600 Petabytes, Every Year: How the World’s Biggest Telescope Becomes a Planet-Scale Computer
The world’s largest radio telescope isn’t just a machine to look at the cosmos—it’s a planetary-scale data organism that will
Webb captures a colossal 8‑light‑year stellar jet at our galaxy’s rim
A young, still-forming massive star has launched twin, knife-straight jets spanning roughly 8 light-years on the Milky Way’s outskirts—an eruption
The Rogue Black Hole and the Rule It Proved
Two fresh discoveries—a rogue, jet-spewing black hole racing through a dwarf galaxy, and a precision gravitational-wave test that affirms core
How Scientists Are Turning “Microbial Dark Matter” into a New Antibiotic Pipeline
Antibiotic discovery is quietly undergoing a systems-level reboot: by bypassing the need to culture microbes, mining giant DNA fragments from
Webb reveals carbon‑heavy disks and practical dark matter mapping
The James Webb Space Telescope isn’t just taking prettier pictures—it’s changing the priors behind two of astronomy’s hardest questions: what
How NASA’s GUARDIAN Spots Tsunamis in 20 Minutes—and Where It Fits in the Warning Ecosystem
A massive quake off Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula quietly stress-tested a new kind of tsunami sentinel: NASA’s GUARDIAN, a system that
The Neglecton That Could Unlock Topological Quantum Computing
A newly proposed quasiparticle—the “neglecton”—emerged from reviving discarded terms in non-semisimple topological quantum field theory and may supply the missing
E. coli Goes Electric: The Tiny Living Sensor Tracking Mercury Pollution
Mercury is a deceptively small molecule problem with continent-scale consequences—and the current testing pipeline is slow, centralized, and expensive. The new twist is radical but practical: turn engineered
Why Figurine-Style AI Avatars Go Viral: The Hidden System Behind Google’s “Nano Banana” Moment
Figurine-style AI avatars—mini “action figure” portraits inside toy-like boxes—spread because design psychology, frictionless creation, and social platform dynamics combine at
