Crushing soda cans for science, why dolphins swim so fast, how urine helps mushrooms communicate, and more
Dinosaur DNA may still be out of reach, but scientists are uncovering something almost as exciting—ancient blood vessels hidden inside fossilized bones。 In a massive Tyrannosaurus rex nicknamed Scotty, researchers discovered a network of preserved vessels within a rib that once fractured and began healing 66 million years ago。 Using powerful synchr
A key protein involved in fat metabolism has been found to do more than scientists once thought。 Instead of just releasing fat, it helps maintain healthy fat tissue and balance in the body。 When it’s missing or disrupted, the results can be surprisingly harmful
At WIRED Health, pioneering Alzheimer's researcher John Hardy outlined the stakes—and next steps—of where treatment is headed next
Scientists have discovered unexpected water-ice clouds on a distant, Jupiter-like exoplanet, challenging current atmospheric models。 By directly imaging Epsilon Indi Ab with the James Webb Space Telescope, they found less ammonia than expected—likely hidden by thick, patchy clouds。 The finding reveals new layers of complexity in giant planets and s

For decades, psychologists have debated whether the human mind can be explained by one unified theory or must be broken into separate parts like memory and attention。 A recent AI model called Centaur seemed to offer a breakthrough, claiming it could mimic human thinking across 160 different cognitive tasks。 But new research is challenging that bold
AI-powered personas are becoming so realistic that they can infiltrate online communities and subtly steer public opinion。 Unlike traditional bots, they adapt, coordinate, and refine their messaging at a massive scale, creating a false sense of consensus。 Early warning signs—like deepfakes and fake news networks—have already appeared in global elec
Quantum physics once shocked scientists by revealing that particles can behave like waves—and now, that strange behavior has been pushed even further。 For the first time, researchers have observed wave-like interference in positronium, an exotic “atom” made of an electron and its antimatter partner, a positron。 This breakthrough not only strengthen
A major physics experiment has uncovered evidence for a strange new form of matter, where a fleeting particle gets trapped inside a nucleus。 This exotic state may reveal how mass is generated, suggesting that particles can weigh less when surrounded by dense nuclear matter。 The findings support long-standing theories about how the vacuum of space i
Physicists have taken a major step toward using AI not just to analyze data, but to uncover entirely new laws of nature。 By combining a specially designed neural network with precise 3D tracking of particles in a dusty plasma—a strange “fourth state of matter” found from space to wildfires—the team revealed hidden patterns in how particles interact
Overtuning can cause models to "prioritize user satisfaction over truthfulness

In the chaotic first moments after the Big Bang, ripples in spacetime may have done more than just echo through the cosmos—they could have helped create dark matter itself。 New research suggests that faint, ancient gravitational waves might have transformed into particles that eventually became the invisible substance shaping galaxies today
A spectacular cosmic event nicknamed “SN Winny” could help solve one of astronomy’s biggest mysteries: how fast the universe is expanding。 This rare superluminous supernova, located 10 billion light-years away, appears five times in the sky thanks to gravitational lensing, creating a dazzling “cosmic fireworks” effect。 By measuring the slight delay
A massive cosmic milestone has just been reached: scientists have completed the largest high-resolution 3D map of the universe ever created。 Built using data from over 47 million galaxies and quasars, this map could unlock new clues about dark energy—the mysterious force driving the universe’s expansion。 Despite setbacks like wildfire disruptions,
A group of undergraduate students pulled off something remarkable: they built their own dark matter detector and used it to probe one of physics’ biggest mysteries。 Working with limited resources but plenty of creativity, they designed a stripped-down experiment to hunt for axions — hypothetical particles that could make up dark matter
