SINGAPORE, June 21 — A 65-year-old retiree was reportedly hospitalised after spalling concrete from the ceiling of his Housing and Development Board (HDB) flat collapsed at about 4.30am on Thursday.

Optical Illusion: We are back with another puzzle, that is all about spotting the differences! Take a look at the picture given below- it has two images. Both the images are the same- a family ...

Cracks in concrete compromise structural integrity by exposing steel reinforcement to corrosion agents, shortening its service life. Fungal-induced calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitation via urea ...

Optical Illusion: Where are all the beach lovers? Our today's illusion will take our participants to a rather crowded beach- for a fun solve! No, we are not actually going to the beach, but it's more ...

Aston University researchers have developed a new class of optical microresonators, miniature optical devices that strongly confine and enhance light in microscopic dimensions. They are essential ...

We use super-resolution bright-field optical microscopy of lateral resolution ~ 120 nm to measure the filopodium dynamics of lung cancer cells. The effects of epidermal growth factor on filopodium ...

The view of our home galaxy lit up the night sky at the U.S. National Science Foundation's Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona.

Cellular-resolution optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a powerful tool offering noninvasive histology-like imaging. However, like other optical microscopy tools, a high numerical aperture (N.A.) ...

The telescope worked by reflecting light from a mirror down a 200-foot-long (61 m) concrete optical tunnel. In 2017, the telescope was decommissioned, after decades of serving the scientific ...

These glow-in-the-dark axolotls can regrow lost limbs — and scientists say studying them could eventually help humans do the same.
