NASA Lowers Risk of Asteroid 2024 YR4 Impact
NASA has significantly lowered the risk of asteroid 2024 YR4 hitting Earth in 2032. Initial estimates placed the impact probability at 1 in 32, but updated calculations have reduced it to just 1 in 360 (0.28 percent). Experts believe the risk will continue to decline as more data is collected. Despite being the riskiest asteroid on NASA’s Sentry ...

New Farm Fertilizer Could Remove CO2 from Air, Improve Soil Quality
Researchers have identified a method to accelerate carbon mineralisation using calcium silicates in farm fertilizers. The process could sequester billions of tons of CO2 while benefiting soil health. Unlike traditional magnesium silicates, calcium silicates react faster with CO2, making the approach more efficient. Scientists are exploring ways to ...

Synthetic Hexagonal Diamond Surpasses Natural Diamonds in Hardness and Stability
Scientists have successfully created a synthetic diamond with a hexagonal lattice, making it harder than natural diamonds. Developed using a process involving high-pressure heating of graphene, this diamond withstands up to 155 GPa and 1,100 degree Celsius, far exceeding the durability of natural diamonds. While unsuitable for jewellery, it holds p...

Scientists Detect Rising Microplastics in Human Brains, Study Raises Concerns
A study has found microplastics in human brains, with concentrations rising over recent years. Researchers suggest possible links to dementia, but some experts question the findings due to potential flaws in the analysis. While microplastics have been previously detected in human bodies, their impact on brain health remains unclear. Scientists call...

Astronomers Discover Largest Collection of Missing Link Black Holes in Dwarf Galaxies
Astronomers have uncovered 2,500 dwarf galaxies containing active black holes using DESI data. This marks the largest-ever discovery of intermediate-mass black holes, with 300 new candidates identified. These findings could help scientists understand how black holes evolve from stellar-mass to supermassive sizes. The research, based on 410,000 gala...

Apple’s AI-Powered Image Playground App Reportedly Has Bias Issues
Apple’s Image Playground app is said to have some bias issues. A machine learning scientist recently shared several outputs generated using the artificial intelligence (AI) app and claimed that it contained incorrect skin tone and hair texture on several occasions. These inaccuracies were also said to be paired with specific racial stereotypes, a...
