A record-breaking X-ray flash may reveal the birth of a magnetar

Astronomers have long relied on brief bursts of gamma rays to identify collisions between neutron stars. These flashes can vanish in less than two seconds. Now, new research suggests that some neutron star mergers may also produce X-ray flashes that remain visible for several minutes. A study published in Science…

Ocean heatwaves are hiding months of extra warming

Anyone who has ever heated a pot of water knows that temperature depends on more than how hot something gets. Time matters too. Yet marine heatwaves (MHWs) have traditionally been studied as distinct events with clearly defined beginnings and endings. New research led by William & Mary’s VIMS & Batten…

Mulberry may reshape gut bacteria and influence metabolism

Mulberry has been eaten as food and used in traditional medicine for centuries. Now, researchers are examining whether compounds in the plant can alter the gut microbiota and, in turn, affect metabolism. A review involving scientists from Wroclaw Medical University suggests that the results may depend heavily on the mulberry…

NASA's Perseverance Mars rover finds groundwater, lakes, and hot fluids in one place

A new study suggests that Jezero Crater’s mysterious “Margin Unit” records a far more complicated history of water than scientists expected, involving ancient lakes, groundwater, and later hydrothermal activity. When NASA’s Perseverance rover arrived at the inner rim of Mars’ Jezero Crater in September 2023, researchers expected to encounter sedimentary…

Black hole jets may decide the fate of entire galaxies

Galaxies can contain hundreds of billions of stars, but every one of those stars begins with cold, dense gas. Large galaxies, including the Milky Way, are surrounded by an enormous reservoir of this material known as the circumgalactic medium, or CGM. The CGM extends roughly 10-20 times farther than the…

Bats may have first evolved in Europe 65 million years ago

New research is reshaping scientists’ understanding of bat evolution, with evidence suggesting that bats most likely originated in Europe during the late Paleocene, roughly 65 to 60 million years ago. For decades, researchers have debated where bats first appeared. Africa, Asia, and North America have all been proposed as possible…

Sharks can hear nearly 250 feet away and pinpoint the source

The ocean is filled with sound, and for sharks, those sounds can reveal what is happening well beyond their field of view. Noise produced by prey, predators, and other animals may provide important information about the surrounding environment. Yet scientists have had little direct evidence showing just how far a…

Creatine may help build muscle even without exercise, researchers find

Creatine is widely known for helping support muscle growth and athletic performance, but researchers are increasingly examining whether its benefits extend well beyond the gym. New findings from Texas A&M University suggest creatine may be particularly useful in middle age, when preserving muscle becomes increasingly important. In a 12-week study…
