The Siler collingwoodi, a jumping spider species, uses camouflage and ant-mimicry as defenses against predators, blending with plants and adopting ant-like movement to evade spider…
The plan will keep Voyager 2’s science instruments turned on a few years longer than previously anticipated, enabling yet more revelations from interstellar space. Launched…
The first results from the James Webb Space Telescope have hinted at galaxies so early and so massive that they are in tension with our…
Researchers Troels Arbøll and Sophie Rasmussen have explored the historical impact of romantic-sexual kissing on the spread of orally transmitted diseases like HSV-1. Contradicting the…
New discovery could revolutionize how all vaccines could be made to be longer lasting. Researchers from Monash University have discovered that the key to long-lasting…
University of Cambridge scientists have developed an ‘artificial leaf’ that, powered by sunlight, converts CO2 and water into ethanol and propanol. This innovation eliminates the…
New model for human evolution suggests Homo sapiens arose from multiple closely related populations. A new study in Nature challenges prevailing theories, suggesting that Homo…
“Our brain continues to develop longer than we thought,” states Ph.D. student Dorien van Blooijs. According to recent findings from the University Medical Center Utrecht…
Scientists have identified weak, biologically-rich sediments beneath Antarctica’s seafloor as the cause of giant underwater landslides that could generate far-reaching tsunamis. These sediments formed in…
Chromosome analysis resolves debate about sister group of all animals. It’s comb jellies, not sponges. Researchers used a novel chromosome-based approach to reveal that comb…
Today the Expedition 69 ISS crew conducted various science experiments, prepared for the Ax-2 private mission, maintained lab systems, and practiced emergency protocols. The Expedition…
Astronomers have discovered an Earth-sized exoplanet, LP 791-18 d, believed to be highly volcanic. The planet’s volcanic activity could sustain an atmosphere potentially allowing for…
Kelvin waves, a potential precursor of El Niño conditions in the ocean, are rolling across the equatorial Pacific toward the coast of South America. Sentinel-6…
Potential future prevention strategies may focus on addressing the treatment of the placenta. A new study conducted by the Lieber Institute for Brain Development suggests…
Evidence left in rocks is leading scientists to rethink what watery environments looked like on ancient Mars. New images from NASA’s Perseverance rover reveal evidence…
