Climate change and its effects on air travel
Turbulence in flight increases rapidly with change in climate and also increases a risk of injury or anxiety. Fuel and maintenance costs for carriers could get raised. The increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has chances to cause the change in the jet stream which might lead to a spike […]
Brain cell therapy results in Parkinson’s disease

Earth 2.0: Does TRAPPIST-1 host another “Earth”
Here’s the biggest discovery of the century – a dim star system, consisting of seven Earth-sized planets, called “TRAPPIST-1”. In the most recent celestial breakthrough, scientists have stumbled upon seven tightly-packed Earth-sized planets, orbiting around a muted star called TRAPPIST-1. The number of planets and the intensity of radiation the planets are receiving from their […]
