Calling AI things like “smart” or saying it “knows” something might sound harmless, but it can quietly mislead people about what AI actually does。 A new study shows that news writers are more careful than expected, rarely using strongly human-like language。 When they do, it often falls on a spectrum—sometimes describing simple requirements, other t

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 new kind of memory device may finally solve the problem of overheating and battery drain in electronics。 By shrinking components to an extreme scale and redesigning their structure, researchers found a way to reduce energy loss instead of increasing it。 The result is a tiny memory unit that improves as it gets smaller—something once thought impos

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

We'll soon get to see the brand's first EV; first, a more honed V12 four-seater

Scientists have uncovered the true boundary of the Milky Way’s star-forming region using stellar “age mapping。” They found a telltale U-shaped pattern showing that star formation drops sharply around 35,000–40,000 light-years from the center。 Beyond that, stars are mostly migrants, slowly drifting outward rather than forming in place

Crushing soda cans for science, why dolphins swim so fast, how urine helps mushrooms communicate, and more

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

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

Astronomers have long been puzzled by a cosmic mystery: planets orbiting two stars—like Star Wars’ Tatooine—are surprisingly rare, even though they should be common。 New research suggests the culprit is none other than Einstein’s theory of general relativity

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

Different hunting patterns seem to dictate different distributions of metal

The outage has hampered communication concerning a critical vulnerability that gives root

A mysterious cosmic explosion has astronomers buzzing, as a strange event may hint at an entirely new kind of stellar cataclysm。 After detecting ripples in space-time, scientists spotted a fast-fading red glow that initially looked like a rare kilonova—the kind of collision that forges gold and uranium。 But just days later, the signal shifted, beha

Deep inside planets like Uranus and Neptune, scientists may have uncovered a bizarre new state of matter where atoms behave in unexpected ways。 Advanced simulations suggest that carbon and hydrogen, under crushing pressures and scorching temperatures, can form a strange hybrid phase—part solid, part fluid—where hydrogen atoms spiral through a rigid

New results suggest Mythos' cyber threat isn't "a breakthrough specific to one model

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

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

Chip shortages and demand from AI enthusiasts are both playing a part
