Nuovo scandalo su Farage, trema il partito trumpiano britannico – Europa – Ansa.it

Uno scandalo, l’ennesimo, che dopo mesi di rampante ascesa minaccia di affossare le ambizioni di Nigel Farage e di Reform Uk, partito della destra anti-immigrazione britannica di chiara ispirazione trumpiana. A scuotere la politica isolana è stavolta un’inchiesta-trappola confezionata dal collettivo giornalistico Verbatim, animato da attivisti impegnati nella denuncia dei…

Scientists overturn a theory about this shark’s strange head

A new study of bonnethead sharks (Sphyrna tiburo) in Florida is challenging a previous explanation for how males and females develop their distinctively different head shapes. Researchers from the University of Miami Rosenstiel School of Marine, Atmospheric, and Earth Science and collaborating institutions found that the sharks’ shovel shaped heads…

Harvard scientists turn knitting into shape-shifting smart fabric

Knitting is no longer limited to making familiar items such as sweaters, hats, and blankets. Researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) have shown that conventional knitting techniques can be used to create functional fabrics capable of changing shape, sensing movement, and operating…

Stanford scientists discover a seafood that can reverse signs of aging

Aging often makes itself visible in familiar ways, from gray hair and wrinkles to lapses in memory. That has fueled a longstanding scientific question: Could some of those changes eventually be slowed, prevented, or even reversed? Research involving a group of scientists from Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, Stanford University, Shanghai Jiao…

Extreme drought now covers 44% of Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico typically enters its wet season in May, but 2026 has unfolded very differently. By late August, rainfall had remained scarce across much of the U.S. territory, allowing drought conditions to spread rapidly. The lack of rain has contributed to water shortages and rationing in some communities, prompting Puerto…

MIT turns bacteria into living transistors

MIT researchers have engineered bacteria to work like transistors, creating living “circuit boards” that can be printed onto growth material inside a Petri dish. In conventional electronics, transistors act as switches that control whether electrical current can pass through a circuit. In the MIT system, engineered bacterial cells perform a…

A longer exhale may push your brain toward bolder decisions

A new study suggests that deliberately changing the rhythm of your breathing can influence how you make decisions by altering activity in both the heart and brain. Researchers from the German Institute of Human Nutrition Potsdam-Rehbruecke (DIfE) and Charité — Universitätsmedizin Berlin found that longer exhalations increased heart rate variability…

Giant Greenland iceberg slams into Joe Island and survives

Summer is the busiest time of year for iceberg activity in Greenland’s glacier-fed fjords, and 2026 delivered a particularly dramatic example. In August, a huge iceberg broke away from Petermann Glacier on Greenland’s northwest coast. About the size of St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, it marked the largest…

Dying radio galaxies fade faster than scientists expected

Astronomers have identified a little-studied population of faint remnant radio galaxies that appear to fade quickly after their central supermassive black holes stop producing powerful radio jets. The findings provide a closer look at what happens during the final stages of a radio galaxy’s evolution. Researchers from the University of…

Mattarella: “Si riaffaccia l’uso della forza per le proprie pretese internazionali” – Notizie – Ansa.it

“Per un verso, si amplia repentinamente il novero delle sfide globali la cui soluzione richiede maggiore cooperazione tra gli Stati – dal cambiamento climatico, alle crisi sanitarie pandemiche, dalla disponibilità di risorse energetiche, alimentari e idriche, all’impatto dell’Intelligenza Artificiale. Per l’altro, si affaccia nuovamente una pretesa predatoria delle risorse esistenti,…

Dark matter detector finds a strange signal scientists can’t yet explain

For nearly a century, scientists have been trying to identify dark matter, the invisible material thought to account for about 85% of all matter in the universe. Its gravitational effects can be seen throughout the cosmos, yet no experiment has directly detected the substance itself. Discovering what dark matter is…

Scientists reveal the hidden instructions that build the human brain

Before birth, the human brain is assembled through an enormous series of cellular choices. At the center of this process are radial glia, a special type of stem cell that helps create many of the features that distinguish the human brain. These cells produce large numbers of the neurons and…
