Sleeping well during a heatwave starts with stopping the home from overheating。 Close blinds against strong sunlight, ventilate when the air outside becomes cooler, and avoid using heat-producing appliances during the hottest hours。 Moving to a cooler room, choosing light bedding and using fans or ice packs safely can also make hot nights more mana
A new analysis has precisely dated paintings in France’s Font-de-Gaume cave for the first time。 Scientists discovered charcoal inside black pigments once thought to contain only minerals, allowing them to use radiocarbon dating。 The results show that a bison was painted about 13,000 years ago, while sections of a mask-like figure were added during
Sweden could become an important source of rare earth elements needed for magnets and green technologies。 Instead of extracting one target metal, researchers are cataloging everything contained in Swedish mineral deposits。 They will then develop magnets using those naturally available combinations, potentially reducing pollution, waste, and relianc
Signals traveling from the gut to the brain may help turn meals into lasting memories。 Rats showed stronger memory activity after consuming nutritious foods, but not after drinking sweet liquids with little or no nutritional value。 Blocking the vagus nerve erased this effect and made it harder for the animals to remember where food had been located
MIT engineers have found a way to give chip-based lidar a wider, clearer view without relying on moving parts。 Their design uses differently shaped antennas that can sit close together without scrambling one another’s signals。 In tests, the system sharply reduced interference while steering a single precise beam across a broad field of view
Astronomers may have been listening for alien civilizations in only a small slice of the radio spectrum while overlooking a largely unexplored range of higher frequencies。 Using archived data from the ALMA telescope in Chile, researchers conducted the observatory’s first SETI survey, searching for narrow signals that could indicate advanced technol
A new cooking method could make French fries crispier in less time while significantly limiting how much oil they absorb。 Researchers propose combining microwave heating, which keeps oil out, with conventional frying, which provides the crunch consumers expect
Ultrafast X-rays revealed how a molecule converts absorbed light into motion in just trillionths of a second。 Individual atoms recorded different stages of the process, opening a powerful new window into light-driven chemistry
A new analysis suggests the Sun holds far more silver than earlier estimates indicated。 More advanced models of the solar atmosphere raised the calculated amount by 55 percent, bringing it into much closer agreement with ancient meteorites。 The technique may also help scientists track the cosmic origins of silver and other heavy elements
More than 150 years after Darwin’s finches helped reshape biology, Galápagos plants are exposing another evolutionary surprise。 Giant daisies repeatedly developed similar heat-tolerant leaf shapes, but each lineage used a different combination of genes。 Researchers also found major genetic differences among isolated populations, suggesting new spec

This week on Uncanny Valley, we discuss the open- vs。 closed-source debate in AI, key players in White House AI policy, and how to stop your chatbot logs from showing up in search-engine results
NASA astronaut Chris Williams and two Roscosmos cosmonauts are back on Earth after spending 241 days aboard the International Space Station。 Their journey covered more than 102 million miles and included 3,856 trips around the planet
