Pour some water into your glass of ouzo or pastis, and the beverage will change from transparent to milky: this is the well-known 'Ouzo effect'. But what will happen if you simply place a drop of ouzo on a surface and wait? Scientists have studied the phenomena taking place, and distinguish four 'life phases' of the drop, within no more than a quarter of an hour.

Powerful tropical cyclones like the super typhoon that lashed Taiwan with 150-mile-per-hour winds last week and then flooded parts of China are expected to become even stronger as the planet warms. That trend hasn't become evident yet, but it will, scientists say.
Research into amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has led to interesting and unexpected conclusions. When scientists were investigating the relevance of the higher expression of the IP3R2 protein in blood of ALS patients, the general expectation was that lowering the expression of this protein would have a protective effect on the affected motor neurons. But the exact opposite was true: IP3R2 turned out to be a protector against the negative effects of inflammation during ALS. Even more, the same mechanism may also apply to other diseases, such as stroke and multiple sclerosis, say investigators.

The 'Stealth wetsuit' was invented by HECS Aquatic, a concealment technology company based in New Zealand. It allowed a diver to swim up close with sharks (left) and fish (right). The principle is based on a Faraday cage, invented by the scientist Michael Faraday in 1836. Faraday discovered that inside a sphere of conducting material, the electric field balances out to become zero, even in an external electrical field. HECS Aquatic built a conductive carbon fibre grid that attenuates electrical fields into their wetsuit.

The recent emergence of bacterial infections that are resistant to many existing antibiotics is driving an urgent need for tools to quickly identify the small number of therapies that are still effective for individual patients. Currently, multi-drug resistant bacteria often must be sent to specialized laboratories for analysis, leading to several days of delay before results can guide therapy. Now investigators have developed a simple and versatile method using inkjet printing technology to test such bacteria for susceptibility to antibiotics in a clinical setting.

Juno's visible-light camera was turned on six days after Juno fired its main engine and placed itself into orbit around the largest planetary inhabitant of our solar system. The colour image shows atmospheric features on Jupiter, including the famous Great Red Spot, and three of the massive planet's four largest moons -- Io, Europa and Ganymede, from left to right in the image.
Move over Pluto! Astronomers find tiny new dwarf planet on edge of our solar system orbiting up to 11 billion miles from the sun

+Has land use pushed terrestrial biodiversity beyond the planetary boundary? A global assessment
The dwarf planet, found using a telescope at the top of Mauna Kea, Hawaii (shown circled in red, left) has an elliptical 700 year orbit that takes it more than twice the distance of Pluto from the sun (shown in yellow line, right). It comes as close as 3 billion miles (5 billion km) to the sun before heading out twice as far as Neptune, or 11 billion miles (17 billion km)
The team, led by researchers from the Universidad Diego Portales in Santiago, Chile, used the Attacama Large Millimetere Array (Alma) telescope in Chile to study the star (pictured inset). It is in the water snow line that water is vapourised (artist's impression pictured) and small rocky planets like our own are believed to form. Outside the water snow line, the presence of water ice allows the rapid formation of cosmic snowballs, which eventually go on to form massive gaseous planets such as Jupiter.
In addition to objectives for the engine start and run conditions, another primary objective for the test is to continue testing the new engine control system and new engine controller. The first two hot-fire tests in this series are using the last planned engineering model of the controller.
Qualification testing is currently planned to begin in the Fall and continue into early 2017.
The test was planned to last for 650 seconds, with the engine running for 277 seconds at the 109% power level and for 268 seconds at 80%.

4,000mph hypersonic plane that could take passengers from London to Sydney in FOUR HOURS moves closer to takeoff as European Space Agency backs 'revolutionary' Sabre engine
On the Detla IV scenario, a great deal of risk is accepted by launching so many satellites at once. In fact, a customer may be betting their company on a successful launch. The XS-1 scenario is far less risky and allows for a far greater insertion of the satellites into orbital planes.
We’re living in very exciting times in the launch industry, with many new commercial entrants – and for the first time, reusable space plane concepts are starting to be taken seriously, noted Jess Sponable, Program Manager at DARPA/TTO during a video presentation.
According to the presentation, “To facilitate commercialization, DARPA wants to transfer title of the XS-1 vehicle to industry, but industry needs to offer a plan that provides ‘consideration in kind’ justifying transfer of title.”
Actress Kalki Koechlin, who is popular for portraying unconventional roles on the silver screen, says she has no immediate plans to don the director's hat.
