The race to build data centers in space is gaining momentum as AI drives unprecedented demand for computing power。 Orbital facilities could tap into abundant solar energy and avoid many of the environmental challenges faced on Earth。 Yet space remains a harsh and expensive place to operate, with major hurdles including cooling, maintenance, radiati
A newly discovered feathered dinosaur called Jian changmaensis may be the missing predator responsible for mysterious piles of crushed prehistoric bird bones in China。 The four-winged glider, a close cousin of Velociraptor, helps reveal how early birds and their dinosaur relatives shared the same ancient landscape
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
Freshwater lakes across North America and Europe are becoming noticeably browner, reducing underwater visibility and reshaping fish populations。 Research found that several popular sport fish, including trout, bass, perch, and whitefish, tend to decline in darker waters。 Meanwhile, walleye and northern pike often become more abundant because they a
TikZ is a widely-used LaTeX package for drawing figures in papers。 It uses commands like \draw[->] (0,0) -- (1,2); to draw lines, shapes, text, etc。 Academics usually code up their figures by hand, so there is lots of twiddling around with the coordinates and recompiling until things look nice
A bird long thought to be a single rare species in Japan has turned out to be two。 Scientists discovered that the elusive Ijima’s Leaf Warbler and a newly identified Tokara Leaf Warbler look almost identical, but their DNA and songs reveal they are distinct species。 The finding marks Japan’s first new bird species discovery in more than 40 years an
An eminently binge-able series that honors classic horror tropes while reinventing them in surprising ways
Kevin Roose and Casey Newton explain why they try to include “a little chaos” when they record their New York Times tech podcast in front of a crowd in San Francisco
Astronomers may be closing in on a long-standing cosmic mystery: why some of the universe’s biggest galaxies seem to have far fewer stars than expected。 Using NASA- and JAXA-supported XRISM observations of a galaxy called NGC 4151, researchers found strong evidence that supermassive black holes can unleash powerful winds that blow away the raw mate
Coherence Neuro has started testing a brain-computer interface that could one day use electrical stimulation to prevent tumors from growing
A new SETI study suggests we may be overlooking alien signals not because they aren't there, but because their own stars are scrambling them before they escape into space。 Turbulent plasma and powerful stellar storms can spread an ultra-narrow radio transmission across a wider range of frequencies, making it much harder for traditional searches to
The driver told investigators he was using the vehicle’s automated-driver system when the vehicle left the roadway and crashed into a house in Harris County, Texas
A new theory suggests the universe is constantly recording its own history in the fabric of spacetime。 If correct, this cosmic memory could help solve some of the biggest puzzles in physics, from black holes to dark matter and the universe’s ultimate fate
Researchers uncovered why H5N1 bird flu attacks cows’ udders instead of their lungs: the virus’s preferred receptors are concentrated in mammary tissue。 The breakthrough could help scientists predict future bird flu jumps and spot unusual infections before they spread widely
Scientists discovered that kombucha’s flavor, chemistry, and antioxidant activity vary dramatically depending on the tea used to make it。 Green and oolong tea kombuchas emerged as the most biologically active, while fermentation transformed each tea into a distinctly different beverage
WhatsApp's leadership shake-up comes as Meta looks to strengthen its app's already booming presence in India
Himalayan villages are creating artificial glaciers to guarantee water for their crops in the spring
The employees encouraged limits on the complexes in a series of hearings in the tech giant’s hometown, Seattle
Times are hard in 2026。 These Amazon Prime Day deals under $100 on earbuds, Kindles, and more make life just a little bit easier
Public notice of a single "compassionate use" case is odd in every way
