Scientists Investigate Whether NASA’s Approaching Object Is The Core Of A Ruined Earth

Scientists Investigate Whether NASA's Approaching Object Is The Core Of A Ruined Earth

Sign up to see the future, today I can’t miss the innovations from the edge of science and technology Scientists have long been intrigued by a large potato-shaped asteroid, called 16 Psyche, which they suspect is rich in iron – so it could be very lucrative for future asteroid mining. The 173-kilometer object, which orbits … Read more

April’s full moon decides the date of Easter – here’s how it works

A full moon shines on a dark pink background over the ocean with grass-covered dunes in the foreground.

The first full moon of the year appears on April 1 and plays an important role in setting the date of Easter. The official time the moon will be full is 10:12 pm EDT. Interestingly, once the full moon arrives, its position in the sky will make it about twelve degrees south-east of the inhabited … Read more

The long time of Artemis II – space historian explains why it took more than 50 years to return to the Moon.

While visiting the National Air and Space Museum in January 2026, a visitor asked this insightful question: “Why did it take so long to return to the Moon?” After all, NASA had the knowledge and technology to send humans to the moon more than 50 years ago as part of the Apollo program. And, as … Read more

We Finally Know How the Lights Were Lighted at the Dawn of Time

We may finally know what created the cosmic rhythms in the early Universe. According to information from the Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes, the origin of free-flying photons in the early universe were small clusters of young stars that burst into life, removing the fog of smooth hydrogen that filled the interstellar space. A … Read more

Collaboration between Tasso and Parkinson's Foundation Reveals New Genetic Facts

PD GENEration has more than 30,000 participants, showing the genetic variants associated with Parkinson’s disease may be more common than previously reported. The collaboration expands participation in Parkinson’s genetic research by collecting variable, patient-specific blood. NEW YORK & MIAMI & SETTLE, March 31, 2026–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Parkinson’s Foundation today announced that more than 30,000 people with … Read more

New genetic mapping improves optimal treatment for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Molecular staging of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA)

picture: To address this challenge, the team identified low-intratumor heterogeneity/high-intertumor variability (LIHV) genes. This signature of 1,341 genes targets markers that remain consistent within a human tumor but vary greatly between patients. By filtering out the discrepant “noise”, the LIHV design enables a robust and reproducible classification of iCCA into five molecular subtypes, each associated … Read more

If you thought that the current crop of satellite megaconstellations was bad, you will be very disappointed by the new proposals from SpaceX and a company called Reflect Orbital. Their joint projects would change the night sky as we know it, and the world’s astronomical community is crying – especially letters from the Royal Astronomical … Read more

BRICS Vision 2026: Using new technologies for water security

Water (representational image)

India assumed the presidency of BRICS on January 1, 2026 at a time of intense global turmoil. The international system is under pressure from political fragmentation, climate disruption, and growing inequality in access to critical resources. For the Global South in particular, these pressures are not trivial—they manifest themselves every day in water stress, food … Read more

Scientists Have Just Discovered An Important Element Hidden In Water Before It Freezes

Heat chart

As water cools, its behavior becomes more surprising from a physics point of view, and researchers looking for an explanation have discovered something new: a previously hidden “point” that appears in supercooled water that doesn’t freeze. By varying pressure and temperature, scientists can keep liquid water below the normal ice surface. Previous studies have shown … Read more

Gynecological cancer screening: From professional to private

Gynecological cancer screening: From professional to private

Article produced in partnership with Jeen Health and Spital Clinic Genetic testing for cancer risk in women, much of its medical history, is only available through a referral that includes a GP, a clinical genetic panel and family history testing that meets certain risk factors. The advent of directly accessible private tests has changed this … Read more
