Home Green Marine New report sheds light on hydrogen and wind-assisted propulsion September 6, 2024, by Aida Čučuk The ABS-led consortium, which includes CE Delft and Arcsilea, has delivered a 360-degree analysis of hydrogen as a marine fuel and wind-assisted propulsion as the latest in a series of reports studying alternative fuels and decarbonization technologies
In a paper published in the journal Nature Geoscience, scientists offer a new explanation for a string of severe environmental crises, called oceanic anoxic events, which happened between 185 and 85 million years ago (Mesozoic era); these occurred when the seas became critically depleted of dissolved oxygen. Oceanic anoxic events are geologically abrupt phases of

Around a fifth of U.K. citizens believe Earth has been visited by extraterrestrials, and an estimated 7% believe that they have seen a UFO. The figures are even higher in the U.S. — and rising. The number of people who believe UFO sightings offer likely proof of alien life increased from 20% in 1996 to

Jupiter’s moon Ganymede has an ancient impact structure called a furrow system. This system is the largest impact structure in the outer Solar System, and the impact should have significantly affected Ganymede’s early history. Distribution of furrows and location of the center of the furrow system shown in the hemisphere that always faces away from
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have captured an amazing photo of the lens-shaped spiral galaxy IC 4709. IC 4709’s swirling disk filled with stars and dust bands is beautifully captured by Hubble, as is the faint halo surrounding it. The color image is made up of observations from Hubble’s Advanced Camera for Surveys
