New Study Uses Math to Decode Creativity and Idea Formation
A new study published in Nature Communications explores the mathematical foundations of creativity. Researchers introduced a model called Edge-Reinforced Random Walk with Triggering (ERRWT) to simulate how new ideas emerge by combining familiar elements. By analysing music habits, literature, and scientific papers, the study found that while discov...

Bennu Asteroid Sample Reveals Organic Compounds That May Hint at Life Beyond Earth
NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission has delivered a sample from asteroid Bennu, revealing amino acids, nucleobases, ammonia, and minerals formed in saltwater. These organic compounds, vital to life, suggest that the building blocks for life might have existed in other regions of the early solar system. The discovery of evaporite minerals, including halite ...

Ex-US Senator Bob Menendez Jailed For 11 Years In Corruption Case
A judge sentenced a powerful former US senator to 11 years in prison Wednesday, after he was convicted of corruption following the discovery of gold bars and hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash at his home.

Unusual White Streaks in Northern Lights Raise Questions About Atmospheric Phenomenon
White streaks have been observed weaving through the northern lights, presenting a new atmospheric puzzle. Captured by the TREx mission, these eerie white glows appear alongside traditional red and green auroras or in areas where colourful displays have faded. The phenomenon is not considered an aurora, but its emission pattern shares similarities ...

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, ...

Astronomers Discover 19 New Quasars Using DESI Legacy Surveys Data
Using data from the DESI Legacy Surveys photometry catalog, 19 new quasars were identified, including strongly-lensed, dual, and projected types. Observations were carried out on October 15–16, 2023, at California's Palomar Observatory using the P200/DBSP instrument. Among the findings are two lensed quasars, J0746+1344 and J2121-0826, which exhi...

Noida Student Discovers Asteroid, Earns Recognition from NASA with Opportunity to Name It
Daksh Malik, a 14-year-old student from Noida, has made an asteroid discovery that earned him recognition from NASA. Through the International Asteroid Discovery Project (IADP), Malik identified the asteroid “2023 OG40” and will have the opportunity to name it once NASA verifies the discovery. Daksh’s passion for space, sparked by National Ge...

Astronomers Capture Supermassive Black Hole Plasma Jets at Birth
For the first time, plasma jets from a supermassive black hole have been observed in real time. Located 270 million light-years away in galaxy 1ES 1927+654, the jets traveled at one-third the speed of light. Emerging in 2024 after a radio flare in 2023, the jets broke through dense gas near the black hole, which has a mass 1.4 billion times that of...

Asteroid 2024 PT5 Linked to Lunar Surface, Reveals Planetary Defense Insights
Asteroid 2024 PT5, sized like a school bus, passed Earth in January at 1.1 million miles. Research suggests it originated from the moon, ejected thousands of years ago by an impact. Spectral analysis matched it to Apollo 14 lunar rocks, ruling out artificial origins. This is the second known lunar asteroid after 469219 Kamo’oalewa. The study hint...

Chorus Waves Found Far From Earth Raise Concerns for Space Exploration
Chorus waves, energetic electromagnetic bursts resembling bird chirps, have been detected 100,000 miles from Earth, far beyond their usual range. NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale satellites observed these waves in a flatter region of Earth's magnetosphere, contradicting prior assumptions about their formation near strong magnetic gradients. The wav...
