Deer keds rely on flight and vision to find a host, but everything changes once they land。 After shedding their wings forever, these parasites reduce the activity of key vision-related genes by about half。 Scientists believe they are effectively trading sharp eyesight for extra energy that can be used for feeding and reproduction
Scientists have developed an experimental diabetes and obesity pill that works in a completely different way from drugs like Ozempic。 Rather than reducing hunger, it activates metabolism in skeletal muscle, helping lower blood sugar and increase fat burning while preserving muscle mass。 Early clinical results suggest the treatment is safe and well
Unjected and PureBlood。Dating are hosting in-person meetups—and have transformed the dating landscape into a political battleground over bodily autonomy
What’s the difference between a person, an artifact, and an ecosystem
A team at the University of Chicago has discovered a surprisingly simple way to create powerful quantum states that are normally difficult to produce。 By making small adjustments to the energy levels of atoms inside an optical cavity, researchers can generate a wide variety of highly entangled states without adding complicated hardware
Scientists have proposed a new method for finding tightly bound supermassive black hole pairs by searching for stars that flash repeatedly as their light is magnified by the black holes’ gravity。 The timing and brightness of these bursts could provide a unique fingerprint of black holes slowly spiraling toward a future collision
The reactor, from a startup called Antares, isn't ready to generate power yet
A remarkable crystal called molybdenum oxychloride could help make futuristic technologies like smart contact lenses and ultrathin AR glasses a reality。 Scientists have created the first detailed experimental map of its optical properties, revealing the strongest light-bending effect ever measured in a natural material。 The crystal can act either l
How accurate does an AI system need to be
Those ousted included ADA journal editor-in-chief Steven Kahn and former ADA president Desmond Schatz
NASA’s Fermi telescope has detected what may be the first confirmed gamma-ray signal from a superluminous supernova — one of the most extreme explosions in the universe。 Scientists believe the blast was powered by a rapidly spinning magnetar, an exotic neutron star with unbelievably strong magnetic fields。 The event, called SN 2017egm, erupted 440
In the end, the three companies involved all point the finger at each other
Seller of the Sound Blaster Katana V2X doesn't consider the behavior a vulnerability
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
Astronomers have finally cracked the mystery behind a strange class of repeating cosmic signals that has baffled scientists for years。 Using Australia’s ASKAP radio telescope, researchers traced the bursts to a rare stellar duo in which a dense white dwarf is relentlessly siphoning material from a nearby red dwarf companion。 As the stolen matter sp
Robot demonstrations can distort public perceptions of robotic capabilities
The Air succeeds as a minimalist, reliable fitness tracker, but Google's AI Health Coach feels unnecessary
Scientists have developed a solar desalination system that turns seawater into drinking water without creating environmentally damaging brine。 Special laser-textured metal panels use sunlight to evaporate water while automatically moving salt deposits away from the working surface, preventing clogging。 The process was successfully tested with water
SpaceX won’t get easy access to billions of dollars from passive investors
“Why don’t we just frickin’ call Apple
