Air travel produces around 2.5 percent of all global CO 2 emissions, and despite decades of effort in developing alternative fuels or more efficient aircraft designs, that number hasn't budged much.

In 1928 the physicist Paul Dirac proposed that every particle of matter should have an antimatter counterpart. But shortly after the big bang, most of the antimatter disappeared, leaving behind the ...

Inspired by embryos, these disk-shaped robots use magnets, motors, and light to shift between rigid and fluid states. The result? A self-healing, shape-shifting system that could change how we build ...
