In 2019, researchers from the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, led by researcher Qu Jianjun, developed the "Sand Control Magic Cube 2.0" after repeated experiments.

The China-Italy Joint Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology and Immunosafety has been launched in south China's Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, aiming to promote international transformation of sci-tech achievements in the biopharmaceutical field.

The world's largest fully steerable radio telescope is under construction in northeast China's Jilin Province. Located in Huadian, Jilin, the radio telescope will be 120 meters in diameter and help scientists in understanding planets and asteroids more accurately. What is special about the new telescope is that it can send electromagnetic waves to celestial bodies and receive the return waves to measure the distances between the planets and the Earth accurately.

China's Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), the world's largest filled-aperture and most sensitive radio telescope, has identified more than 1,000 new pulsars, its operator said on Tuesday. The number of new pulsars discovered by FAST has surpassed that of all foreign telescopes combined during the same period.

As the world grapples with an escalating water crisis, a Chinese scientist's innovative solution to water pollution is receiving international acclaim for its potential to benefit more people worldwide, particularly in developing nations. Qu Jiuhui, a scientist at the Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering, has been awarded the 2024 Nobel Sustainability Award for "Outstanding Research and Development in the Field of Water".

The Climate Science for Service Partnership China (CSSP China) project, launched in 2014 by the UK Met Office, the China Meteorological Administration, and the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, aims to build climate-resilient services for economic and social development.

Researchers have discovered that Earth's terrestrial carbon sequestration capacity has faced challenges during warm extreme occurrences -- periods of unusually high temperatures driven by climate change -- over the past 40 years, according to a recent research article published in the journal Nature Ecology &Evolution.

After more than nine years of construction, the main body of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) was completed on Wednesday and is scheduled to be put into operation next year. The observatory, located in Jiangmen City, south China's Guangdong Province, is the world's largest transparent spherical detector 700 meters underground to capture elusive neutrinos, to unravel the secrets of the infinitesimally small and the infinitely vast in the universe.

Chinese scientists have performed quantum experiments at various levels, including metropolitan, intercity, intercontinental, and in space. They have now achieved a breakthrough with a drone, paving the way for a future where this "unhackable" encryption technology can be deployed in the real world. The researchers from Nanjing University and University of Science and Technology of China have pioneered a global first by completing a quantum key distribution (QKD) experiment based on a drone platform.

A closed aquatic ecosystem established on China's space station proved to be successful, as four zebrafish kept in it completed their life stages from growth to development and reproduction in 43 days, according to an article recently published by The Innovation journal.

The latest discoveries achieved via studies of lunar rock samples retrieved by China's Chang'e-6 spacecraft were published in the world's leading scientific journals on Friday, revealing the volcanic history of the moon's lesser-known far side, which is distinct from its near side.

Chinese scientists have completed manned deep-dive expeditions in eight major hadal trenches across the globe, achieving multiple world records related to manned deep-sea missions and discoveries. This was revealed at the second International Conference on the Biology, Geology and Environment of the Hadal Trenches, which opened Thursday in Sanya of the southern island province of Hainan.
