A stunning fossil discovery shows that ancient bees used the empty tooth sockets of mammal bones as tiny nests after owls scattered the bones across a cave floor 20,000 years ago。 It's the first known evidence of bees nesting inside animal bones, revealing an astonishingly creative survival strategy

Hawaii researchers are giving old fishing nets and recycled plastic a second life by mixing them into asphalt roads。 Early tests found these roads didn't release more plastic particles than standard pavement, with tire wear overwhelming any plastic signal from the recycled material。 If future studies confirm the roads are durable, the technology co
NASA’s upgraded Cold Atom Lab is turning the International Space Station into a frontier for quantum research, creating ultra-cold matter that behaves in astonishing ways。 The experiments could unlock new discoveries about the universe while paving the way for powerful future technologies in space and on Earth
For decades, scientists thought royal jelly was the secret ingredient that turned an ordinary honeybee larva into a queen。 New research reveals the process is far more remarkable: young worker bees create special “royal cribs” made from customized wax, carefully regulate warmth and humidity, and dedicate entire teams of attendants to raising future
The global cobalt supply chain is more interconnected—and more vulnerable—than previously thought, with disruptions capable of triggering far-reaching cascades across multiple countries and industries。 Researchers warn that protecting battery supply chains will require system-wide coordination because critical bottlenecks can turn local shocks into
A surprising discovery is overturning a long-held assumption about how the brain’s movement center works。 Researchers found that two key cerebellar cell types—thought to be tightly linked—often don’t behave in predictable ways, even though one directly influences the other。 The finding suggests scientists may have been relying on the wrong signals
A major breakthrough in quantum technology has turned magnons, tiny magnetic waves once considered too short-lived for practical use, into promising carriers of quantum information。 Researchers extended their lifetime by nearly 100 times, reaching up to 18 microseconds, and discovered that the main limitation is not a law of physics but the purity
Ancient asteroid impacts may have done more than reshape Earth's surface—they could have helped spark life itself。 New computer models show the collisions created enormous underground hydrothermal systems by cracking the planet's crust and allowing hot water to flow through it。 These long-lasting, life-friendly environments may have covered much of
The Torifune asteroid turns out to be shaped like a peanut
