Scientists want to search for life in this double star system devoid of giant exoplanets. Here's why

A recent study suggests that a massive supernova explosion may have led to the formation of a binary black hole, providing new insights into the evolutionary history of massive stars. This finding highlights the complex processes involved in stellar evolution and the eventual creation of black holes.

Scientists have sequenced the genome of a woolly rhinoceros from undigested remains found in the stomach of a wolf pup that lived over 14,000 years ago. This discovery provides valuable insights into the extinction of the woolly rhino, a species that roamed the Earth during the Pleistocene epoch.

NASA's X-ray instrument has discovered that black holes behave like 'cosmic seesaws,' influencing the dynamics of their accretion flows in a manner described as an energetic tug-of-war. This finding sheds light on the complex interactions occurring within black holes and their surroundings.

Recent findings suggest that ancient lakes on Mars developed ice shields to maintain warmth, potentially explaining how liquid water persisted on the planet despite a colder climate. This discovery sheds light on Mars' hydrological history and its capacity to support water in various forms.

Mathematical tools derived from string theory are providing scientists with innovative methods to explore the complex networking of neurons in the brain. This approach aims to deepen the understanding of neural connections and their implications for cognitive functions.

A recent satellite image captured snowy peaks in Greenland, highlighting the region's significant influence on local climate patterns. This observation underscores the ongoing changes in the Arctic environment as climate dynamics evolve.

Global temperatures experienced a dip in 2025, yet scientists caution that more heat records are anticipated in the future. This follows a trend where the last three years have been the hottest on record, driven by ongoing carbon emissions from human activities.

Research indicates that viruses may exhibit enhanced capabilities in the microgravity environment of the International Space Station (ISS), suggesting that microgravity influences viral evolution in ways that remain largely unexplored.
