Magnesium still has the potential to become an efficient hydrogen store, says study
It is easy to be optimistic about hydrogen as an ideal fuel. It is much more difficult to come up with a solution to an absolutely fundamental problem: How to store this fuel efficiently? A Swiss-Polish team of experimental and theoretical physicists.....»»
Ants help reveal why sourcing different plants for eco fuels is crucial for biodiversity
Despite being a renewable energy source, the use of biofuel is controversial, as growing few, highly productive crops for fuel can lead to biodiversity loss in the cropping systems where biomass is produced. A cropping system refers to the crops, the.....»»

Solar electric propulsion systems could be just what we need for efficient trips to Mars
There are many different ways to get to Mars, but there are always tradeoffs. Chemical propulsion, proven the most popular, can quickly get a spacecraft to the red planet. But they come at a high cost of bringing their fuel, thereby increasing the mi.....»»
In the Wild West of corporate space travel, humans could return to the moon. But does it bring diplomatic challenges?
When Pittsburgh-based company Astrobiotic Technology launched its fuel-efficient, NASA-backed flight to the moon, hopes were high that it would be the first U.S. moon landing in more than 50 years. But a fuel leak resulted in the company pulling the.....»»
Study shows effects of vegetation composition, warming and nitrogen deposition on peatland carbon sink function
Peatlands, which contain about one-third of the global soil carbon stock, are important carbon sinks. Their net carbon uptake is equivalent to ~1% of human fossil fuel emissions or 3%–10% of the current net sink of natural terrestrial ecosystems. H.....»»
