In this tutorial, we use GlowScript VPython to build a dipole electric field simulation step by step. Learn how to model charges, compute field vectors, and create an interactive visualization that ...

For more than a decade, The Metals Company has poured millions of dollars into researching and developing technology for mining seafloors at extreme depths, funding scientific studies to evaluate the ...

The simulation hypothesis—the idea that our universe might be an artificial construct running on some advanced alien computer—has long captured the public imagination. Yet most arguments about it rest ...

An ocean-mining company has funded some of the most comprehensive scientific studies of the deep seabed to date, and peer-reviewed results have begun to emerge. A collage of foraminifera, a kind of ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Despite how it may feel some days, we probably aren’t stuck in a ...

Whereas, the United States of America (the “United States” or “U.S.”) and Japan (together, the “Participants”) intend to support the supply of raw and processed critical minerals and rare earths ...

A new report on the impact of lithium mining in South America’s lithium triangle finds the rush to extract lithium in Chile’s Salar de Atacama has had a severe impact on the area’s water supplies.

What if gravity were informed by the way matter was arranged in the universe — and a sign that we were living in a reality composed by a giant computer? In a new paper published in the journal AIP ...

On March 20, the U.S. government announced a series of executive actions aimed at significantly increasing domestic mineral production. The initiative, known as "Immediate Measures to Increase ...

In the global race for critical minerals, one little-known international agency has long held the keys to a potential motherlode — vast quantities of metals located on the remote seafloor. The ...
