Supercomputers just solved a 50-year-old mystery about giant stars

Recent advances in supercomputing have allowed scientists to tackle a long-standing question in astronomy. Researchers have been trying to understand why the chemical makeup at the surface of red giant stars changes as these stars evolve. For many years, scientists struggled to connect what happens deep inside a red giant…

Scientists found a rhino in the Arctic and it changes everything

Researchers from the Canadian Museum of Nature have identified a previously unknown species of extinct rhinoceros from the High Arctic. The remarkably well-preserved fossil skeleton was uncovered in ancient lakebed sediments at Haughton Crater on Devon Island in Nunavut. This find represents the northernmost rhino species ever documented. Rhinoceroses have…

Scientists say NAD+ could slow aging and fight Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s

Researchers from the University of Oslo (UiO), Akershus University Hospital (Ahus), and international collaborators have published a new expert review in Nature Aging. The paper brings together more than 25 scientists, including clinicians and leading experts in aging biology and metabolism, with a strong focus on nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+).…

Insulin pills may soon replace daily injections

For more than 100 years, scientists have pursued the idea of insulin in pill form, often described as a “dream” treatment for diabetes. The challenge has been the body itself. Enzymes in the digestive system break down insulin before it can work, and the intestine lacks a natural way to…

Physicists just turned glass into a powerful quantum security device

As quantum computers grow more powerful, many current encryption methods could eventually become vulnerable. One promising solution is quantum cryptography, which relies on the laws of physics rather than mathematical complexity to keep data secure. However, making quantum communication practical requires small, dependable devices that can accurately read delicate quantum…

New light trap design supercharges atom-thin semiconductors

Atomically thin semiconductors like tungsten disulfide (WS2) are emerging as key materials for next-generation photonic technologies. Even though they are only a single layer of atoms, they can host tightly bound excitons, which are electron and hole pairs that interact strongly with light. These materials can also produce new colors…

A surprising foam discovery could change everyday products

Researchers at Tokyo Metropolitan University have uncovered the real reason liquid drains from foams, resolving a long-standing scientific puzzle. Traditional physics models have consistently overestimated how tall a foam must be before liquid begins to leak out. By closely observing foam behavior, the team found that the key factor is…

DNA reveals two new bass species hidden in plain sight

University of Georgia researchers have identified and formally described two previously unrecognized species of black bass, known as Bartram’s bass and Altamaha bass, in a recently published study. Although the species are only now being officially classified, they have been seen before. Ecologist Bud Freeman first came across Micropterus pucpuggy,…

Sperm whales caught headbutting each other on camera for the first time

Researchers from the University of St Andrews have documented sperm whales striking each other with their heads, capturing the behavior on video and formally describing it for the first time. The finding supports stories from 19th-century sailors who reported whales using their heads to ram and push objects, sometimes even…
