We could nuke 'city killer' asteroid 2024 YR4 before it hits the moon — if we act fast, new study warns

Recent research indicates that the depths of the Arctic Ocean have warmed more than previously anticipated, primarily due to warmer water influx from Greenland. This unexpected temperature rise poses significant concerns for marine ecosystems and climate patterns in the region.

Tonight, the moon reaches its farthest distance from Earth since March 2020, a phenomenon that will not occur again until 2043. However, this event will not be visible to observers on Earth.

Scientists have traced the origins of kissing back to a primate ancestor that lived approximately 21 million years ago. This research sheds light on the evolutionary roots of this behavior, linking it to the common ancestor of humans and other large apes.

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera has identified a new crater on the moon's surface, referred to as a 'freckle.' This discovery adds to the ongoing exploration and understanding of lunar geology.

In 2023, scientists detected gravitational waves from a seemingly impossible black hole collision. New research has provided insights into how this 'forbidden' black hole formed and what it reveals about these extreme cosmic objects.

Scientists are warning that societies are not adequately prepared for the humanitarian and social costs associated with climate overshoot. While there has been significant progress in understanding the physical impacts of climate change, the authors emphasize the urgent need to focus on the broader implications for human welfare and social structures. This lack of preparedness could exacerbate existing vulnerabilities and lead to severe consequences for communities worldwide.
