\"\"Japan update: Engineers have successfully attached power lines to Fukushima’s<\/a> reactor 2—a major development that should allow the pumps to cool the core. Still others warn that the reactor cores aren’t what’s really dangerous<\/a>: It’s the spend fuel rods that we should be worrying about.
In less lethal news, scientists have created the first permanent anti-fog coating<\/a> for glass and plastic surfaces. The days to steamy ski goggles and fog-strewn windshields may be coming to a close.
Monkey see, monkey recognize: Scientist have demonstrated that monkeys can discern the faces<\/a> of their friends—the creature spent more time staring at unfamiliar animals. The very fact that the monkeys took interest and scrutinized the photos are what surprised them the most.
Turning the tides on carbon emissions: Scotland plans on installing the world’s largest tidal-power array<\/a>. Ten underwater turbines will provide enough electricity for up to 10,000 homes, more than two times the electricity needs of two small islands.
No more space limbo: Europe has finally figured out funding arrangements<\/a> to extend operations for the International Space Station till 2020. <\/p>
