Iron-on transfers that are produced using a inkjet printer get heat-sealed to light-colored shirts with the inked side facing the fabric. A reverse or mirrored image is necessary when printing this ...

The Big Bang didn’t just result in our familiar universe, according to a mind-bending new theory — it also generated a second “anti-universe” that extended backwards in time, like a mirror image of ...

Organic solar cells are made from conductive polymers, which makes them cheap, light, and flexible. However, one drawback is ...

Scientists have warned that research into “mirror life” organisms — hypothetical life forms made up of molecules that perfectly mirror those found in regular life — should be stopped. Theoretically, ...

Israeli scientists develop a sensor that detects subtle differences in airborne molecules, with major implications for health ...

When people look into a mirror, they see an image of themselves behind the glass. That image results from light rays encountering the shiny surface and bouncing back, or reflecting, providing a ...

The ribosome is one of the most iconic machines in molecular biology—a complex structure that reads a recipe written in RNA to assemble amino acid building blocks into new proteins. Ting Zhu of ...

"In the pharmaceutical industry, it is common and even mandated to synthesize and test such mirror-image drug entities, as they may have different medicinal properties and toxicities," Armstrong said.

In a recent study published in Science, a team of researchers investigated and discussed the potential roadblocks to and risks of "mirror life," where life forms are synthesized using biomolecules ...
