Read more A large international clinical trial has unveiled a promising new option for people living with highly treatment-resistant HIV. For a small but important group of people living with HIV, treatment has never reached the “one pill a day” milestone. Drug resistance built up over decades, along with other medical conditions and long medication lists, can [...] Show less

Read more Estimating a mass for a potentially hazardous asteroid (PHA) is perhaps the single most important thing to understand about it, after its trajectory. Actually doing so isn’t easy though, as the mass for objects in the tens to hundreds of kilometers in size are too small to have their mass calculated by traditional radio-frequency tracking techniques. A new paper from Justin Atchison of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory and his co-authors proposes a method that could find the mass of asteroids even on the smaller end of that range, but will require precise coordination.
