Scientists are getting closer to unlocking the secrets of oxygenation of the Earth's biosphere -its oceans and atmosphere - with new research shows that shows that organisms like vascular plants may have appeared and evolved under lower oxygen conditions than...  |
China has unveiled Tianlai, or "Sound of Heaven," a project to listen to radio emissions from deep space that may reveal the nature of dark energy. Although not directly observable, dark energy "can be studied by observing the expansion rate... Provided by The Daily Galaxy  |
