When temperatures soar, so do heart attacks. Now, a lab experiment explains just how temperatures climbing into Fahrenheit’s three-digits can cause ischemia and potential heart attacks, all while ...

Nearly 4,000 m beneath the Pacific, in water so dark that sunlight has never penetrated, scientists have stumbled on a new ...

In a recent study published in Science Advances, a team of researchers led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) discuss how MOXIE (Mars Oxygen In Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) ...

(CNN) — The first experiment to produce oxygen on another planet has come to an end on Mars after exceeding NASA’s initial goals and demonstrating capabilities that could help future astronauts ...

On the red and dusty surface of Mars, nearly 100 million miles from Earth, an instrument the size of a lunchbox is proving it can reliably do the work of a small tree. The MIT-led Mars Oxygen In-Situ ...

In February 2021, when NASA's car-sized Perseverance rover touched down on Mars to global fanfare, a modest golden box named MOXIE landed too. Strapped into the life-detecting Perseverance, this ...

MOXIE is the first experiment to suck in the planet's thin, carbon dioxide-laden air and transform that native resource into oxygen. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

For the first time, researchers have shown that reduced oxygen intake, or "oxygen restriction", is associated with longer lifespan in lab mice, highlighting its anti-aging potential. Robert Rogers of ...

Humble oxygen is more than just a building block of life. The element could also help scientists sneak a peek into the innards of planets orbiting faraway stars, a new study suggests. Laboratory ...

The MOXIE experiment has now produced oxygen on Mars. It is the first demonstration of in-situ resource utilization on the Red Planet, and a key step in the goal of sending humans on a Martian mission ...
