Weight Loss Drug Semaglutide Shows Promise as Alzheimer’s Treatment

Scientists are trying to tackle Alzheimer’s from all angles, and a new study adds to the growing evidence that semaglutide, a widely used diabetes and weight loss drug, could also be beneficial in easing some of the disease’s symptoms. Researchers in China used mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease to investigate the effects of the drug, sold under brand names such as Ozempic […]

Study Finds The Moon Had Active Volcanoes During The Dinosaur Age

New evidence has emerged that volcanoes were active on the Moon far more recently than previously believed. A study published in Science reveals that the Moon experienced volcanic eruptions as late as 120 million years ago, coinciding with the time of Earth’s dinosaurs. This discovery stems from the analysis of glass beads collected by China’s Chang’e-5 lunar mission in

Meteorite That Recently Fell in Somalia Turns Out to Contain Two Minerals Never Before Seen on Earth

A giant meteorite that fell in Somalia in 2020 contains at least two minerals that have never before been seen on our planet. The minerals have been identified by researchers at the University of Alberta, according to a press release. Tons of space material enters the Earth’s atmosphere every day but very few actually survive the

A Second Interstellar Visitor Has Arrived in Our Solar System. This Time, Astronomers Think They Know Where It Came From

When ‘Oumuamua passed through our solar system in 2017, no one knew where it came from. Astronomers, on the other hand, think they know how Comet 2I/Borisov got here. Astronomers have found an object from outside our solar system flying through it for the second time in history. But scientists think they know where it

Lightning Over Shipping Lanes Suddenly Halved Following New Regulations

If you look at a map of lightning near the Port of Singapore, you’ll notice an odd streak of intense lightning activity right over the busiest shipping lane in the world. As it turns out, the lightning really is responding to the ships, or rather the tiny particles they emit.Using data from a global lightning detection network, my colleagues

World First: Man Leaves Hospital With Life-Saving Titanium Heart

In early February, an Australian man in his 40s became the first person in the world to leave hospital with a virtually unbreakable heart made of metal. ‘Beating’ in his chest was a titanium pump about the size of a fist. For 105 days, the metal organ’s levitating propeller pushed blood to the man’s lungs

Scientists May have Just Discovered 300 of the Rarest Black Holes in the Universe

How black holes grow to monstrous scales is one of astronomy’s prevailing enigmas. A new record-breaking dataset, which reveals 300 potential ‘missing link black holes’, could help to unravel it.Astronomers have used the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) to discover a treasure trove of black holes, many of which are rare “missing links” in the cosmic monsters’
