The UD spacesuit shell textiles are treated with multiple nanotechnologies, including shear thickening fluid, a revolutionary material co-developed by UD and STF Technologies that normally behaves like a liquid, but becomes a solid under impact, a useful feature when puncture resistance is a priority. The hope is that beyond puncture protection, the STF-infused spacesuit textiles will offer greater dust deterrence, increasing the material’s lifespan in space.

Mimicking the complex structure and function of the lung in a lab setting is inherently challenging. The UD-developed 3D lung model is unique in several ways. First, the model breathes in the same cyclic motion as an actual lung. That’s key, Fromen said. The model also contains lattice structures to represent the entire volume and surface area of a lung.

Cattle produce more methane than any other livestock. Methane, a greenhouse gas, traps heat, which warms the Earth. It is far more powerful than its more common counterpart, carbon dioxide.
When cows graze, microbes in their stomach break down their food and make methane. Cows then belch and fart that methane into the Earth’s atmosphere, through a process called enteric fermentation. The that just one cow can emit 154 to 264 pounds of methane gas into the atmosphere each year.
