Life in Space? In this photo released from the University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, embryology researcher Justin Matthew examines a portion of a device that will carry three samples of just-fertilized bovine embryos into space at the university in Gainesville,Fla., Thursday, Nov. 6, 2008. Matthew and fellow researcher Luciano Bonilla will prepare the embryos, from the Gainesville laboratory of animal sciences professor Peter Hansen, so that space’s effects on early-stage mammalian life can be studied aboard theFriday, Nov. 14 flight of space shuttle Endeavour.

Walking Assistan... Robotic suits named HAL, or "hybrid assistive limb," are demonstrated during a press conference at the headquarters of Cyberdyne, a new company in Tsukuba, outside Tokyo, Tuesday, Oct. 7, 2008. HAL, that reads brain signals and helps people with mobility problems, will be available to rent in Japan for US$2,200 for both legs and $1,500 for a one leg a month starting Friday _ an invention that may have far-reaching benefits for the disabled and elderly.

Seeing Red This photo provided by Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and Graduate Program in Neuroscience and the Weill Graduate School of Medical Sciences of Cornell University shows tissues of a mouse embryo labeled with a green fluorescent protein and a red fluorescent protein. Two Americans and a U.S.-based Japanese scientist won the Nobel Prize in chemistry on Wednesday Oct. 8, 2008 for research on a glowing jellyfish protein that revolutionized the ability to study disease and normal development in living organisms. Researchers worldwide now use GFP to track such processes as the development of brain cells, the growth of tumors and the spread of cancer cells. (AP Photo/MSKCC, Gloria Kwon, Kat Hadjantonakis)
Total Eclipse The total solar eclipse is observed above the mountainous Siberian Altai region,_ about 3,000 kilometers (1,850 miles) east of Moscow, on Friday, Aug. 1, 2008. (AP Photo/Oleg Romanov)
Albino Alligator Anmale albino American alligator swims in his new home at the California Academy of Sciences new facility at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, Tuesday, Aug. 19, 2008. A pair of American alligators were driven over 2,800 miles (4500 kms) from a zoological park in St. Augustine, Fla., to be among the 38,000 live animals that will have a new home at the Academy of Sciences. The facility opens on September 27, 2008. (AP Photo/Marcio Jose Sanchez)
The 'Winglet' A model demonstrates Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corp.'s new motorized ride "Winglet" during a press conference in Tokyo Friday, Aug. 1, 2008. Toyota will start testing the stand-up-and-ride contraption, that travels at up to 6 kph (3.7 mph), later this year at a Japanese airport and resort complex and next year at a shopping mall to get feedback from people. No plans are set to sell the Winglet as a commercial product. (AP Photo/Katsumi Kasahara)
Secret Van Gogh Undated handout picture shows a painting underneath Van Gogh's famous work 'Patch of grass' in Hamburg. Scientists have made a coloured view of an early rejected painting underneath Vincent van Gogh's 'Patch of Grass' painting, using advanced X-ray techniques, a Dutch university said on Wednesday.

Burping for Scie... Guillermo Berra, a researcher at the National Institute of Agricultural Technology, adjusts a plastic tank on the back of a cow at their farm in Castelar, on the outskirts of Buenos Aires, July 4, 2008. Argentine scientists are taking a novel approach to studying global warming, strapping plastic tanks to the backs of cows to collect their burps. (REUTERS/Marcos Brindicci)
Chinese Algae Bl... A Chinese swimmer removes blue green algae from coastal waters in Qingdao, eastern China, Wednesday, July 2, 2008. A little over a month before the start of the 2008 Olympic Games the venue for the sailing events in Qingdao has been invaded by a forest of blue green algae. City officials say they'll need at least two weeks to clear the coastal waters, mobilizing 10,000 workers aboard 1,000 boats. (AP Photo/Ng Han Guan)
Space Ribbon This image provided by NASA July 1, 2008 shows a delicate ribbon of gas floats eerily in our galaxy. This image taken by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope is a very thin section of a supernova remnant caused by a stellar explosion that occurred more than 1,000 years ago. The supernova was probably the brightest star ever seen by humans, and surpassed Venus as the brightest object in the night time sky, only to be surpassed by the moon. It was visible even during the day for weeks, and remained visible to the naked eye for at least two and a half years before fading away. (AP/NASA)
Super Collider This March 22, 2007 file photo, shows the magnet core of the world's largest superconducting solenoid magnet (CMS, Compact Muon Solenoid) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN)'s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator, which is scheduled to be switched on in November, in Geneva, Switzerland. Some 2,000 scientists from 155 institutes in 36 countries are working together to build the CMS particle detector. (AP Photo/Keystone, Martial Trezzini, file)
Seas of Green Chinese men stand on a barge surrounded by blue-green algae that choked up the coastline of Qingdao, the host city for sailing events at the 2008 Olympic Games, in eastern China's Shandong province Tuesday June 24, 2008. The Qingdao government has organized 400 boats and 3000 people to help remove the algae after Olympics organizers ordered a cleanup. Experts say the algae is a result of climate change, and recent heavy rains in southern China, according to the Xinhua news agency. (AP Photo/EyePress)
Chinese Algae Bl... A bird rests amidst an algae bloom clogging up a beach in Qingdao, China, Tuesday, July 1, 2008. China has mobilized thousands of workers to clean up the algae bloom threatening Olympic sailing events in the eastern city of Qingdao. (AP Photo/Ng Han Guan)
Colors on Mars This image provided by NASA shows an area located west of the Nili Fossae trough on Mars, one of the proposed landing sites for the Mars Science Laboratory. The image was taken by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter. The dark terrain is fairly featureless in some areas, whereas other parts, when zoomed in to high resolution, show ripples, sand deposits resulting from wind activity. The lighter terrain is bedrock. The green and bluish colors represent a composition rich in mafic (iron- and magnesium-rich) minerals such as pyroxene and maybe olivine, with green having the greatest concentration. The green-blue material at the upper right is mostly rock, whereas the materials in the bedforms (at left) are composed of sand. The reddish materials are composed of magnesium- and iron-rich clays, possibly formed by ancient water that altered volcanic rock. In this scenario, the polygonal texture could represent cracks formed after the clays dried. (AP Photo/NASA)
Dragon Rider An endangered Fijian Crested Iguana is perched on a statue of a distant reptilian cousin, a Komodo Dragon, at Sydney's Taronga Zoo Thursday, June 19, 2008. The zoo has begun a program to help save the iguana which survive on only a few scattered Pacific islands. (AP Photo/Rick Rycroft)
Baby Supernova This image provided by NASA Wednesday May 14, 2008 shows a composite image of the supernova remnant G1.9+0.3 taken by NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. The image obtained in early 2007 is shown in orange and the radio image from NRAO's Very Large Array (VLA) from 1985 is in blue. The difference in size between the two images gives clear evidence for expansion, allowing the time since the original supernova explosion (about 140 years) to be estimated. his makes the original explosion the most recent supernova in the Galaxy, as measured in Earth's time-frame (referring to when events are observable at Earth). Equivalently, this is the youngest known supernova remnant in the Galaxy (140 years old), easily beating the previous record of about 330 years for Cassiopeia A. The rapid expansion and young age for G1.9+0.3 was recently confirmed by a new VLA image obtained in early 2008. (AP Photo/NASA)
