New research shows cats have the ability to link words and images faster than toddlers, suggesting a surprising cognitive ability in felines. Conducted at Azabu University in Japan, the study used visual cues to reveal that cats could recognise altered word-image pairings, showing signs of confusion and attention to detail. The findings, published ...

NASA's NEOWISE spacecraft, originally launched as WISE in 2009, has ended its mission after nearly 15 years in operation. It successfully identified around 3,000 near-Earth objects and contributed significant data to the scientific community. NEOWISE's demise was attributed to the current solar maximum, leading to its atmospheric re-entry. As NEOWI...

The Hunga volcano eruption near Tonga on January 15, 2022, sent shockwaves and tsunamis across the globe, creating low, booming sounds heard as far away as Alaska. In New Zealand, more than 2,100 public observations of the eruption, from rumbling sounds to animals reacting, helped scientists at GNS Science cross-verify seismic and atmospheric data....

The crew of Shenzhou 18, including astronauts Ye Guangfu, Li Cong, and Li Guangsu, has returned to Earth after a six-month mission on the Tiangong space station. They landed at the Dongfeng site in northern China on November 3, 2024. During their mission, they conducted various scientific experiments and set a national record for spacewalks. Ye Gua...

A major scientific breakthrough has overturned the long-held belief that gout is primarily caused by lifestyle factors like diet and alcohol consumption.

Biomechanics research has revealed the exceptional power and precision of Indigenous Australian weapons, specifically the kodj and leangle. These tools, designed by Aboriginal people for hunting and protection, display remarkable force and accuracy that underscore the sophistication of traditional Aboriginal technology.

NASA’s upcoming Lunar Trailblazer mission aims to explore and map water on the Moon. Set for launch next year, this satellite will utilise advanced instruments to identify and measure water in various forms. It will investigate permanently shadowed craters and surface features to gather insights about lunar water's origins and its potential for f...

NASA's Mars Perseverance rover has unveiled intriguing findings at Serpentine Rapids, a location characterised by its striking red rocks interspersed with distinctive green spots. These features, observed in a nighttime mosaic captured by the rover's SHERLOC WATSON camera, may provide insights into Mars' geological history. The green spots are thou...

NASA has identified nine candidate landing regions for the Artemis III mission, which marks humanity’s return to the Moon after fifty years. The selected regions are near the lunar South Pole, rich in scientific opportunities. These areas will be assessed for geological features and resource potential, especially water. Future missions will also ...

A massive iceberg, A-68, which broke off from Antarctica's Larsen C Ice Shelf in 2017, has created a distinctive marine environment during its four-year drift, according to recent scientific analyses.

On September 22, 2024, China’s High Magnetic Field Laboratory set a world record by creating a 42-tesla resistive magnet, surpassing the previous 41.4-tesla mark established by the US in 2017. This breakthrough, resulting from nearly four years of research, enhances the capabilities of high-field magnets used in scientific exploration, positionin...

"And now you're confidently tossing around "scientific" explanations, claiming I'm paralysed on one side? Are you kidding me," Alia Bhatt wrote in her post

The Chief of Section will be responsible for designing, leading and coordinating the implementation of UNESCOs work in the field of Water Sciences.

The research, led by scientists from Leiden University in the Netherlands, reveals that REBELS-25 is much more orderly than what current scientific models suggest for galaxies of its age.

In this article, we will debunk common myths surrounding chronic loneliness and explore the scientific facts that make it a public health concern just as serious as smoking.
