ISRO’s AstroSat Observes First-Ever Nuclear Explosion in Andromeda Galaxy
Using the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) aboard ISRO’s AstroSat, scientists have identified far-ultraviolet emissions from 42 novae in the Andromeda Galaxy. This marks the first detection of such emissions during their outbursts, offering new insights into the processes of stellar explosions. Four of these novae were observed in real-time a...

Here's How Nuclear Clocks Could Redefine Time and Reshape Modern Technology
Timekeeping is entering a new era with nuclear clocks, capable of achieving accuracy to the 19th decimal place. Current atomic clocks rely on caesium-133, but innovations with thorium-229’s nuclear transitions, excited by ultraviolet light, promise unprecedented precision. Scientists aim to redefine the second using elements like strontium by 203...

Tencent Announces Light of Motiram, an Open-World Title That Looks Eerily Similar to Sony's Horizon Series
A Tencent has announced a new open-world action-adventure title that seemingly blends Guerrilla Games’ Horizon series on PlayStation with Pocketpair’s controversial crafting game Palworld. Light of Motiram, developed by Tencent subsidiary Polaris Quest, looks eerily similar to Horizon games, down to tameable mechanical animals — called “Mec...

Google ‘Learn About’ Experimental AI Tool With Educational Style Responses Released
Google released a new experimental artificial intelligence (AI) tool on Monday aimed at helping users learn about new topics. Dubbed Learn About, the tool is different from the Mountain View-based tech giant's usual AI offerings, such as Gemini or AI Overviews. The experimental tool shows the information in a visual and interactive style and picks ...

Scientists Move Closer to Synthesising Element 120, Marking Potential New Era in Periodic Table
Scientists at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California are exploring new techniques for creating superheavy elements, focusing on the potential synthesis of “element 120,” also called unbinilium. If successful, this addition could lead to an eighth row on the periodic table. Using ion bombardment, researchers demonstrated a process t...

AI Unlocks “DNA Grammar” for Targeted Gene Editing, Enhancing Gene Therapy, and More
Researchers at The Jackson Laboratory, Broad Institute, and Yale University use AI to identify DNA sequences that control gene activation in specific cells. This AI model decodes patterns in DNA regions called cis-regulatory elements (CREs), guiding synthetic DNA switches for cell-specific gene activity. Early testing in animal models showed succes...

New 3D Scans Provide Insight into Shackleton’s Endurance Shipwreck Discovery
Recent 3D scans of the Endurance, Sir Ernest Shackleton’s shipwreck, offer a detailed glimpse into its history and artifacts. Discovered in 2022, these images reveal remarkably preserved elements of the ship, including dishes and a boot, highlighting the crew's journey and survival after becoming trapped in ice. A documentary premiering on 1 Nove...

New Study Finds Selfish DNA (LINE-1) is Essential for Early Human Embryo Development
Recent research has shed light on how "selfish DNA," particularly LINE-1 transposons, plays a key role in early human development. Once viewed primarily as harmful, these elements have now been found to be essential for the normal formation and specialisation of cells during the embryo's early stages. Blocking their activity causes developmental di...

AI Tool Helps People with Opposing Views Find Common Ground in Public Policy Deliberations
A new AI tool developed by Google DeepMind helps people with opposing views reach consensus by summarising viewpoints fairly. Tested on UK residents, the AI-generated summaries were preferred over those of human mediators, showcasing potential for improving democratic deliberation processes. The tool, named the Habermas Machine, could be crucial in...
