Can carbon capture save the planet, or is it just another costly distraction? Methods like post-combustion capture and direct air capture aim to reduce atmospheric CO2 levels. However, concerns about cost, energy use, and effectiveness raise questions about its role in fighting climate change.

Reminder of This Year's Theme: Adapt and Change We are midway through British Science Week, so it's a great time to remind you to observe how STEM shapes the world around us. With the rapid development of technology, it is important to know how to adapt
Have you ever wondered how your brain really functions—your thoughts, your memories and how we, humble humans, can achieve the feats we do? Well, wonder no longer, as this article will unveil how memories and emotions are created through phenomena such as active potentials and more
Hydrogen powered cars present a sustainable transport alternative to electric cars. However, there are many questions to be answered: are they more environmentally friendly? Are they economically viable?
Imagine being told that the same useless numbers which you consistently label as redundant in the real world are in fact key to keeping your data safe from prying eyes. Every time someone sends a message, numbers keep your information safe and hidden so only the receiver can see it.
The Rubik’s Cube is far more than a colourful toy—it is a mathematical marvel that embodies the beauty of symmetry, structure, and problem-solving.
The natural world is filled with complex and unpredictable phenomena, from weather patterns to the dynamics of ecosystems and the stock market. At first glance, these systems may seem entirely random, yet there are often underlying deterministic laws governed by mathematics.
Take a deep dive into the growing role of Nanotechnology in Medicine, and learn about the complex technologies being developed.
Discover the latest developments in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths for all levels from the boys of Eton College.

You're receiving this email because you are affiliated with Eton College. (Best viewed on the website) Welcome to Day 2 of British Science Week, and today's main focus is biology. We will observe how biology shapes the world around us, and what crazy things scientists are
Take a brief dive into the microbial populations within our bodies several orders of magnitude larger than that of humans on Earth, and the critical functions these microbes play in our health
No pump? No problem. Wilson’s Airless Gen1 Basketball ditches traditional basketball design for an airless lattice that somehow still bounces. No punctures, no pressure loss, just a $2,500 price tag and a weirdly quiet bounce. Will it replace traditional basketballs? Read more to find out.

Introduction: The human anatomy is composed of a complex system of bones, nerves, organs, and muscles that allow us to function without much thought as to the mechanisms behind these different components of our body. Anatomy (the composition of the human body and the functions its components have) is a

Radioactive waste, production of nuclear weapons, the rarity of nuclear fuel. Thorium reactors promise to solve all these problems, and yet why have we not heard of them and how do they work?
Imagine cooling your food with nothing more than a rubber band. It sounds like science fiction, but the elastocaloric effect can potentially revolutionise refrigeration.
