The technique of degrading and reconstituting viruses may make it possible to create safe and effective vaccines against diseases, e.g., polio, that are caused by simple viruses. Only about 1% of the TMV particles that were reconstituted during the experiment proved fully infectious. The rest were imperfect in...

The light affected sensitive instruments so strongly that it drove them off-scale. It will be at least a month before Air Force scientists can analyze...
Artificial Islands. The company tried an experiment of setting guards to protect small peninsulas where a few birds alight occasionally.
