’s puzzle has been solved. The 2 000-year-old Antikythera Mechanism, the first analogue computer, was a bronze hand-powered device from ancient Greece filled with complex gears. It was used to predict the positions of the planets and events like lunar and solar eclipses. The machine was even used to set […]
Read MoreThe UAL participates in a new project: PRODIGIO
The UAL began working on a new European project in January this year, PRODIGIO. The university will be immersed for the next three years in order to give a boost to the production of microalgae on an industrial scale. A group of researchers from the UAL intends to give visibility to this production, such as […]
Read MoreCommission launches open access publishing platform for scientific papers
The European Commission today launched Open Research Europe, a freely accessible platform for publishing scientific papers. The platform will present the results of research funded by Horizon Europe, the EU’s research and innovation programme for 2021-2027, and its predecessor, Horizon 2020. Open Research Europe will provide free access to the latest scientific findings for researchers […]
