Scientists Develop Self-Healing Stretchable Lithium Batteries With Enhanced Durability
The expert team of scientists from the University of California, Berkeley, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology has developed the super-stretchable and highly flexible lithium battery, crafted with non-toxic components. These jelly-like batteries will be safe from punctures or potential toxic d...

New Theory Suggests Gravitational Waves Could Solve Black Hole Information Paradox
A new study proposes a potential solution to the long-standing black hole information paradox, suggesting that black holes might leak information through gravitational waves. Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have explored how quantum nonlocality could connect the interior of a black hole with its exterior. This connection would...

Scientists Aim to Peer Into Oldest of Star-Forming Galaxies in New Project
A new project by the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) aim sat peering into the most elusive galaxies in the universe. This is likely to help astronomers paint a clearer and more comprehensive picture of the universe's history of star formation. The instrument will also help detect those galaxies that are too dim and are obscured by cosm...

This Bipedal Robot Can Walk, Fly, or Even Ride a Skateboard
A team of researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have come up with a bipedal robot that performs the twin function of walking and flying. Named Leonardo, the part-walking robot, part-flying drone is built in such a way that it can balance itself on a slackline, hop around, or even ride a skateboard.

Astronomers Say Unseen Planet Nine Could Be Brighter, Closer, and Easier To Find
Scientists have long argued there could be a Planet Nine but a definite evidence is yet to be found. Critics assert that finding the planet is unrealistic. A new study by the US-based California Institute of Technology (Caltech) says if the planet is out there, it could be brighter, closer, and easier to find than previously thought.
