Glowing anemone yields 'light switch' protein

The glowing striped tentacles of the fluorescent anemone emerge out of the darkness. Nothing particularly special about that, except that this species, which may never have been seen before, is one of just a handful of organisms whose fluorescence can be switched on and off.

Chemistry Nobel Prize Awarded for Glowing Protein Work

Two U.S. scientists and a U.S.-based Japanese researcher will share the 2008 Nobel Prize in chemistry for discovering and developing a glowing green protein that has been key to improving our understanding of cell development.

3 scientists win chemistry Nobel for glowing protein

Stockholm: Two Americans and a US-based Japanese scientist won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for research on a glowing jellyfish protein that revolutionised the ability to study disease and normal development in living organisms.

iRiver Mickey MP3 Player, Now With Glowing Demon Eyes

iRiver has updated their potentially cancer-causing, child-warping Mickey Mouse MP3 players with something even better: demonic powers! Yes, it now has glowing LED (light-emitting demon) eyes. No specs on what horrible, disfiguring things it'll do to you and your children, but Disney sorcery is pretty potent stuff. Oh, it also has 2GB of storage for MP3 or WMA files. You can gaze directly into its burning eyes in the super close-up below, but if it compels you to stab yourself in the brain with a fork, don't hold us responsible.

Nobel Prize Awarded For Work With Glowing Jellyfish Protein

Two Americans and one Japanese researcher were awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in Chemistry on Wednesday for the discovery and development of a brightly glowing protein first seen in jellyfish, which has helped scientists understand how cancer cells spread.

Glowing Stellar Nurseries Revealed By APEX

Illustrating the power of submillimeter-wavelength astronomy, an APEX image reveals how an expanding bubble of ionized gas about ten light-years across is causing the surrounding material to collapse into dense clumps that are the birthplaces of new stars. Submillimeter light is the key to revealing some of the coldest material in the Universe, such as these cold, dense clouds.

Glowing praise: Nobel awarded for fluorescent jellyfish protein

STOCKHOLM (AFP) - Osamu Shimomura of Japan and US duo Martin Chalfie and Roger Tsien on Wednesday won the Nobel Chemistry Prize for a fluorescent protein derived from a jellyfish that has become a vital lab tool.

Glowing proteins lead the way to the Chemistry Nobel Prize

The 2008 Nobel Prize for Chemistry has been awarded equally to three chemists "for the discovery and development of the green fluorescent protein (GFP),” one of the most important tools in bioscience.

Glowing Gene's Discoverer Left Out Of Nobel Prize

Fluorescent "tags" reveal how some cancer cells (blue) are making more of a specific protein (green). Douglas Prasher isolated the gene for the green fluorescent protein that helped three other scientists earn a Nobel Prize in chemistry.

Glowing Red Fish Discovered

September 22, 2008--The reef fish Enneapterygius pusillus has found a creative way to communicate with other fish in a world dominated by blues and greens: The fish literally glows red.

APEX reveals glowing stellar nurseries

The region, called RCW120, is about 4200 light years from Earth, towards the constellation of Scorpius. A hot, massive star in its centre is emitting huge amounts of ultraviolet radiation, which ionises the surrounding gas, stripping the electrons from hydrogen atoms and producing the characteristic red glow of so-called H-alpha emission.

Telescope Views Glowing Stellar Nurseries

Illustrating the power of submillimetre-wavelength astronomy, an APEX telescope image reveals how an expanding bubble of ionised gas about ten light-years across is causing the surrounding material to collapse into dense clumps that are the birthplaces of new stars. Submillimetre light is the key to revealing some of the coldest material in the universe, such as these cold, dense clouds.

Fluorescent-Red Glowing Fish Found

New image reveals glowing stellar nurseries

Illustrating the power of sub-millimeter-wavelength astronomy, an Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescope image reveals how an expanding bubble of ionized gas about 10 light-years across causes the surrounding material to collapse into dense clumps that are the birthplaces of new stars. Sub-millimeter light is the key to revealing some of the coldest material in the universe, such as these cold, dense clouds.

New Submillimeter Image Reveals Glowing Stellar Nurseries

Submillimeter astronomy used to be known as the last unexplored wavelength frontier. But this new image from the Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX) telescope reveals the awesome power of submillimetre-wavelength astronomy, and shows another new frontier: a birthplace of new stars. An expanding bubble of ionized gas about ten light-years across is causing the surrounding material to collapse into dense clumps, creating new stars. Submillimetre light is the key to revealing some of the coldest material in the Universe, such as these cold, dense clouds.

Inventors Sue Logisys Over Glowing Keyboards

Law360, New York (October 28, 2008) -- Two inventors have followed a recent fusillade of infringement actions with a suit against Logisys Computer Inc., claiming the company and a Chinese manufacturer make products that violate a pair of patents related to illuminated keyboards.

Jumbo Microscopes, High-powered Nanotubes, Glowing Corals, Biomolecules: Highlights of AVS 55th International Symposium

The AVS 55th International Symposium next month in Boston will showcase research from across the spectrum of science and engineering devoted to research on such topics as nanotechnology, alternative energy, materials research, and medicine.

First Far Cry 2 Reviews are Glowing (94%, 9/10, 9/10)

Most people would call the period we are about to be entering the holiday season. Us gamers refer to it as a different name: FPS season. And one of the plenty of shooters releasing this fall that hopes to stand out from the pack is Far Cry 2. We already know the game is gorgeous but will it capture our hearts with its gameplay? The first three reviewers of the game seem to think so.

Jellyfish help scientists win Nobel chemistry prize for work on cell activity

The discovery of a green-glowing protein from jellyfish has helped net two American and one Japanese scientists the Nobel prize for chemistry. Each will take an equal share of the 10m Swedish kronor (818,000) award.
