Boiling liquid does something in near-zero gravity even scientists didn't see coming
(Stanislaw Pytel/Stone/Getty Images) Out in deep, dark depths of space, electronics and fuel can still get hot – very hot. As plans are made for longer missions and more advanced tech systems, one of ...

Scientists expected boiling liquid in space to cool less, but tests found the opposite — to a point
The findings carry extra weight because cryogenic liquids are essential to long-duration spaceflight.
Liquid nitrogen is a cryogenic liquid. They’re liquefied gases that can only stay liquid at extremely low temperatures. For example, liquid nitrogen boils at (minus) -196°C (-320° F). That makes it ...
What just happened? IBM's concept nanosheet transistor demonstrated nearly double the performance improvement at the boiling point of nitrogen. This achievement is expected to result in several ...
