Honeybees are nature’s tiny workers. Their fuzzy yellow and black striped bodies buzz between flowers, picking up pollen for their hives. They’re renowned for making honeycomb, a mass of hexagonal ...

Hexagonal structures are very strong and commonly used in building multiple products in a wide range of industries. For example, hexagonal structures are used to construct airplane wings, boats, cars, ...

Honeycomb is a unique item dropped from the Bee Nest (or Beehive). So note that finding a Bee Nest or Beehive is the only way to get Honeycomb. Bee Nests are naturally generated on any trees when the ...

We've known for a number of years already that bee populations around the world are in peril, due to a number of factors including human-caused habitat destruction and the overuse of pesticides. But ...

At first glance, the hexagonal cells build by honey bees and social wasps may seem similar, but they are significantly different. Honey bees build using wax, whereas wasps use paper. Honey bees build ...

Purdue University engineers and entomologists are making some sweet discoveries about how honeybees build and structure their honeycombs, which could lead to new fabrication techniques taken from the ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WISH) — Australian stingless bees are providing unexpected inspiration for engineers and designers, thanks to their uniquely structured honeycombs that defy traditional vertical ...

EPFL researchers are developing robotic beehive frames that help locate honey stores inside of beehives over time, without relying on cameras. The aim is to develop new observation tools to study ...

Students in the 7th grade art class at Westtown Schools completed a design challenge to create a three-part story explaining a science or life skills concept. Each piece was created from everyday ...
