NASA Successfully Tests Drag-Reducing Laminar-Flow Wing in Flight
NASA has successfully flown its 40-inch CATNLF laminar-flow wing model aboard an F-15B aircraft in January 2026. The test confirmed the drag-reducing design performs safely in flight. By maintaining smooth airflow over wings, the technology could improve fuel efficiency by up to 10 percent, lowering airline costs and reducing carbon emissions signi...

NASA Tests New Wing Design That Could Transform Airliner Efficiency
NASA engineers have tested a new laminar-flow wing concept at the Armstrong Flight Research Center by mounting a scaled CATNLF model beneath an F-15B aircraft. During high-speed taxi trials reaching about 144 mph, the design demonstrated potential to keep airflow smooth longer, reducing drag. NASA estimates the technology could cut fuel consumption...

Coffee Waste Could Make Concrete Stronger and Greener, Scientists Find
New research from RMIT University shows that spent coffee grounds can be transformed into biochar and used to replace a portion of sand in concrete, creating a stronger and more sustainable building material. Heating coffee waste at around 350°C without oxygen produces a fine biochar that boosts concrete’s 28-day strength by roughly 30% when use...
