Harvard Emergency Briefing After Shocking Discovery About 3I/ATLAS The halls of Harvard University are no strangers to groundbreaking scientific announcements. From revolutions in physics to new understandings of the cosmos, the institution has long been a center of discovery. But earlier this week, Harvard officials called an emergency scientific briefing unlike any in recent memory. […]

In a twist worthy of a sci-fi thriller, rumors and speculative reports have begun to circulate: a gargantuan interstellar intruder, claimed to be up to 100 times more massive than the already enigmatic 3I/ATLAS, is supposedly entering our solar system — and, in a dramatic twist, appears to be “hunting” or trailing 3I/ATLAS. While this

The Relativistic Heavy Ion Accelerator (RHIC), from the Brookhaven Laboratory in the United States, is a sophisticated device capable of accelerating gold ions to a speed of up to 99.995% that of light. Thanks to him, it has recently been possible to verify, for example, Einstein’s famous equation E=mc2. Now, researchers in this laboratory have shown how

Brain damage caused by blocked blood vessels may be treatable using injections of stem cells, according to a new study by researchers from the University of Zurich and the University of Southern California. The results could one day help patients who have experienced some forms of stroke recover lost functions. Using mice with stroke-induced brain damage,

Scientists are making significant strides forward in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, and a newly developed system can translate our thoughts into text or sound. It’s essentially an inner speech decoder, developed by researchers from institutions across the US. In tests on four volunteers with severe paralysis, the decoder hit an accuracy rate of up to 74 percent

For decades, astronomers have searched for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence using radio telescopes and optical instruments, scanning the skies for artificial signals. Now, researchers are taking a different approach, this time looking much closer to home for alien artefacts that might already be in our Solar System. A new study published in Monthly Notices of the

United Launch Alliance’s (ULA) new Vulcan Centaur rocket will conduct its first-ever national security launch next week, if all goes according to plan. ULA announced on Tuesday (Aug. 5) that it’s targeting Aug. 12 for USSF-106, a U.S. Space Force mission that will lift off from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. “This is the first national

A small, retrospective study in a part of Utah known for poor air quality retraced pollution exposure levels in patients hospitalized for brain bleeds, finding a potential link. “We found that these patients were experiencing higher rates of aneurysmal rupture three to six months after peaks in air pollution levels,” University of Utah neurosurgeon Robert
