A Simple, No-Bake Recipe to Make Bricks from Martian Soil

Future explorers on Mars would just need to apply pressure to compact the soil to make bricks

Explorers planning to settle on Mars might be able to turn the planet’s red soil into bricks without needing to use an oven or additional ingredients. Instead, they would just need to apply pressure to compact the soil—the equivalent of a blow from a hammer.

Evolution of the Laboratory Centrifuge

From its humble roots in the dairy industry to a laboratory necessity, the centrifuge has changed greatly

Bench top centrifuges have been in use since the mid-1800s. Early instruments were hand powered, but in 1912, with the introduction of electric centrifuges, that changed. The early centrifuges were mostly used for non-biological applications, such as separating milk and collecting precipitates.

CO2 Incubator Resource Guide

Having the right CO2 incubator can be crucial to a lab's cells

CO2 incubators are designed to copy a cell’s natural environment with a relative humidity of around 95 percent, a temperature of 37°C, and a pH of 7.2 to 7.5. They are most common in biology labs performing tissue or cell culture and are used in any process where cells need to be cultured for a few hours or many weeks or where cells need to be expanded or maintained.
