Now, the Pentagon’s research arm aims to explore another use for the atmosphere: Its viability to act as a sensor that can pinpoint potential disruptions to the planet.

He decided it was time to build his own solution to this problem. What he ended up with was a water level sensor made from PVC pipe and a few other components.

While trying to determine if it could use the entire Earth's atmosphere as a massive sensor, the US military’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) made a highly unusual detection.

A new sensor has recently been developed for the purpose of detecting and monitoring mercury levels in our atmosphere. Researchers at the University of Miami (UM), who conducted the study, suggest ...

Also, unlike other NO2 sensors, which perform at high temperatures, the new sensor works even at room temperature. NO2 is a harmful gas mostly emitted by diesel engines and thermal power plants.
