A Study Suggests a Connection Between Climate Change and Global Extinction
In India, scientists studying rocks have discovered chemical proof of a series of abrupt temperature changes that occurred during the largest known mass extinction event,…
NASA’s Webb captures a Fiery Hourglass as a Young Star Develops
The James Webb Space Telescope (Webb) will observe the Universe at wavelengths longer than visible light, in the near-infrared and mid-infrared. Webb will open a…
Effective early Treatment for Neurodevelopmental Disorders
Neurodevelopmental disorders are defined by a set of symptoms that are caused by differences in a child’s brain and nervous system. While other mental health…
A Carbon Conveyor Belt in the Arctic has been discovered
Ocean currents transport massive amounts of heat all over the world. As a result, they are one of the most important climate-driving forces. Because they…
According to Research, Hydropower Dams Cause Widespread Species Extinctions on Islands in the Amazon Rainforest
The ongoing biodiversity catastrophe is being driven by deforestation, habitat loss, and fragmentation, with hydropower responsible for much of this degradation. River damming often floods…
Quantum Communication is expanded through the Use of Microlasers
Quantum communication is an application of quantum physics that is closely related to quantum information processing and quantum teleportation. Its most intriguing application is the…
Faster Swimming Soft Robot Than Previous Models Is Energy-Efficient
Scientists at North Carolina State University have developed an energy-saving soft robot that has the ability to swim more than four times faster than previous…
Exposure to Historical Temperature Variation Could Aid Forests in Adjusting to Climate Change
Planning effective forest management and climate policy requires an understanding of how forests are adapting to climate change. A recent study examined how past and…
On the Artemis I mission, the Orion Spacecraft makes the Closest Moon Approach
NASA’s Artemis program is a collection of ongoing space missions. Three Artemis missions are currently underway: Artemis 1, an uncrewed test flight that will circle…
Some Bird Species may be Protected from the Effects of Climate Change by the Characteristics of Older Forests
Some bird species may be protected from climate change by old-growth forests and managed forests with old-growth traits, according to research from the Oregon State…
Short Gamma-ray Bursts were Traced further out into the Cosmos
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are brief bursts of the most energetic form of light, gamma-ray light. GRBs, which can last from a few milliseconds to several…
