Easter is here and we've searched out some of the yummiest Easter recipes for you to try over the long weekend - a mix of adult only and child friendly to keep everyone happy, enjoy!

This week, we round up a busy but successful month for Goodfellow across news, products and innovative talks, an impressive jump in the mobility potential in soft robots, a Swiss start-up combines solar panels and railway tracks in an eco-innovation first, a first-of-its-kind structural paint is the lightest paint in the world with a rainbow of potential benefits, a new development is in the air for solid-state batteries, and from the pages and screens of Sci-Fi, could an epic quest to build a permanent moon base become reality, and soon?

This week, a new future for vehicle charging is on the horizon and it could be as easy as charging your electric toothbrush, the future of exploration could come in the form of a soft polymer robot worm, bizarre properties of strange metals discovered through quantum experiments, the highly debated revolutionary room temperature superconductor (which side will you wind up on?) and could a transistor breakthrough lead to the next generation of electronics and computing systems?

Goodfellow to celebrate than by recognising 7 of the most prominent innovations from the Emerald Isle. These innovations have had a huge impact on today’s world - it’s hard to imagine where we would be without them.

We are pleased to announce the largest range of Single Crystals available anywhere online - a bold claim, but one we believe provides a solution to meet every need, coupled with the fastest delivery time available.

Smaller, lighter, more precise - miniaturisation is the driving force behind many research and development projects and we're pleased to announce our partnership with Eliri to launch our new range of ultrafine wires.

The investigation team at NASA will now observe Dimorphos (Greek word meaning two-forms) using ground-based telescopes to confirm that the Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART)’s impact altered the asteroid’s orbit around Didymos (Greek word meaning twin). Researchers expect the impact to shorten Dimorphos’ orbit by about 1%, or roughly 10 minutes; precisely measuring how much the asteroid was deflected is one of the primary purposes of the full-scale test.

Crucibles are containers made from refractory metals or ceramics, able to withstand high degrees of heat. They are temperature resistant as well as chemically and physically stable at high temperature. This enables you to melt substances, usually metals, in a controlled manner.  

Microporous copper foam coated with a thin, hard layer of copper oxide provides outstanding performance as a low-profile heat sink in passive cooling environments.

The underlying microporous copper foam structure of the heat sinks has pore sizes between 300 and 600 microns and a relative density of around 37%, providing a much higher surface area than traditional copper foams. The black copper oxide that coats the interconnected pores of the thermally conductive copper foam dramatically increases emissivity and therefore passive cooling performance.
