Sandia-developed foam likely would stop SARS virus quickly, Sandia/Kansas State team shows
DOE/Sandia National LaboratoriesPeer-Reviewed Publication
Researchers at the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration's Sandia National Laboratories and Kansas State University have shown that chemical formulations previously developed at Sandia to decontaminate chemical and biological warfare agents are likely effective at killing the virus that causes Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS).

RAPTOR science
DOE/Los Alamos National Laboratory
A small robotic observatory system, called RAPTOR, is poised to take movies of fleeting astrophysical events. These movies will help astronomers better understand planetary systems, stars, galaxies, and the universe. Some of RAPTOR's data analysis techniques can also be applied to defense problems.

Nuclear renaissance
DOE/Los Alamos National Laboratory
Growing levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide are raising concerns of global warming and sparking renewed interest in nuclear power. Unlike coal- and gas-fired power plants, nuclear power plants provide electricity without emitting carbon dioxide. They could also enable a hydrogen economy.
