NASA APOD to feature Sun image on August 9, 2026
NASA’s APOD will feature a high-resolution Sun image on August 9, 2026, showing solar activity like sunspots during the Solar Cycle 25 peak. This matters because real-time solar monitoring helps predict space weather th…
Neuroscientists find stress scrambles brain’s GPS in MRI study
Stress impairs navigation by disrupting grid cells in the brain, a study found. This matters because it shows how stress can directly scramble the brain's internal GPS system, affecting spatial mapping.
Researchers find dodo birds had pigeon-level intelligence.
The dodo bird had cognitive abilities similar to modern pigeons and could see well in the dark, challenging its stereotype as dim-witted. This new research highlights the need to study extinct species fully before human…
Winter canola can profit Midwest farmers by $70-$120 per acre while cutting soil erosion by 40% and nitrogen runoff by 25%, fitting into corn-soy rotations wit…
The dodo's brain-to-body ratio and survival traits suggest it was as intelligent as pigeons, contradicting the "stupid" myth. This challenges long-held assumpt…
Getting the recommended 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous exercise each week may offer only modest protection against heart attacks and strokes. A large stud…
A protein that evolved long before the human circulatory system may help unlock stronger cancer treatments. When C3 is produced inside tumors, it blocks immune…
Reduced gravity makes people move slower and less complexly to save energy, as shown in NASA-backed experiments. This matters for astronauts on Moon/Mars missi…
Scientists have created the first quantum material that can sort and transport different quantum states of light at room temperature, potentially removing the …
Scientists have discovered incredibly tiny plasma whirlpools swirling across the Sun’s surface, some just 20 kilometers wide. These previously invisible vortic…
The backlash raises a bigger question for science communicators: where should AI fit into their work?
Changing how much sweet-tasting food people eat may not change how much they crave or enjoy sweetness after all. In a six-month trial, researchers found that p…
Tiny robots, just palm-sized, use magnetic fields to hunt and remove microplastics as small as 0.1mm from soil and water, carrying thousands of particles per t…
Gut cells may detect hunger by measuring their water content, with fluid-rich cells dying faster when food is scarce and triggering stem cells to regenerate th…
