Archaeologists find a 3,000-year-old Egyptian tomb before it’s too late
Archaeologists discovered a previously unknown 3,000-year-old Egyptian tomb near Luxor while implementing a conservation program to protect the Theban necropolis from flash flooding caused by climate change.
Scientists create brilliant white material without a drop of white pigment
Scientists developed a structural whiteness technique using porous foam materials that achieves brilliant white color and water repellency without titanium dioxide or PFAS chemicals.
Scientists just made quantum computer operations 1,000 times faster
Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology developed a method enabling quantum computer operations over 1,000 times faster, addressing a major obstacle toward fault-tolerant quantum computing.
Tiny nanolaser could cut computer energy use in half
Researchers at DTU have developed a nanolaser that could eventually reduce computer energy consumption by half through light-based data transmission on microchips instead of electrical signals.
Mercury’s surface reveals a surprisingly fiery past
Researchers determined Mercury’s surface contains about 37 percent silicon dioxide, significantly less than previously estimated, suggesting the planet’s volcanic rocks formed from deeply melted mantle material.
Tiny sound waves could help solve a major quantum computing problem
Harvard researchers demonstrated a method using microscopic sound waves to protect quantum information, potentially enabling more compact quantum networks and hybrid quantum systems on chips.
From blast off to splashdown: My days following Nasa’s historic mission to the Moon
Four astronauts completed a historic 10-day mission to the Moon and back, traveling further into space than humans have ever ventured before aboard the Artemis II spacecraft.
Simpler, older version of Stonehenge found three miles from famous site
Archaeologists discovered a simpler, earlier version of Stonehenge about 3 miles away, consisting of two wooden posts aligned with solstices and dating back approximately 5,000 years.
Antarctica’s first ever dinosaur bone discovered in a drawer
A dinosaur tail bone discovered in Antarctica in 1985 and stored in a drawer for 40 years has been identified as the first dinosaur fossil ever found on the continent.
Plantwatch: Cities make a surprising refuge for threatened UK wildflowers
UK cities are emerging as unexpected havens for threatened wildflowers, offering refuge from agricultural damage and climate pressures that have devastated rural populations.
The U.S. relied on these science advisers. Then the Trump administration cut them
The Trump administration has terminated over 100 federal science advisory committees, leaving hundreds of experts unable to address pressing health and research issues affecting millions of Americans.
A coffee-table-size scorpion roamed Earth before forests existed
Scientists have identified a one-meter-long scorpion from 415 million years ago as the largest known to science, pushing back the timeline of giant arthropods to before forests evolved.
Interstellar solar sails hit a strange problem at 75% of light speed
A new study identifies a potential problem with solar sail propulsion at extreme speeds: diffuse light scattering begins creating drag once a lightsail reaches approximately 75% of light speed.
Bristol scientists may have found first evidence of dark matter
Scientists at the University of Bristol may have detected dark matter for the first time using an underground detector in the US, though the findings await independent verification.
NASA’s Roman telescope will see 100 times more sky than Hubble
NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope launches in two days, designed to survey vast sky areas 100 times larger than Hubble while sharing infrared detection capabilities for combined observations.
Researchers unveil sustainable spirulina solution to vitamin B12 deficiency
Researchers have developed a method to grow Spirulina that produces biologically active vitamin B12 at levels comparable to beef, potentially addressing nutritional gaps in the widely promoted algae.
Devon heathland plan to support two rare species of ant
Devon Wildlife Trust has launched a three-year conservation project to protect two of the UK’s rarest ant species, including the narrow-headed and erratic ants, with £212,000 in government funding.
NASA’s Swift telescope is back, but time is running out
NASA’s Swift Observatory has resumed operations with two of three instruments after shelving plans for an orbital boost, though the spacecraft’s time in orbit is increasingly limited.
Earth may have lost the Sun’s protective shield millions of years ago
NASA-funded research suggests the Sun’s protective bubble may have contracted around Earth millions of years ago, and powerful solar eruptions in the early solar system may have kept the young planet warm.
A search for one exotic particle uncovered two strange new structures
Physicists at Jefferson Lab discovered two unexpected particle structures while searching for an exotic state called Y(2175), potentially advancing understanding of fundamental forces and matter formation.
Simpler, older version of Stonehenge found three miles from famous site
Archaeologists discovered a 5,000-year-old wooden post structure near Stonehenge that aligns with solar solstices, predating the famous stone monument by 500 years.
