New Study Probes How Same-Sex Behaviors Evolved in Nonhuman Primates

A recent study published in Scientific American reveals that horses can detect human fear through scent, as they exhibited increased signs of fear when exposed to cotton pads soaked in the sweat of scared individuals. This finding highlights the sensitivity of horses to human emotional states, suggesting a deeper connection between humans and these animals than previously understood.

A recent study suggests that T. rex may have continued to grow throughout its life, indicating that these dinosaurs lived longer than previously believed. This finding is based on new evidence discovered within T. rex bones, which provides insights into their growth patterns and lifespan.

A food scientist has addressed the growing concerns surrounding seed oils, which have been criticized on social media. The scientist explains that current research does not support the negative claims made about these oils, aiming to clarify misconceptions.

New research indicates that the x-ray emissions from Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way, have undergone significant changes over the past few hundred years, suggesting it may have once been 10,000 times brighter than it is today.

U.S. greenhouse gas emissions have risen for the first time in two years, driven by increased electricity demands from AI data centers and a recent cold snap, according to a new report. This uptick follows a period of declining emissions, raising concerns about the sustainability of previous environmental progress.

A recent study reveals that 70 percent of cancer patients now survive at least five years after diagnosis, marking a significant improvement in cancer survival rates over recent decades. This progress is attributed to advancements in treatment and early detection methods. However, concerns arise as federal funding cuts may jeopardize these gains in cancer care and research.

Two Swedish inventors have developed vertical solar panels designed to withstand high winds, addressing the limitations of traditional solar technology in northern regions. These wind-resistant trackers aim to enhance solar energy generation in high latitude areas where conventional systems often fail due to harsh weather conditions.

A traditional card deck, consisting of 52 cards, effectively resolves a complex poker paradox that affects other variants of the game. This mathematical alignment highlights the unique structure of poker and its reliance on the standard deck.
