The world's scientific community has been searching for a way to create limitless energy. From Moon crystals to molecules that violate the laws of physics, the possibilities have been all over the ...

Life on Earth owes its existence to photosynthesis – a process which is 2.3 billion years old. This immensely fascinating (and still not fully understood) reaction enables plants and other organisms ...

Scientists have discovered that a soft, gel-like material called a hydrogel could hold the key to unlocking boundless clean ...

Reliable, artificial photosynthesis could one day help to sustain human civilizations on alien worlds while also combating overheating here at home. That’s why researchers, including Katharina ...

Photosynthesis has evolved in plants for millions of years to turn water, carbon dioxide, and the energy from sunlight into plant biomass and the foods we eat. This process, however, is very ...

Cambridge scientists have built a solar-powered leaf that turns carbon dioxide into sustainable fuel and everyday chemicals.

Without photosynthesis we wouldn’t have food because it converts energy from the sun into chemical energy for the food chains. Image by Tim Sandle Without photosynthesis we wouldn’t have food because ...
