Humans Lived In African Rainforests 1,50,000 Years Ago: Study
Our human species emerged in Africa around 300,000 years ago but scientists don't yet have a clear picture of what kind of natural environment we evolved in

Earth’s Mantle Could Be Harbouring Ocean of Magma Formed Billions of Years Ago, Claims Study
The study conducted by Boukaré and published on March 26 in the Journal Nature suggests that this molten layer at the core-mantle boundary of the Earth formed the internal thermal structure of the planet and tectonic plates. This may still influence the geochemical process of the Earth today. Further, it suggests a similar magma ocean existence on...

Tropical Tree in Panama Evolves Shocking Defense, Strikes Rivals with Lightning Bolts
A few studies describe the tree as having strong internal conductivity, letting lightning current flow through without building up damaging heat like a well-insulated wire. Because they tend to grow large — up to 130 feet (40 meters)—and live for centuries, a single tonka bean tree is estimated to be struck at least five times after reaching ma...

New Study Reveals Chemical Secret Of Earth's 4.5 Years Billion Crust
Earth is the only known planet which has plate tectonics today. The constant movement of these giant slabs of rock over the planet's magma creates continents - and may have even helped create life.

World’s First Modular Quantum Computer Operates at Room Temperature
A room-temperature quantum computer has been developed by Xanadu, addressing scalability and error correction challenges in the field. Named Aurora, the system uses photonic qubits and connects multiple modules via fibre optics, removing the need for extreme cooling. Published in Nature, the study highlights its potential for large-scale quantum da...

Physicists Achieve Record-Breaking Electron Beam Power and Current at SLAC
Researchers at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have set a new record by generating the highest-current, highest-peak-power electron beam ever recorded. The beam reached 100 kiloamps in just one quadrillionth of a second, achieved through advanced compression techniques and magnetic field manipulation. This breakthrough could have major implica...

People in Modern Societies Sleep More but Have Irregular Sleep Cycles
A study analyzing 54 global sleep studies has found that people in industrialised societies sleep longer than those in hunter-gatherer communities. While sleep efficiency is also higher in modern settings, circadian rhythms are less regular. Researchers suggest reduced exposure to natural light may be a key factor in these disruptions. The study ch...

New Study Suggests Dogs May Have Domesticated Themselves for Food
A recent study explores the possibility that early wolves self-domesticated by staying near human settlements for food. Over thousands of years, wolves with more tolerant temperaments may have had better access to resources and selectively bred with similar mates. This natural selection process might have led to the domesticated dogs we know today....

Controversial Study Says Wolves Can Help Scotland Meet Climate Goals. Here's How
Scotland's red deer population has skyrocketed to approximately 400,000, with no natural predators like grey wolves to control their numbers.

New Seismic Data Challenges Earth's Inner Core Structure, Reveals Surprising Findings
Recent seismic data from 121 earthquakes recorded over three decades challenges previous beliefs about Earth's inner core. Researchers from the University of Southern California discovered structural changes in the core, suggesting it may not be as solid as once thought. These anomalies, observed while studying the core's slowing rotation, could of...

New Study Suggests Intelligent Life May Be More Common Than Thought
A groundbreaking study challenges the long-held belief that intelligent life is rare, proposing that the emergence of complex life could be a natural outcome of planetary conditions. Researchers suggest that life evolves in response to planetary changes, rather than a series of improbable evolutionary leaps. This new model, led by experts in astrop...
