Ordinary passenger jets flying over the poles while scattering sun-reflecting particles into the stratosphere might already be our best and most affordable tool for slowing an overheating planet
14+ hour, 57+ min ago (693+ words) Passenger jets flying over the poles while scattering sun-reflecting particles into the stratosphere may already be our most affordable tool for cooling an overheating planet. For years, the leading plan for seeding the stratosphere with sun-reflecting particles rested on a…...
Hurricanes pose a growing threat to coastal wind farms, yet earthquake sensors buried along the Louisiana shoreline secretly captured turbulence
16+ hour, 57+ min ago (606+ words) In 2021, a hurricane-hunting research aircraft plummeted more than 1,600 feet without warning. Caught in a violent atmospheric downdraft, heavy gear slammed against the cabin ceiling while crew members clung to their seats. It was a terrifying reminder of why the ocean-adjacent…...
USDA awards Cornell $7.5 million to develop autonomous orchard robots for apple and cherry farming operations
22+ hour, 26+ min ago (504+ words) The USDA’s Specialty Crop Research Initiative put up this money as part of a broader effort to tackle labor shortages and rising costs in specialty crop farming. The funding creates a new Center of Excellence for Orchard Robotics at Cornell…...
IAEA launches ATLAS maritime nuclear program as MARAD, Core Power, and Newcleo announce parallel initiatives
1+ day, 15+ hour ago (531+ words) On August 26–27, the International Atomic Energy Agency gathered energy ministers, industry leaders, and government officials in Washington, D.C., to formally launch ATLAS—the Atomic Technologies Licensed for Applications at Sea program. Already backed by 25 countries, the initiative is designed to…...
Oceans are growing a lot more algae than they used to, and a sweeping new study of 1.2 million satellite images just revealed the full scale of a transformation that began reshaping marine ecosystems around 2008
3+ day, 14+ hour ago (716+ words) Oceans are growing far more algae than before — and a sweeping new study reveals the full scale of a transformation reshaping marine ecosystems Stretches of open ocean that once ran clear to the horizon are increasingly blanketed by floating mats…...
Cornell's snail-inspired Mollusca robot filters microplastics from water as NY teachers bring the technology into K-12 classrooms
3+ day, 17+ hour ago (524+ words) In late July 2026, 43 New York state schoolteachers gathered in a conference room at Cornell’s Upson Hall, staring at piles of wires, circuit boards, and 3D-printed parts. Their task: assemble a small aquatic robot modeled on the locomotion of a snail....
Swiss researchers built a living battery made of fungi that feeds on sugar and dissolves itself when the job is done, and it can already power a sensor for days just by harnessing the natural metabolism of two complementary fungal species printed alive into biodegradable ink
3+ day, 20+ hour ago (704+ words) Swiss researchers built a living battery made of fungi that feeds on sugar and dissolves itself when the job is done — already powering sensors for days. Most batteries are rigid, toxic, and destined for a landfill. They’re charged, depleted, and…...
Scientists listened for porpoises inside a tidal-energy zone and discovered the tide itself can bury their clicks beneath 29 decibels of underwater noise
4+ day, 57+ min ago (568+ words) Tracking marine mammal echolocation clicks is complex due to noise in tidal energy zones. Global offshore renewable projects are rapidly expanding to meet increasing clean power demand. A technology rising in popularity is underwater turbines harnessing the energy from tides....
A solar cell bent 5,000 times around a curve tighter than a thumb kept 91 percent of what it started with, while the flexible tandem inside it reached 33.6 percent certified efficiency on a silicon layer thin enough to roll
4+ day, 18+ hour ago (829+ words) The jig takes both ends of the strip, folds it toward itself, holds it, and lets go. Then it does it again. It ran that way for days, and the film in the clamps looks like nothing at all. Not…...
Stanford chemists turned ordinary rocks into carbon-trapping materials that work thousands of times faster than nature by borrowing a trick from centuries-old cement-making and the results could reshape how humanity fights climate change
4+ day, 20+ hour ago (463+ words) Pulling billions of tons of CO2 out of the atmosphere is one of the hardest things humanity has ever attempted. The technologies built for it — giant fan systems, experimental ocean interventions — are expensive, energy-intensive, and still nowhere near the scale the…...
