Astronomers See a Black Hole Wake Up from its Ancient SlumberAstronomers have watched a black hole in a distant galaxy "wake up" and start emitting light and strong radiation as it begins to eat.

Rethinking Sunspots: Solar Physicists Uncover Surprising Shallow New OriginsNew research suggests the solar dynamo, responsible for solar cycles and sunspots, starts in the sun’s outer layers. This challenges older theories of a deeper origin and offers insights into the predictable patterns of solar activity. A team of solar scientists has uncovered the possible origina

Don’t Miss: Witness a “Once-in-a-Lifetime” Nova ExplosionThis summer, astronomers worldwide are eagerly anticipating a nova event in the constellation Corona Borealis, visible to the naked eye. This eagerly awaited event, which occurs roughly every 80 years, promises to engage both professional astronomers and amateur stargazers, providing significant

Boeing’s Starliner Stuck at Space Station: Unraveling Helium Leaks and Thruster TroublesBoeing’s Starliner spacecraft is stuck at the Space Station for now as NASA and Boeing have adjusted the return schedule to address issues within the propulsion system while managing conflicts with planned spacewalks at the International Space Station. This delay allows for comprehensive reviews

OpenAI Has Imprisoned The AI Running For Mayor In WyomingVictor Miller, 42, a citizen of Cheyenne, Wyoming, has made headlines for submitting paperwork to run for mayor in political campaigns. Miller’s

AI Designs Radical Magnet Free of Rare-Earth Metals in Just 3 MonthsWe urgently need to move away from fossil fuels, but electric vehicles and other green technology can put their own pressures on the environment.

This New Chinese Cell Technology Is Capable Of Reaching Almost Full Charge In Under 10 MinutesGotion High-Tech, a Chinese battery manufacturer, announced the launch of two innovative batteries and advancements in solid-state technology at its a

Faster Than the Speed of Light: Information Transfer Through “Spooky Action at a Distance” at the Large Hadron ColliderResearchers have confirmed that quantum entanglement persists between top quarks, the heaviest known fundamental particles. Physicists have demonstrated quantum entanglement in top quarks and their antimatter partners, a discovery made at CERN. This finding extends the behavior of entangled particl

12 old shoes found in archaeological excavations from around the worldShoes can give us an interesting insight into what people used to wear. Here are a dozen of the most extraordinary finds from the archaeological record.

Scientists Reverse Alzheimer's Synapse Damage in MiceScientists in Japan reversed the signs of Alzheimer’s in lab mice by restoring the healthy function of neuron synapses in their brains.

Feeling the Beat: Music’s Global Language of EmotionA study shows music evokes consistent emotional and physical responses globally, driven by inherent biological mechanisms, not culture. Music influences feelings in different body parts based on the emotion it conveys, supporting its role in social bonding. New research shows that music evokes si

Common Household Cleaning Product Found To Release Trillions of Microplastic FibersMelamine sponges release trillions of microplastic fibers monthly, posing environmental risks. Making denser sponges and using alternative cleaning methods are recommended solutions. If you've ever owned white shoes or attempted to scrub crayon marks off a wall, you’re probably thankful for melamin

DIANA Debunked by MIT: The MRI That Couldn’t Read MindsA recent study at MIT has debunked the effectiveness of a new MRI method called DIANA, which was initially thought to directly detect neural activity. Instead, the signals detected were found to be artifacts produced by the imaging process itself, highlighting the complexities and challenges in d

Study challenges popular idea that Easter islanders committed 'ecocide'Some 1,000 years ago, a small band of Polynesians sailed thousands of miles across the Pacific to settle one of the world's most isolated places -- a small, previously uninhabited island they named Rapa Nui. Eventually, their numbers ballooned to unsustainable levels, they wrecked the environment, and their civilization collapsed. At least that is the longtime story, told in academic studies and popular books. A new study challenges this narrative of 'ecocide' saying that Rapa Nui's population never spiraled to unsustainable levels.
