Dune | The Science of Science Fiction

In Frank Herbert's Dune, just one planet produces a commodity so valuable, it's responsible for faster-than-light space travel and granting its users extended lifespans and psychic powers. This product, known as spice, is related to the planet's fearsome 400-meter sandworms and becomes the

The road to DUNE | Even Bananas

To study the smallest things in nature, scientists build some enormous experiments. One example? The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), which will use mile-deep detectors, each one as long as a jumbo jet, filled with almost 70,000 total tons of liquid argon. So how do scientists
