Humans Felt The Effects of Weird Space Weather 41,000 Years Ago

Our first meeting was a bit awkward. One of us is an archaeologist who studies how past peoples interacted with their environments. Two of us are geophysicists who investigate interactions between solar activity and Earth’s magnetic field. When we first got together, we wondered whether our unconventional project, linking space weather and human behavior, could actually bridge such a vast disciplinary divide. Now, two […]

Confirmed: Uranus Really Is Hotter Than It Has Any Right to Be

A new analysis of decades’ worth of observations has revealed that Uranus does indeed emit more heat than it receives from the rays of the Sun. This conclusion, arrived at by two independent teams of scientists, finally resolves a puzzle that first emerged when Voyager 2 cruised past the stinky planet all the way back in 1986. Those observations

Psilocybin Extends Life of Human Cells by 50% in Wild New Study

Psilocybin‘s health benefits could extend beyond the mental realm. A new study in human cells and mice has found the first experimental evidence that the compound can increase longevity and fight signs of aging. Being a psychedelic, psilocybin is usually investigated for its potential as a treatment for depression, anxiety, and other neurological disorders. But there hasn’t been

Scientists Find 2 Existing Drugs Can Reverse Alzheimer’s Brain Damage in Mice

In efforts to beat Alzheimer’s disease, researchers are looking at existing drugs that could tackle the condition, and a new study identifies two promising candidates that are currently used to treat cancer. Already approved by regulators in the US – meaning potential clinical trials for Alzheimer’s could start sooner – the drugs are letrozole (usually used to treat breast cancer) and irinotecan (usually used

Record-Sized Collision Between Black Holes Detected by Astronomers

Two black holes have collided in a merger that could revolutionize our understanding of black hole growth. Named GW 231123 after the date it was recorded on 23 November 2023, it’s the most massive black hole collision we’ve seen yet, resulting in an object heavier than 225 Suns. Previously, the most massive black hole collision produced an object 142 times the mass of

Study of 1.2 Million Children Finds No Risk From Common Vaccine Additive

A massive, 24-year-long study of more than 1.2 million children provides reassurance to parents around the world. The research has found no compelling evidence that childhood vaccines lead to autism, asthma, or dozens of other chronic disorders. Researchers in Denmark examined the safety of a specific vaccine ingredient – aluminum salts – which, despite frequent debunking, remains a common

Birth of a Solar System Witnessed in Spectacular Scientific First

Around a Sun-like star just 1,300 light-years away, a family of planets has been seen in its earliest moments of conception. Astronomers analyzed the infrared flow of dust and detritus left over from the formation of a baby star called HOPS-315, finding tiny concentrations of hot minerals that will eventually form planetesimals – the ‘seeds’ around

Measles Can Erase Your Immune System’s Memory, Expert Says

Blindness, pneumonia, severe diarrhoea and even death – measles virus infections, especially in children, can have devastating consequences. Fortunately, we have a safe and effective defence. Measles vaccines are estimated to have averted more than 60 million deaths between 2000 and 2023. Yet despite this success, measles cases are rising sharply in the UK and around the world. This global surge is

Virus Traces Discovered in The Brain Lining of People With Schizophrenia

The hepatitis C virus (HCV) may play a role in mental health disorders such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depression, according to a new study. Experts have long noted links between these psychiatric disorders and certain viral infections, but direct evidence of the viruses inside human brains is lacking. In the brain’s protective lining, however, the new study found traces of 13 different

Scientists May Have Just Found Evidence For Previous Universes That Existed Before Our Own

Key Takeaways: ________ Evidence of black hole remnants from previous universes may be hiding in the cosmic microwave background. Recent research suggests that black holes from a prior universe might have left detectable imprints in our own universe’s cosmic microwave background (CMB). This concept is rooted in a fascinating theory called “conformal cyclic cosmology” (CCC),
