DARPA funded researchers have developed a new type of expandable foam that can stop internal bleeding long enough to get the soldier off the battlefield and into surgery. The foam chemical is injected into the chest as two separate chemicals. When the chemicals come into contact with each other, they expand, molding itself around internal…

New contact lens technology allows for heads-up display (HUD) for wearers
According to the Telegraph, Ghent University’s center of microsystems technology has developed a spherical curved LCD display which can be embedded in contact lenses and handle projected images using wireless technology. The technology allows the entire surface of the contact lens to be used for the display giving the wearer a true heads-up display (HUD).
New fiber-optical thread doubles as solar power generator
An international team of scientists have created the first fiber-optic solar cell that is thinner than a strand of human hair, flexible, and produces electricity using the same principles as a a flat-panel solar cell. They are hoping to provide the capability to weave the new fiber-optic thread into into fabrics of clothing to produce…

NASA announces new evidence for water ice at Mercury’s poles
Scientist have long speculated that ice existed on the planet Mercury. Radio waves bounced off the planet decades ago indicated many bright spots on the planet’s surface. Scientist were reluctant to conclude that the white areas were ice though. The white reflection could have been silicate, sulfur, or other highly-reflective substances. Today, a new analysis…
Monster storm rages on Saturn inside strange hexagon-shaped cloud system [PICTURES]
On November 27, 2012, NASA’s Cassini spacecraft captured this amazing image of a monster storm raging at Saturn’s north pole. Viewed from 361,000 kilometers away, the storm’s sinister eye looks quite similar to Earth-based hurricanes leading scientists to surmise that the ringed planet’s storms form in much the same way, with warm, moist air rising…
Researchers discover clue as to why a black hole’s mass is lighter than expected
If you have ever wondered why, against conventional logic, black holes are so “light”, researchers at Virginia Tech may be about to quench your thirst for an answer. Computer models of the early universe fall fairly close to home except for one thing – the ratio of the mass of black holes in the center…
Lead-proton collision at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider may have yielded a new form of matter
Researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are reporting an unusual finding in collisions between protons and lead ions – their observations suggest that the collisions may have produced a new form of matter known as color-glass condensate. Normally when these collisions between particles occur they yield hundreds of new particles which fly away from…
Can you crack the secret encrypted WWII message found attached to the leg of carrier pigeon skeleton
Top British codebreakers are admitting that the recently found World War II message, found attached to the skeleton of a carrier pigeon, may never be cracked. Historians believe the bird was dispatched from Nazi-occupied France on June 6 1944, during the D-Day invasions. It is possible that its destination was the top secret Bletchley Park…
SpaceX founder solidifying plans to start civilian colony of 80,000 people on Mars
Not content with simply blasting civilians into the stratosphere, Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of the private spaceflight company SpaceX, is now aiming his sights towards starting a Mars colony of up to 80,000 people. Once the infrastructure is in place, Musk intends to ferry people to Mars at a cost of $500,000 per…
