Last week, NASA announced it canceled its plans to send the Volatiles Investigating Polar Exploration Rover (VIPER) to the Moon’s southern polar region. The rover was meant to search for water and other resources called volatiles, such as hydrogen, ammonia and carbon dioxide, which easily evaporate in warm temperatures.Nicola Fox, associate administrator of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate, reiterated the agency’s commitment “to exploring the Moon for the benefit of humanity” through other missions.
Heart care experts at Hackensack Meridian Jersey Shore University Medical Center are now providing patients with the AGENTTM Drug-Coated Balloon (DCB), designed to treat coronary in-stent restenosis (ISR) in patients with coronary artery disease.
The reactivity of zirconium on silicon nitride enhances the conversion of propane into propylene, a key commodity chemical needed to make polypropylene. This finding hints at the reactivity researchers might achieve with other nontraditional catalysts.
A 10-year, $40 million federal investment in plasma science and engineering (PSE) efforts in Alabama managed at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) has produced tangible results that are very encouraging, according to Dr. Sandra Richardson, the section head for the Research Capacity and Competitiveness Section in the Office of Integrative Activities at the U.
