China is the world’s largest producer of cement, steel and other building materials, whose manufacture emits huge amounts of carbon dioxide. But an analysis now suggests that powering heavy industries with hydrogen could be a cost-effective way to reduce China’s carbon emissions — and its contribution to climate change1.

The Moon formed only in a matter of hours following the collision between Earth and Theia, a space object the size of Mars, according to a new simulation put forth by a novel study. Most theories in the past claim our Moon formed from the debris of this heavenly collision, floating in orbit for over

A cold front has been forecasted to hit the Northeast US region later this week, with temperatures similar to November weather or during the last phase of the current fall season. The front will come after a temporary warm weather will cover the region following a week-long Nor’easter. Northeast Cold Front (Photo : Photo by

But firearm injury is among the least researched and worst funded of the top causes of mortality in the United States, as shown by the outlier point in this
Chemists found a clue to the chemistry of the early Earth, which might open doors to accelerating chemical synthesis for drug development. Scientists found a mechanism for the peptide-forming processes in water that result in proteins and, ultimately, life on Earth.
