Metamaterial Breaks Thermal Symmetry, Enables One-Way Heat Emission
Scientists have created a groundbreaking metamaterial that breaks Kirchhoff’s law by emitting 43% more mid-infrared radiation in one direction than it absorbs. Built from layered InGaAs and tested at 512°F with a 5T magnetic field, the structure exhibits record thermal nonreciprocity. This breakthrough enables controlled one-way heat flow, a ste...

Climate Satellite MethaneSAT Fails After Just One Year in Orbit
MethaneSAT, a climate-monitoring satellite backed by Google and the Bezos Earth Fund, has failed after just one year in orbit. Launched in March 2024 to track methane leaks, the $88 million satellite lost power in June 2025. Though unrecoverable, mission operators will continue analyzing the collected data to support climate action and emission tra...
