Reproduce of a structure of five rings

A team of scientists has shaped and reproduced the structure of 5-membered ring as small as possible, about 100,000 times thinner than a human hair. A collaboration between the Royal Society of Chemistry, University of Warwick, both in the UK, and IBM Research - Zurich (Switzerland), has allowed researchers to give life to a single molecule in an image, using a combination of synthetic chemistry intelligent, and imaging techniques.

Good omens in the search for antique life on Mars

Structure in the meteorite ALH 84001.The tiny piece of carbon found in meteorites from Mars were formed by the cooling of volcanic emission, were not left there by ancient space germs. This is good news and bad news for astrobiologists.

The discovery in 1996 of carbonate structures in the meteorite ALH 84001, which traveled from Mars to Earth 13,000 years ago, was hailed at the time as evidence that extraterrestrial microbes have ever lived on the Red Planet. However, further studies of both the carbonate structures as tiny bits of macromolecular carbon (MMC) in the meteorite cast doubt on those claims.

Inner symphony of the Earth

Internal Structure of the Earth. Thanks to the seismically, we know how to be the interior of our planet, the core at its center, consists especially of iron possibly solid, liquid outer core would, and then the mantle would happen a thin crust.

Fascinating structure of a typhoon seen and photographed from space by the crew of the Space Shuttle. In this extraordinary image of an event in Earth's atmosphere as comparable to that of a galaxy, Typhoon Odessa shows his eye despite being scary, fascinating.
