Humanoid Robot Protoclone Stuns Internet with Lifelike Movements
Protoclone, a humanoid robot by Clone Robotics, has gained viral attention for its lifelike movements. The android features over 200 degrees of freedom, 1,000 artificial muscle fibers, and 500 sensors, enabling precise motion. Powered by a pneumatic system with plans for a hydraulic upgrade, Protoclone has sparked mixed reactions online, with many ...

Synthetic Hexagonal Diamond Surpasses Natural Diamonds in Hardness and Stability
Scientists have successfully created a synthetic diamond with a hexagonal lattice, making it harder than natural diamonds. Developed using a process involving high-pressure heating of graphene, this diamond withstands up to 155 GPa and 1,100 degree Celsius, far exceeding the durability of natural diamonds. While unsuitable for jewellery, it holds p...

JWST Identifies Cooling Gas in Phoenix Cluster, Unlocking Star Formation Process
The James Webb Space Telescope has detected the missing cooling gas in the Phoenix Cluster, a galaxy cluster located 5.8 billion light-years away. Researchers used the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) to identify gas at around 540,000 degrees Fahrenheit trapped in cavities within the cluster. This discovery resolves a long-standing mystery of how sta...

Extreme Arctic Warming Sees North Pole Temperatures Rise Above Freezing
A sharp rise in Arctic temperatures saw the North Pole exceed freezing, with readings 20 degree Celsius above normal. Scientists warn of accelerating ice loss and climate change impacts. The event, attributed to a weather system near Iceland, has raised concerns about Arctic amplification, which causes the region to warm nearly four times faster th...

2024 Marks Earth's Hottest Year Ever, Surpassing Critical 1.5 degree Celsius Warming Limit
In 2024, Earth recorded its hottest year ever, surpassing the critical 1.5 degree Celsius warming threshold for the first time in history. This significant temperature increase has been linked to intensified weather events, rising sea levels, and widespread environmental damage. The year saw an alarming rise in climate-related disasters, with the U...

Arctic Siberia Summers 10 Degree Celsius Warmer in Last Interglacial, New Study Reveals
A new study reveals that Arctic Siberia experienced summer temperatures up to 10 degree Celsius warmer than today during the Last Interglacial period, which occurred approximately 115,000–130,000 years ago. Researchers analysed sediment cores and fossil records from the Dmitry Laptev Strait to reconstruct past environments. The study found signif...

India’s Summer Maximum Temperature to See a Rise of 1.5 Degree Celsius by 2043, Claims New Climate Data
A new report highlights the growing climate crisis in India, predicting rising temperatures, increased extreme weather events, and food security threats. By 2057, maximum temperatures may rise by 1.5 degrees Celsius, with variations across regions. Changes in rainfall patterns could impact agriculture and rural livelihoods, particularly in the nort...

Australopithecines May Have Used Tools Over 3 Million Years Ago, Reveals New Study
A recent study reveals that australopithecines, including Lucy’s species, may have used tools over 3 million years ago. By examining muscle attachment sites on their hand bones, researchers found traits indicating a high degree of dexterity. This discovery could redefine our understanding of the timeline for tool use, suggesting that early human ...

New Study Reveals Weaker Atlantic Current Could Mitigate Arctic Warming
Recent research from UC Riverside reveals that a weakening Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) could limit Arctic temperature increases by up to 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the century. While this slowdown may offer some relief, ongoing threats to Arctic wildlife and potential global weather disruptions remain a serious concern. ...

STAR1 Robot Breaks Record with Sneakers, Reaches 8Mph in Gobi Desert Test
The STAR1 robot, developed by Chinese company Robot Era, has set a new record for bipedal robots by reaching a speed of 8 mph in the Gobi Desert. Thanks to AI-powered hardware and the added boost from sneakers, STAR1 was able to navigate challenging terrains, including gravel and grass, while maintaining its top speed for 34 minutes. This achieveme...

Jupiter-Like Exoplanet With Iron Winds and Molten Metal Rain Discovered by Researchers
Astronomers have discovered that the exoplanet WASP-76b, located about 634 light-years away in the Pisces constellation, experiences extreme weather conditions unlike anything on Earth. With temperatures soaring to around 4,350 degrees Fahrenheit (2,400 degrees Celsius), the planet's atmosphere is ravaged by high-speed iron winds and molten metal r...

Superconductors at Room-Temperature Possible If Electron Pairing Can Be Decoded, Claims Study
Physicists have recently observed an unexpected phenomenon in a superconducting material, potentially pushing the boundaries of what's possible in this field. The discovery centres on a material typically known as an electrical insulator. In this insulator, researchers found that electrons could pair up at temperatures as high as minus 123 degrees ...
