A Rare Alignment of 7 Planets Is Taking Place in The Sky This WeekA very rare treat is about to grace Earth's night skies.

Type 1 diabetes reversed by new cell transplantation techniqueTransplanting insulin-producing cells along with engineered blood-vessel-forming cells has successfully reversed type 1 diabetes, according to a new preclinical study. With further testing, the novel approach could one day cure the as-yet incurable condition.

Broccoli sprout compound can help fend off type 2 diabetesThe antioxidant sulforaphane, which is found in broccoli sprouts in high concentrations, can improve blood sugar levels in some people with prediabetes, according to new research. The findings suggest a need to personalize the treatment of the condition, a precursor to type 2 diabetes.

Afternoon Naps Boost Your Problem-Solving, Study FindsA new study suggests afternoon naps boost the brain's problem-solving skills, with rapid eye movement (REM) sleep – the dreaming stage of sleep, theoretically linked to storing memories and processing emotions – particularly important.

Why some chaos-seekers just want to watch the world burnA political scientist explains how a confluence of personality traits and perceived status loss can encourage some people to generate chaos as a solution to their woes.

Are we disciplining ourselves out of happiness?"There will always be too much to do. You're never going to feel completely ready. You're never going to be able to feel confident about what's coming in the future."

Narcissists more likely to feel ostracizedNarcissists feel ostracized more frequently than their less self-absorbed peers, according to researchers. This may stem not only from being shunned due to their personalities but from a tendency to misinterpret ambiguous social signals as exclusion.

After 20 Years, Math Couple Solves Major Group Theory Problem | Quanta MagazineBritta Späth has dedicated her career to proving a single, central conjecture. She’s finally succeeded, alongside her partner, Marc Cabanes.

Ancient seafarers in Southeast Asia may have built advanced boats 40,000 years agoThe ancient peoples of the Philippines and of Island Southeast Asia (ISEA) may have built sophisticated boats and mastered seafaring tens of thousands of years ago—millennia before Magellan, Zheng He, and even the Polynesians.

Scientists identify tipping point for Greenland's ice sheet — and it's not far offGreenland's ice sheet has been losing a staggering amount of ice at an accelerating rate. A tipping point could come by the turn of the next century, a new study warns.

Scientists discover unexpected decline in global ocean evaporation amid rising sea temperaturesA study published in Geophysical Research Letters has challenged the conventional understanding of the relationship between global warming and ocean evaporation. A research team from the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences discovered a phenomenon that, despite rising sea surface temperatures, global ocean evaporation has decreased over the past decade.

Stuff for Feb 25 2025.pdf

GPS jamming, a weapon in hot and hybrid wars, will soon be obsoleteThe practice contributed to the deadly Christmas Day crash of an Azerbaijan Airlines passenger jet in 2024.

New 'deep freeze' funerals could offer alternative to cremationThe process would see bodies frozen and pulverised into powder.

Brewing tea reduces toxic heavy metals in drinking water, study findsGood news for tea lovers: That daily brew might be purifying the water, too.

Blocking the Internet on People's Phones for Two Weeks Led to Profound Changes in Mental Health and Attention SpanResearchers blocked the internet access of participants' phones for two weeks, producing an astounding boost to their mental health.

Common procedures for chronic spine pain found to offer little to no reliefResearchers from McMaster University and collaborating institutions found that commonly performed interventional procedures for chronic non-cancer spine pain may provide little to no pain relief when compared with sham procedures.

The Scientific Literature Can’t Save You NowYou can cite peer-reviewed research in support of almost any claim, no matter how absurd.

Forget apples—researcher outlines how an orange a day may reduce depression risk by 20%]Eating an orange a day may lower a person's depression risk by 20%, according to a study published in Microbiome. That might be because citrus stimulates the growth of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii (F. prausnitzii), a type of bacteria found in the human gut, to influence production of the neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine—two biological molecules known to elevate mood.

Scientists Invent Device That Straps To Any Car's Tailpipe, Transforming Exhaust Into ElectricityScientists have made a breakthrough in harnessing waste heat from combustion engines, creating a device that converts exhaust emissions into usable el

Machine learning tool decodes immune receptor sequences to diagnose multiple diseasesStanford University researchers developed a machine learning-based method capable of diagnosing multiple diseases using B cell and T cell receptor sequences. The model, called Machine learning for Immunological Diagnosis (Mal-ID), distinguished between COVID-19, HIV, lupus, type 1 diabetes, influenza vaccination response, and healthy states, achieving near-perfect classification.

Incredible Discovery Shows Mice Trying to Revive Fallen Companions'Bystander' mice attempt to revive unconscious companions, a new study reveals, suggesting our natural inclination to help others in need runs deep within our mammalian heritage.

Study shows bigger animals get more cancer, defying decades-old beliefElephants, giraffes, pythons and other large species have higher cancer rates than smaller ones like mice, bats, and frogs, a new study has shown, overturning a 45-year-old belief about cancer in the animal kingdom.

Ancient beaches testify to long-ago ocean on MarsA Chinese rover that landed on Mars in 2021 detected evidence of underground beach deposits in an area thought to have once been the site of an ancient sea, providing further evidence that the planet long ago had a large ocean.

Glaciers Worldwide are Melting Faster Causing Sea Levels to Rise MoreAnthropogenic climate change is creating a vicious circle where rising temperatures are causing glaciers to melt at an increasing rate. In addition to contributing to rising sea levels, coastal flooding, and extreme weather, the loss of polar ice and glaciers is causing Earth’s oceans to absorb more solar radiation. The loss of glaciers is also … Continue reading "Glaciers Worldwide are Melting Faster Causing Sea Levels to Rise More"
