Over 400 archival items illuminating China's journey to become a global force in airborne remote sensing are going on public display in Beijing, showcasing four decades of innovation spearheaded by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). The month-long exhibition, organized by the CAS Aerospace Information Research Institute, opened on Tuesday at the CAS Beijing new technology base.
A groundbreaking 3D printing system developed by Chinese scientists has explored using only on-site-sourced lunar soil to build habitats, paving the way for the large-scale, on-site construction of lunar research stations. The Deep Space Exploration Laboratory in Hefei, Anhui Province, has successfully prototyped a lunar regolith 3D printer that eliminates the need for Earth-sourced construction materials, according to Yang Honglun, a senior engineer at the lab.
China will officially launch the International Deep Space Exploration Association (IDSEA) next Monday, with a particular aim of empowering other developing countries in developing deep-space technologies.
China's Einstein Probe (EP) satellite has detected a previously unknown type of cosmic explosion involving faint and fast X-ray transients that occur during the death of massive stars. The discovery, published in the latest issue of the journal Nature Astronomy, challenges existing theories of stellar collapse and reveals a hidden class of stellar explosions.
Researchers at the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, have successfully developed a novel radical self-assembled molecular material. This innovation overcomes both the inadequate performance and the difficulty of uniformly fabricating large-area hole-transport layers in perovskite solar cells. The technology has been efficiency-certified by the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory.
How do animals living on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau coexist and adapt in such an extreme environment? Chinese scientists have uncovered distinct synergies between diet and gut microbes that support the ecological adaptation and coexistence of species on "the roof of the world." This study offers a brand-new perspective into the relationship between the gut microbiota and large herbivores' environmental adaptation and ecological niche differentiation, according to the Northwest Institute of Plateau Biology (NWIPB), under the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
