NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered unusual chemistry in interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, including the first direct detection of methane on a visitor from another star system。 The comet also contains exceptionally high levels of carbon dioxide, making it unlike most comets born in our solar system。 Scientists believe the methane was hidden
Scientists examining amber from Goethe’s personal collection discovered three hidden fossil insects, including an extinct ant preserved in extraordinary detail。 Advanced 3D imaging allowed researchers to see not only the ant’s outer features but also structures inside its body。 The findings offer new clues about the species’ biology and suggest it
A lightweight new X-ray telescope could finally give scientists something they’ve never had before: a complete chemical map of the Moon。 Researchers used detailed mission simulations to show that a compact telescope orbiting the Moon could identify key elements across the entire lunar surface, helping reveal how the Moon formed and evolved
Scientists have successfully tested an AI-designed universal coronavirus vaccine in humans for the first time, finding it to be safe and well tolerated。 The vaccine generated immune responses against multiple coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2, SARS, and related bat viruses with pandemic potential。 By targeting features shared across an entire vir
A San Francisco start-up called Arena found that people are most likely to use A。 agents on the job, particularly if they are in the tech industry
A team at the University of Minnesota discovered that changing a metal film's thickness by just a few nanometers can dramatically alter how it behaves electronically。 The finding reveals a surprising new way to control metals and could help power future advances in electronics, catalysis, and quantum technology
June's night sky delivers several must-see events, starting with a close encounter between Venus and Jupiter after sunset。 Mercury joins the pair to form a rare three-planet lineup, while the Moon puts on a special show by passing in front of Venus for viewers in parts of the Americas。 The month also marks the start of astronomical summer and the r
Hidden beneath Arctic waters, beluga whales have long kept their family lives a mystery。 By analyzing DNA from more than 600 belugas in Alaska’s Bristol Bay over 13 years, researchers uncovered a surprisingly flexible mating system: both males and females regularly have offspring with different partners over their lifetimes
Octopuses may be even smarter than we thought。 Researchers at Dartmouth found that octopuses can learn to use mirrors to locate food hidden behind them—a skill previously seen only in vertebrates like mammals and birds。 After training, the animals correctly identified the food’s location about 73% of the time, showing they could use a mirror as a t
Unjected and PureBlood。Dating are hosting in-person meetups—and have transformed the dating landscape into a political battleground over bodily autonomy
From talking about sex with JFK Jr。 to a surprise show in Times Square, the queen of pop is leveraging Grindr’s “gayborhood” to sell her new album
As the conflict in Iran disrupts the world’s oil supply, airlines are looking for jet fuel alternatives。 The answer: energy from used cooking oil and french fry grease
I tried all the top models to find the best 3-in-1 Apple charging stations, pads, and more。 Keep your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods topped up with these WIRED-tested docking systems
The actual eco-friendliness of ecotourism varies considerably。 One research station in the Peruvian Amazon is out to prove it can bring visitors to the area without disrupting the environment
The world’s most valuable company is chasing Intel and Apple as it tries to bring A。 agents to laptops and desktops
Researchers have discovered how microscopic imperfections and atomic vibrations can be used to control a powerful quantum effect in an advanced material。 The effect can turn alternating electrical signals from the environment directly into the kind of current electronic devices need, without traditional components。 As temperature changes, the signa
An ancient mountain cave in the Pyrenees may have served as one of the earliest high-altitude mining camps ever discovered, with evidence of repeated visits spanning thousands of years。 The find becomes even more intriguing with the discovery of a child’s remains and clues that deeper excavations could uncover prehistoric burials
Ofqual chief says invigilators are being trained to detect devices like smart glasses and hidden earpieces
For decades, pancreatic cancer has been one of the most lethal cancers, with few effective treatment options。 A new drug, daraxonrasib, targets the KRAS mutation that fuels most pancreatic tumors—something many scientists once thought couldn't be done。 In a major clinical trial, the treatment nearly doubled survival for patients with advanced disea
New research examines how a Chinese company struggled to develop its predictive surveillance technology while U。 restrictions were in place
