Astrobiologist Joshua Sebree of the University of Northern Iowa suggests that South Dakota's Wind Cave exhibits chemical ...
Inside Wind Cave the scientists found that chemicals fossilised within the rocks shine in brilliant hues of pink, blue, and ...
Deep below the Earth’s surface, rock and mineral formations lay hidden with a secret brilliance. Under a black light, the chemicals fossilized within shine in brilliant hues of pink, blue and green.
Biofluorescence is widespread in birds-of-paradise, a group of tropical birds famous for their spectacular courtship dances.
Fluorescent caves deep below America show how alien life could exist on one of Jupiter's moons, say scientists. The chemistry ...
In vertebrate retinas, specialized photoreceptors responsible for color vision (cone cells) arrange themselves in patterns ...
The rock formations in caves are chemistry fossils — that glow. These rocks are made of calcite, a form of calcium carbonate. Impurities trapped in calcite cause the mineral to fluoresce different ...
Bioluminescent luciferase enzymes have historically been too dim to use as probes in living tissue. But recent advances have ...
