AI Generates Fluorescent Protein That Nature Would Need 500 Million Years to Evolve
A new AI-generated fluorescent protein, esmGFP, has been developed, a process that would have taken nature 500 million years. Scientists used ESM3, an AI model trained on billions of natural protein sequences, to design a functional protein beyond evolutionary constraints. The development is expected to accelerate medical research, drug discovery, ...

AI Enhances Northern Lights Classification and Geomagnetic Storm Forecasting
A breakthrough in auroral research, powered by artificial intelligence, has allowed scientists to classify over 700 million auroral images. This effort, using NASA's THEMIS dataset, will significantly enhance the prediction of geomagnetic storms, which can disrupt Earth's communication and security systems. Led by the University of New Hampshire, t...

New Study Uncovers Vital Ocean Processes for Carbon Storage and Climate Regulation
A new study has identified two crucial processes in preserving organic carbon beneath the ocean floor: sorption and molecular transformation. Conducted by scientists from the University of Manchester and the University of Leeds, the research highlights how these mechanisms keep carbon locked in sediments, preventing its release as carbon dioxide. A...

Scientists Predict Under Sea Volcano Eruption Near Oregon Coast in 2025
Axial Seamount, an undersea volcano located off the coast of Oregon, is showing signs of an impending eruption, with scientists predicting it could occur as early as 2025. The volcano’s surface has been swelling, and seismic activity is increasing, both of which mirror patterns seen before previous eruptions. Researchers have been closely monitor...

Tetsuwan Scientific Is Building AI-Powered Robotic Scientists That Can Carry Out Experiments
Tetsuwan Scientific, a San Francisco-based startup, is building artificial intelligence (AI) robotics that can perform the tasks of a scientist. The Co-founders, CEO Cristian Ponce and the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) Théo Schäfer, brought the startup out of stealth in November after a successful seed round funding. The company aims to build in...

Humpback Whale’s Unprecedented 8,000-Mile Migration Shatters Records
A humpback whale has been tracked on an unprecedented 8,000-mile migration, breaking records for the longest documented journey between breeding grounds. Scientists suggest the movement might be due to climate change affecting food and mating behaviours. AI-driven photo tracking through HappyWhale.com played a key role in identifying the whale’s ...

NASA Partners with Microsoft For Earth Copilot AI to Simplify Access to Complex Earth Data
NASA, in collaboration with Microsoft, has introduced Earth Copilot, an AI-powered tool designed to simplify access to complex Earth science data. This tool is aimed at reducing the technical barriers that prevent non-experts from effectively navigating NASA’s vast geospatial datasets. Earth Copilot allows users to ask questions about environment...

Mysterious Noises Coming From Mariana Trench for a Decade Finally Explained
Strange underwater noises, known as “biotwang” sounds, have puzzled scientists since they were first heard near the Mariana Trench in 2014. These odd noises, described as a combination of low grumbling and high-pitched metallic ringing, are reminiscent of sounds from sci-fi movies. For years, the source of these noises was unknown, though they ...
