School pupils were given a hands-on experience of engineering at the University of Sussex just days before International Women in Engineering Day.
Paleontologists are trying to dispel a myth about what life was like when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. The false narrative has wormed its way into books, lectures and even scientific papers about this long-ago era. The myth's focus isn't on dinosaurs. Its main characters are ancient mammals and their relatives, which together are known as mammaliaforms.

"warm" glow of Uranus’s rings
The rings of Uranus are invisible to all but the largest telescopes - they weren't even discovered until 1977 - but they're surprisingly bright in new heat images of the planet taken by two large telescopes in the high deserts of Chile.

Creating Lungs "From Scratch"
Erica Comber, a Ph.D. student in the Department of Biomedical Engineering (BME) , and her colleagues in Carnegie Mellon University's Bioengineered Organs Initiative , are working to help people with lung disease by making them new ones. Comber and her adviser Keith Cook , professor of biomedical engineering, recently outlined several different approaches to creating human lungs from scratch in a first-of-its-kind paper.

As above, so below - lunar rescue device tested underwater
With its rocky, sandy terrain and buoyant salt water, the bottom of the ocean floor has more in common with the lunar surface than you might imagine. That is why this week two members of NASA mission NEEMO 23 are testing ESA's latest prototype to rescue astronauts on the Moon. ESA's Lunar Evacuation System Assembly (LESA) is a pyramid-like structure designed to be deployed by a single astronaut in lunar gravity to rescue an incapacitated crewmate.

ESA will be participating in this year's Asteroid Day , the UN-endorsed global awareness campaign day on the small rocky bodies scattered across space, taking place on Sunday, 30 June. The Agency will share with media and public its various activities related to asteroids, which it regards as a vital subject for scientific study, as 'time capsules' from early in the history of the Solar System and the birth of the planets.
