One of the most famous stories of the Pauli effect occurred in 1950 at Princeton University. A complex device suddenly broke down for no apparent reason. Scientists at the lab later discovered that Pauli had just come into town! This incident further cemented the myth.

Chandrayaan-3 Offers Groundbreaking Findings on Water Ice Retention on the Moon
ChaSTE measurements have indicated that there is an impact of local topography on the temperature. The lunar surface temperatures show a significant spatial variability at metre scales at high latitudes, unlike at the equatorial regions, indicating towards the possible presence of widespread water-ice within the shallow subsurface of , even at high latitudes.
The Moon’s Magnetic Mystery: Chandrayaan-2 Just Changed Everything We Knew
A new study based on radio signal analysis of the Chandrayaan-2 (CH-2) orbiter, has yielded surprising information regarding the Moon’s ionosphere. The study reveals that the moon’s ionosphere exhibits unexpectedly high electron densities when it enters the Earth’s geomagnetic tail, which could be explained only by the presence of a lunar crustal magnetic field.

Antimatter falls down due to gravity just like regular matter
A research conducted by scientists using the Antihydrogen Laser Physics Apparatus (ALPHA) at the European Council for Nuclear Research (CERN) has confirmed that antimatter behaves similarly to matter in gravitational fields.
Multifunctional Self-Cleaning Structural colors based on TiO2 nanostructures
Colors play vital role in textiles, automobiles, and decoration sectors. The general source of colors are dyes and pigments but are not safe for human health and at the same time suffer with stability issues, as it degrades with thermal energy, humidity, and UV exposure etc. Nature itself finds the solution and generates colors by means of structures called structural colors. Many fascinating artworks can be found in nature, such as peacock feather, butterfly wings, and gem opals that generate colors because of microstructures on them.
Japan’s SLIM Mission: A Venture for Secure Landings on Moon!
In this article, we will learn what SLIM is, what is the objective of the mission, what experiments are to be conducted using SLIM and why this mission is important not only for Japan but for the whole world.
NASA’s Parker Solar Probe: Closest Ever to the Sun
The Sun is a hot glowing ball of hydrogen and helium 150 million km away from us, and is vital to life on Earth. The Sun’s outer atmosphere, the corona, is 300 times hotter than its outer plasma layer, which appears to defy thermodynamics and is still a mystery. Parker Solar Probe is trying to unviel the mystery of the Sun.
