What looked like a mysterious exoplanet was actually the sparkling debris from a violent collision between massive space rocks. Even more astonishing, astronomers watched a second collision unfold in the same system, revealing a surprisingly chaotic neighborhood where new worlds مزید پڑھیں
A new study shows that promising single-crystal battery materials degrade for reasons scientists hadn’t fully recognized before. Scientists at Argonne National Laboratory and the UChicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering have identified the source of a long-standing problem in battery مزید پڑھیں
A research team developed two flavor-enhancing techniques that transform carob pulp into a delicious, sustainable alternative to cocoa. Rising temperatures and the spread of crop diseases are placing increasing pressure on the global supply of cocoa. In response to these مزید پڑھیں
Earthquakes may be unpredictable, but their impacts are not entirely mysterious. New modeling techniques are offering a clearer view beneath the surface. On Saturday, December 6, 2025, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Alaska. Events of this size are relatively rare, مزید پڑھیں
Researchers have mapped the molecular changes that unfold as sunlight causes plastics to leach dissolved organic matter, findings that could reshape understanding of ecosystem health, water quality, and global carbon cycling. Scientists have found that microplastics drifting through rivers, lakes, مزید پڑھیں
Princeton scientists found that the brain uses reusable “cognitive blocks” to create new behaviors quickly. Artificial intelligence can now produce acclaimed essays and support medical diagnoses with impressive precision, yet biological brains still outperform machines in one essential area: flexibility. مزید پڑھیں
Scientists have uncovered evidence of a colossal shark that lived off northern Australia about 115 million years ago, revealing that modern shark lineages grew to immense sizes far earlier than expected. Rare vertebrae from rocks once part of the ancient مزید پڑھیں
International Discovery co-led by UMass Amherst offers strong potential to address three major global challenges: a growing population, the effects of climate change, and the increasing economic and environmental pressures facing agriculture. Rice cultivation, which supports more than 3.5 billion مزید پڑھیں
Research has overturned decades of uncertainty by showing that Nanotyrannus was a fully grown predator, not a juvenile T. rex. Paleontologists have debated whether the single skull used to define the species Nanotyrannus belonged to a separate dinosaur or represented مزید پڑھیں
