The Kingdom of Denmark just got a teeny bit bigger after researchers from the University of Copenhagen accidentally discovered the world's northernmost island. Measuring only 100 x 200 ft, the still unnamed isle is located off the coast of Greenland.

Imagine if in order to get apple juice, the whole tree had to be ground up, and then the juice had to be separated. Well, that's kind of how things currently are with plant extracts … but perhaps not for much longer, thanks to a tiny new harvester.

Scientists have achieved quantum teleportation between two computer chips for the first time, sending information between them without being physically or electronically connected. The feat opens the door for quantum computers and quantum internet.

​Due to its simple structure and rapid rate of reproduction, the bacteria E. Coli is favored in scientific research. E. coli have been used to do everything from creating antibiotics to manufacturing propane. Now, researchers have paired the bacteria with robots to create a manufacturing power duo.

Lightweight, foldable, and strong sheets of "power paper" have been created by scientists that can store significant amounts of electric charge and may one day provide ultra-thin electricity storage for modern devices.

Currently, if you want to check water supplies for the presence of toxic bacteria, you have to take a water sample and then culture it in a lab over several days. A group of students, however, have created a sensor that they say can detect bacteria in water instantly, on the spot.

Using a new type of optical fiber, researchers at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) have transmitted data over a single optical fiber at a speed of 43 terabits per second (43 Tbps) to set a new data transmission world record, beating the previous record of 32 Tbps.

Researchers are reporting the development of a new "carpet cloak" technology that is only a few times larger than the objects it conceals.
