The study uses bacteria to bring scientists closer to building these artificial lifelike cells. Researchers have used bacteria to help develop advanced synthetic cells that…
While the magma supplying super-eruptions develops over long periods of time, the magma disturbs the crust and then erupts in a matter of decades. Super-eruptions…
A well-preserved fossilized worm dating from 518-million-years-ago resembles the ancestor of three major groups of living animals. An international team of scientists has discovered that…
