Scientists have developed a fuel cell that uses microbes in soil to produce electricity。 The device can power underground sensors for tasks like monitoring moisture or detecting touch, without needing batteries or solar panels。 It works in both dry and wet conditions and even lasts longer than similar technologies

Engineers at Northwestern University have taken a striking leap toward merging machines with the human brain by printing artificial neurons that can actually communicate with real ones。 These flexible, low-cost devices generate lifelike electrical signals capable of activating living brain cells, a breakthrough demonstrated in mouse brain tissue

Scientists are grappling with a cosmic mystery: why does the Universe behave differently on massive scales compared to our own solar system。 While distant galaxies reveal clear signs of something bending the rules of gravity—often attributed to dark energy or a hidden “fifth force”—everything nearby seems to follow Einstein’s playbook perfectly

Scientists have discovered a way to help the brain clean itself of harmful Alzheimer’s plaques by activating its own support cells。 By increasing a protein called Sox9, researchers were able to boost the activity of astrocytes, star shaped cells that help maintain brain health。 In mice that already showed memory problems, this approach reduced plaq

In a breakthrough experiment, scientists directly imaged how particles pair up in a system that mimics superconductors。 Instead of behaving independently, the pairs moved in a synchronized, dance-like pattern—something never predicted before。 This suggests a major gap in the classic theory of superconductivity

As adult riders report new age-verification checks, the self-driving car company says it’s continuing to “refine” its system in places where kids aren’t allowed to ride alone

Researchers found adjusting AI systems to be more warm and friendly to users would result in an "accuracy trade-off"

Two of the most dangerous fault systems on the U。 West Coast may be more connected than scientists once thought。 New research suggests the Cascadia subduction zone and the San Andreas fault can “sync up,” triggering earthquakes within minutes or hours of each other

A new AI-driven method called GOFLOW is turning weather satellite images into highly detailed maps of ocean currents。 By tracking how temperature patterns shift over time, it can reveal fast-moving, small-scale currents that were previously impossible to observe directly。 These currents are key to understanding climate, marine ecosystems, and carbo

Astronomers have unleashed a powerful new AI tool called RAVEN to comb through data from NASA’s TESS mission—and it’s paying off in a big way。 By analyzing millions of stars, the system has confirmed over 100 exoplanets, including 31 brand-new worlds, and identified thousands more promising candidates。 What makes this especially exciting is the dis

A breakthrough in brain-inspired computing could make today’s energy-hungry AI systems far more efficient。 Researchers have engineered a new nanoelectronic device using a modified form of hafnium oxide that mimics how neurons process and store information at the same time。 Unlike conventional chips that waste energy moving data back and forth, this

A centuries-old vision of a mechanical volcano has finally erupted into reality, as two University of Melbourne engineering students recreated a design first imagined in 1775 by volcanology enthusiast Sir William Hamilton。 Drawing from an 18th-century watercolor and a preserved sketch, they used modern tools like LED lighting and electronic systems

Scientists have created a powerful new way to control quantum systems, achieving the first-ever demonstration of quadsqueezing—an elusive fourth-order quantum effect。 By combining simple forces in a clever way, they made previously hidden quantum behaviors visible and usable, opening new frontiers for quantum technology

The brain’s memory center may begin life more like a crowded web than an empty canvas。 Researchers discovered that early neural networks in the hippocampus are dense and seemingly random, then become more organized by shedding connections over time。 This pruning process creates a faster, more efficient system for linking experiences and forming mem

Scientists have finally cracked one of the biggest mysteries in the senses: how smell is organized。 By mapping millions of neurons in mice, researchers discovered that smell receptors in the nose aren’t random at all—they’re arranged in neat, overlapping stripes based on receptor type, forming a hidden structure scientists never knew existed。 Even

Scientists have pulled off a first: teleporting a photon’s state between two separate quantum dots。 This was done over a 270-meter open-air link, proving quantum information can travel between independent devices。 The achievement marks a key step toward building quantum networks for ultra-secure communication

A major discovery is reshaping how scientists think about catalysts。 Researchers have, for the first time, captured oxygen atoms moving through the interior of a catalyst—not just along its surface。 This reveals that the bulk material can actively participate in reactions, opening a new frontier in catalyst design
