Researchers have found a way to turn cheap, everyday cooking oil into the wonder material graphene - a technique that could greatly reduce the cost of making the much-touted nanomaterial. Graphene is a single sheet of carbon atoms with incredible properties - it's 200 times stronger than steel, harder than diamond, and incredibly flexible. Under certain conditions, it can even be turned into a superconductor that carries electricity with zero resistance.

Scientists discovered the evidence of atleast 2 billion years of volcanic activity on Red Planet. On analyzing the Martian Meteorite, which was found in 2012 in Africa, it is confirms that some of the longest-lived volcanoes in the solar system may be found on the Mars. Moreover, it is found that Volcanoes of the Mars are many times bigger in comparison to volcanoes on Earth. Olympus Mons, the largest Martian volcano, is nearly 27.3 kilometers high. Almost triple the height of Earth’s tallest volcano, Mauna Kea, at 10 kilometers.
