The galaxy’s coldest “stars” may actually be alien megastructures

Since physicist Freeman Dyson first proposed the idea in 1960, the hypothetical “Dyson sphere” has become one of the most intriguing concepts in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Rather than a single solid shell, scientists now envision a Dyson “swarm” made up of countless orbiting structures that capture nearly all…

New MRI breakthrough reveals the brain and eye like never before

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most valuable tools doctors use to diagnose disease. Yet even with today’s advanced scanners, producing clear images of some areas remains difficult. Deep brain structures and the delicate tissues of the eye and surrounding orbit are especially challenging because of the hardware…
