Synthetic Hexagonal Diamond Surpasses Natural Diamonds in Hardness and Stability
Scientists have successfully created a synthetic diamond with a hexagonal lattice, making it harder than natural diamonds. Developed using a process involving high-pressure heating of graphene, this diamond withstands up to 155 GPa and 1,100 degree Celsius, far exceeding the durability of natural diamonds. While unsuitable for jewellery, it holds p...

Bacteria-Based Cellulose Bandage Speeds Up Plant Healing and Growth
A bacteria-based cellulose bandage has been found to enhance plant healing and regeneration. Studies show that wounds treated with these patches heal faster, with over 80 percent recovery in a week compared to less than 20 percent in untreated plants. The cellulose also speeds up root and leaf development in plant cuttings. Researchers attribute th...

NASA’s Curiosity Rover Captures Stunning Feather-Shaped Iridescent Cloud on Mars
A remarkable feather-shaped iridescent cloud was spotted by NASA’s Curiosity rover on Mars. Captured during a seasonal imaging campaign, this phenomenon provides valuable data on Martian weather patterns. Scientists believe such clouds help study particle sizes and atmospheric changes. The cloud, composed of either water ice or carbon dioxide ice...
