A growing body of research suggests the planet Venus may have had an Earth-like environment billions of years ago, with water and a thin atmosphere. Yet testing such theories is difficult without geological samples to examine. The solution, according to Yale astronomers Samuel Cabot and Gregory Laughlin, may be closer than anyone realized. Cabot and ...
Biological transmutations have been gaining increasing interest in the past few decades. In physics, nuclear transmutation is the process of converting one isotope of an element into another chemical element. During this process, the number of neutrons or protons in the nucleus of the resulting element will be different from the original one. A French ...
Everyone uses tablets and mobile phones. Unfortunately, they force you into a posture that strains your neck, shoulders, and back. Most people lower their heads to look at the screen of their smart device or tablet. In addition, they then raise their shoulders and slant their necks into a bent-forward position. As a result, this ...
Catherine Neish is counting the days until her space launch. While the Western planetary geologist isn’t space-suiting up for her own interstellar voyage, she is playing a key role in an international mission — dispatching a robotic drone to Saturn’s moon Titan — set to blast off in 2027. For nearly two decades, the global ...
If crocodiles scare you already, then this evidence of their ancient ancestors walking on two legs is guaranteed to terrify you. In a recent paper published by Scientific Reports, crocodylomorph tracks were discussed. The analysis indicates a large possibility that the crocodile’s ancestors walked on their hind legs much like T-Rex. The large 10-foot-long crocodile ...
The Chinese celebrated their Mid-Autumn Moon Festival recently on October 1. It is the second most important traditional holiday in the country after the Chinese New Year.

In June, the Chinese regime got scared of a rather unique weather phenomenon. At a time when China was in the midsummer season, midsummer snow started to fall in some places. Why would the CCP be afraid of snow? There is a rather surprising reason for this — a long-held local belief that snow in ...
The ancient Egyptians were known to be master builders, having built the pyramids and other wondrous architecture. Their expertise can also be seen in the ingenious egg hatching system that they invented 2,000 years ago and is still in use in rural regions called egg ovens. The egg ovens The first mention of Egypt’s egg ...
As missions like NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, TESS, and Kepler continue to provide insights into the properties of exoplanets (planets around other stars), scientists are increasingly able to piece together what these planets look like, what they are made of, and if they could be habitable or even inhabited. In a new study published recently in The Planetary Science Journal, a ...
