Glass you can build with: Metallic glass that's stronger and lasts longer

(鶹ԺOrg.com) -- The normal structure of metals is crystalline. Glass, on the other hand, is amorphous. But it's possible to make amorphous forms of metal, metallic glasses, which can be remarkably strong, having many properties ...

New theory proposes Jovian magnetosphere circulates magnetic field remarkably different from that of Earth

Space physicists have long assumed that the magnetosphere at Jupiter circulates that planet's magnetic field in the same way as Earth. At Earth, this circulation drives the aurora and the magnetic storms that cause space ...
