Reflective Bacteria: What Are We Referencing?

Since the beginnings of biology, the chirality of living molecules has intrigued scientists. This fundamental asymmetry, present in amino acids and sugars that make up all cells, seems to be a universal rule for life on earth.

Space Debris: An Increasing Risk to Earth’s Orbit

A saturated orbit: inventory of a growing problem Terrestrial orbit is today crowded by thousands of objects from several decades of spatial exploration. It is estimated that more than 36,500 debris measuring more than 10 cm, not to mention more than a million smaller fragments. This accumulation mainly results from human activities in orbit and … Read more
