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), […]
From one perspective, the Sun is a benevolent orb of plasma and its warmth makes Earth habitable and has kept if habitable for billions of years, allowing complex things like human beings to evolve. From another perspective, it’s a malevolent orb that sends deadly UV radiation our way, and sometimes erupts and hurls massive blobs

Emergency vaccination during outbreaks of diseases like cholera, Ebola and measles have over the past quarter-century reduced deaths from such illnesses by nearly 60 percent, according to a new study. A similar number of infections are also believed to have been prevented, while billions of euros have been generated in estimated economic benefit. The Gavi vaccine alliance,

Perseverance is hitting the ‘open road’ on Mars like no other rover. On June 19, the six-wheeled explorer officially completed the longest road trip of any robot vehicle on another planet. In a single drive, the rover rolled over 411 meters of Mars‘ rocky surface (more than a quarter mile).That may not sound like much, but compared to Curiosity and Opportunity, which

The Tunguska asteroid was likely as wide as a football stadium—656 feet (200 meters). Key Takeaways The Tunguska Mystery: New Insights On June 30, 1908, a massive explosion devastated over 800 square miles of Siberian forest near the Tunguska River. The blast, which leveled millions of trees, left no crater or visible remnants, baffling scientists

Key takeaways: The dinosaur-killing asteroid sparked nearly two years of darkness on Earth, halting photosynthesis. The Asteroid Impact and Its Lasting Darkness The asteroid impact that wiped out most dinosaurs 66 million years ago didn’t just cause immediate devastation; it also triggered nearly two years of global darkness. According to findings presented by scientists from
And luckily for us, quantum physicists think they know how to reach that higher dimension. Key Takeaways: ___________ Interstellar travel could become a reality, but only if we can harness higher dimensions beyond our three-dimensional experience, scientists suggest. Recent theories propose that wormholes—spacetime shortcuts—might allow humans to traverse vast cosmic distances, connecting different parts of

Reversing Time with Light Physicists at the City University of New York have achieved a significant breakthrough in the field of wave physics by demonstrating “time reflections” with light. In a process long considered purely theoretical, researchers managed to make light waves travel backward in time using metamaterials—special materials with tunable optical properties. Led by
Professor Brian Cox has been back to his hometown Oldham to inspire the next generation of scientists. The University of Manchester alumnus, who also had a successful music career in the 1980s and 1990s with the bands Dare and D:Ream, visited St Matthew’s Primary School where he was once a pupil to give the children

Key takeaways: Gold particles smashed at the LHC hit a scorching 7.2 trillion degrees Fahrenheit, hotter than a supernova. Heat affects every atom in the universe, with particles vibrating faster as temperatures rise. The colder it gets, the slower they move, eventually stopping altogether at absolute zero (-273°C or 0 Kelvin). But how hot can
