Roughly 73 million years ago, dinosaurs like tyrannosaurs and hadrosaurs lived among conifer trees in northern Alaska. The region was also home to a much smaller creature—a tiny mammal that weathered months of darkness and freezing temperatures in the winter.

Engineers at CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ have designed a new, shape-shifting display that can fit on a card table and allows users to draw 3D designs and more.

Thirty years after the late linguistics professor Allan Taylor planted two rare agave plants outside a CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ greenhouse, his legacy is sporting a once-in-a lifetime burst of color.

In the wake of the devastating Marshall Fire, a team of chemists and engineers from CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ undertook a first-of-its-kind study to explore homes that survived the blaze. Their results reveal the potential health hazards that wildfires can leave behind in buildings.

Every year, consumers in the United States produce millions of tons of plastic waste, and most of it winds up in landfills. New research from chemists at CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ takes a first step toward making all that trash vanish.

Kevin Welner, a lawyer and professor of education at CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ, explained that individual college applicants can still mention how their race or ethnicity has shaped their lives in essays and interviews.

At the center of nearly all large galaxies in the cosmos sits a supermassive black hole. In new research, a CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ astrophysicist explores what might happen if you put these giants one-by-one on a massive scale.

The new mini-satellite, called MANTIS, will be designed and built by the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics. It borrows its name from the mantis shrimp, an undersea creature with famously powerful eyesight.

One day, small spacecraft could fly around Earth, using devices called electron beams to remove hulking, derelict spacecraft from orbit without ever having to touch. It may sound like science fiction, but aerospace engineers from CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ say they could be ready to test the idea in space in just five to 10 years.

The asteroid 7482 (1994 PC1) measures about two-thirds of a mile across. It will also remain in Earth's vicinity for much of the next 1,000 years. CU ÐßÐßÊÓƵ aerospace engineer Oscar Fuentes-Muñoz says its important to study objects like this one to make sure they don't pose a risk to life on our planet.
