MIT Just Proved Einstein Wrong in the Famous Double-Slit Quantum Experiment
MIT scientists have conducted the most precise version of the double-slit quantum experiment using ultracold atoms. The findings support Bohr’s Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics and challenge Einstein’s belief in deterministic realism. The experiment offers robust evidence for quantum indeterminacy and reinforces Bell’s theorem, ...

Algae-Grown Bioplastic Passes Mars Pressure Test, Boosting Hopes for Red Planet Habitats
Scientists have successfully grown algae in bioplastic chambers under Mars-like conditions, marking a step toward sustainable habitats for astronauts. The chambers, made from polylactic acid, supported photosynthesis and stabilized liquid water. This breakthrough suggests self-replicating biomaterials could reduce Earth-based resupply, advancing lo...

NASA Crew-11 Astronauts Begin Pre-Launch Quarantine Ahead of July 2025 Flight
NASA’s Crew-11 astronauts have entered the final stage before launch: a two-week quarantine designed to prevent illness before their mission to the ISS. Led by commander Zena Cardman, the four-person team also includes Nick Hague, Thomas Pesquet (ESA), and Alexander Grebenkin (Roscosmos). The team will launch no earlier than July 31 from Kennedy ...

Ax-4 Astronauts to Return from ISS with 580 Pounds of Science Cargo
NASA’s Ax-4 mission is set to return to Earth on July 14 after two and a half weeks aboard the International Space Station. The four-member crew, led by Peggy Whitson, includes the first astronauts from India, Poland, and Hungary. They completed over 60 science experiments ranging from algae-based life support to wearable nanomaterials. Expeditio...

Crystalline Ice Discovered in Space: New Study Reveals Hidden Order in Cosmic Ice
A groundbreaking study from University College London and the University of Cambridge reveals that water ice in space, long believed to be completely amorphous due to extreme cold, may actually contain up to 25% crystalline structure. Simulations and X-ray diffraction experiments confirm the presence of nanocrystals in so-called low-density amorpho...
