A simple scan called coronary artery calcium testing can spot dangerous plaque buildup in your heart's arteries—giving doctors a clearer picture of your risk for a heart attack. But despite its potential to save lives, this test isn't being used as much as it should be.

A massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake triggered tsunami waves that struck Japan, Hawaii, and the US west coast, causing widespread concern and emergency responses. The event highlights the far-reaching impact of seismic activity in the Pacific region.

Editor’s Note: This isn't just another earthquake report—it's a reminder of how interconnected our planet is. A quake in one part of the Pacific can send dangerous waves thousands of miles away, putting multiple countries on high alert. For coastal communities, tsunamis are a real and unpredictable threat, making preparedness and early warning systems critical.

Former President Donald Trump is reportedly assembling a team of climate change skeptics to challenge established scientific consensus on global warming. These appointees are expected to push back against policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, potentially reshaping the national conversation on climate action.

Editor’s Note: If this effort gains traction, it could slow down or reverse progress on climate initiatives, affecting everything from energy regulations to international agreements. Given the urgency of the climate crisis, sidelining science in favor of skepticism might have long-term consequences for both the environment and public health. This isn’t just political noise—it could shape how (or whether) the U.S. tackles one of the biggest challenges of our time.

A team of tattoo artists and scientists have teamed up to recreate the intricate tattoos found on a 2,000-year-old Siberian mummy from the Pazyryk culture. These ancient people, known for their love of body art, left behind remarkably preserved tattoos on mummies buried in the Altai Mountains. The project blends modern artistry with archaeology to bring history’s ink back to life.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about cool tattoos—it’s a fascinating mashup of art, science, and history. By recreating these designs, researchers and artists are unlocking clues about ancient cultures while showing how body art has been a timeless form of expression. Plus, it’s a rare chance to see how people 2,000 years ago might have looked in full tattooed glory.
