Upon his death, Albert Einstein's brain was photographed and dissected into 240 parts. Scientists are now looking through the material for anatomical quirks that would help shed light on the physicist's genius.
The National Transportation Safety Board is hoping that its interviews with the four pilots of Flight 214 will shed light on the aircraft’s erratic approach and the cockpit’s last-minute attempt to abort the landing.
A US-British team of astronomers discovered a planet 1,200 light-years away with ultra-high concentrations of carbon. This supports the idea that it could have mountains made up of diamonds.
