Autonomous EHang eVTOL jumpstarts nascent pilotless air tourism industry
Posted by ArielTechGeek 1 hour 34 minutes ago (https://newatlas.com)
Scientists have developed the most precise and accurate atomic clock to date – if you ran it for twice the current age of the universe, it would only be off by one second. This could not only improve services like GPS, but help scientists probe how gravity warps the flow of time across submillimeter distances.Continue ReadingCategory: Physics, ScienceTags: Atoms, Time, Clock, NIST, JILA, Gravity
Sleep studies simplified: Gold-standard results with far less wiring
Posted by ArielTechGeek 5 hours ago (https://newatlas.com)
Sleep studies, or polysomnography (PSG), are an important diagnostic tool used to identify sleep disorders such as sleep apnea, chronic insomnia, and narcolepsy. But anyone who’s undergone a sleep study knows how ‘unnatural’ they are.

Hippos get airborne at top speed, and we've somehow only just found out
Posted by ArielTechGeek 17 hours ago (https://newatlas.com)
For the first time, scientists have discovered that hippos get significant airtime when they're at full-trot, able to lift their enormous bodies off the ground for around 15% of their stride. It's unique among mammals their size, with both elephants and rhinoceros staying grounded at speed.Continue ReadingCategory: Biology, ScienceTags: Animal science, Flight, Running, Royal Veterinary College
