First radio emission detected from planet beyond our solar system

First radio emission detected from planet beyond our solar system Astronomers say they have detected radio emissions directly from a planet outside our solar system for the first time, potentially revealing an enormous magnetic field around the distant world. The repeating radio bursts appear to come from Beta Pictoris b, a gas giant about 63

Solar panel waste silver turned into catalyst for carbon monoxide production

Solar panel waste silver turned into catalyst for carbon monoxide production

South Korean researchers have recovered high-purity silver from end-of-life silicon solar panels and used it to produce electrocatalysts for converting carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide. The recycled-silver electrode sustained CO production for more than 600 hours, with its rough surface helping to prevent electrolyzer flooding.
