Dozens of long-shot bets on Polymarket, from the war with Iran to the cryptocurrency market, have defied the odds, according to a New York Times examination
Cumberland, B。 is reimagining its coal mining past as a clean energy opportunity。 Water trapped in abandoned mine tunnels could be used in a geothermal system to heat and cool buildings efficiently and with minimal emissions
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
Shivon Zilis worked closely with Elon Musk while she was on OpenAI’s board。 Her ties to the world’s richest man were detailed in a landmark trial on Wednesday
Researchers have, for the first time, directly visualized how electronic patterns known as charge density waves evolve across a phase transition。 Using cutting-edge microscopy, they found these patterns form unevenly, breaking into patches influenced by tiny structural distortions。 Unexpectedly, small pockets of order persist even above the transit
Beneath the beauty of coral reefs lies a hidden universe of microbes unlike anything scientists expected。 Each coral species supports its own specialized microbial partners, many of which have never been studied before。 These microbes produce a stunning variety of chemical compounds with potential uses in medicine and biotech
The tech leaders, with combined net worths exceeding $670 billion, have brought props to court and traded icy stares as their legal dispute reaches a denouement
Scientists have uncovered a surprising secret hidden inside fat cells that could reshape how we think about obesity and metabolic disease。 A protein called HSL, long believed to simply release stored fat when the body needs energy, turns out to have a second job deep inside the nucleus of fat cells—helping keep those cells healthy and balanced。 Eve
Researchers at Stanford have developed a compact optical amplifier that dramatically boosts light signals using very little power。 By recycling energy inside a looping resonator, the device achieves strong amplification with minimal noise and wide bandwidth。 Its efficiency and small size mean it could run on batteries and be integrated into consume
Scientists at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, have uncovered a crucial trick used by enteroviruses—the group behind diseases like polio, myocarditis, encephalitis, and even the common cold—to reproduce inside human cells。 The team captured, in unprecedented detail, how viral RNA recruits both viral and human proteins to assemble the m
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
The Universe’s biggest black holes may not be born giants after all。 Scientists analyzing gravitational-wave signals from dozens of black hole collisions found evidence that the heaviest black holes are likely “cosmic recyclers” — formed through repeated smashups inside incredibly crowded star clusters。 These violent chain reactions appear to creat
Scientists may have uncovered a surprising secret behind why life exists at all。 A new study suggests that the Universe’s fundamental constants — the deep physical rules that govern everything from atoms to stars — appear to sit within an incredibly narrow “sweet spot” that allows liquids to flow properly inside living cells。 Even tiny shifts in th
“It seems every other day I am reading a story about a massive insider trading scandal
Scientists in China discovered that ancient humans were making surprisingly advanced stone tools during a harsh ice age 146,000 years ago。 The tools, created by Homo juluensis, show careful planning and complex thinking rather than simple stone-chipping。 Researchers dated the site using tiny calcite crystals inside animal bones, revealing the tools
Scientists may have found a smarter, safer way to wipe out termites hiding inside homes。 A chemical called bistrifluron prevents drywood termites from forming new exoskeletons during molting, killing entire colonies from within。 In tests, it eliminated about 95% of termites while avoiding the toxic side effects of traditional fumigation
Scientists have uncovered a surprising way to influence the bacteria living in our mouths — not by killing them, but by interrupting how they “talk” to each other。 Researchers found that dental plaque bacteria use chemical signals to coordinate growth, and by blocking those signals, they were able to encourage healthier bacteria while reducing dise
A powerful new electromagnetic thruster has taken a major step forward after a successful high-energy test at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory。 Fueled by lithium vapor and driven by intense magnetic forces, the experimental engine reached record-breaking power levels—far beyond anything currently used in space。 Glowing hotter than molten lava and f
