Okra May Protect Brain From Obesity's Harmful Effects, New Study Finds
A new rat study shows that okra can protect against the harmful brain and metabolic effects of early-life overnutrition, suggesting potential benefits in preventing obesity-related disorders.

Crystalline Ice Discovered in Space: New Study Reveals Hidden Order in Cosmic Ice
A groundbreaking study from University College London and the University of Cambridge reveals that water ice in space, long believed to be completely amorphous due to extreme cold, may actually contain up to 25% crystalline structure. Simulations and X-ray diffraction experiments confirm the presence of nanocrystals in so-called low-density amorpho...

Meteorite From Outer Solar System Challenges Planet Formation Timeline in Early Solar System
A meteorite from the outer solar system may upend long-held beliefs about planetary formation. New research shows rocky planets like Earth may have formed at the same time as those beyond Jupiter. The findings challenge previous models and suggest a more synchronised origin for rocky worlds across the solar system, with major implications for plane...

Scientists Trace Universe’s Missing Ordinary Matter Using FRBs and X-rays
New astronomical breakthroughs have identified where the universe’s “missing” ordinary matter resides. Using 70 FRBs, including one from 9 billion light-years away, scientists discovered that 76% of ordinary matter exists between galaxies. A separate X-ray study observed an enormous hot gas filament connecting galaxy clusters.

Mars Dust Devils May Spark Lightning, Might Pose Risks to Rovers: Study
A new computer-modeling study reveals that dust devils on Mars—swirling columns of dust and air—may become electrically charged enough to spark lightning-like discharges. Led by researcher Varun Sheel, the study simulates how dry Martian conditions and frictional collisions between dust grains can generate strong electric fields inside these vo...

Crash Due To Dual Engine Failure? Air India Pilots Simulate Doomed Flight
Over two weeks after an Air India plane crash that killed all but one of the 242 people on board, investigators and the airline are studying possible dual engine failure as a scenario that prevented the Boeing Co. 787 jet from staying airborne.

Astronomers Discover Baby Planets Taking Their First Steps in Nearby Stellar Nursery
Astronomers have detected early signs of planet formation in 27 young protoplanetary disks within the Ophiuchus star-forming region, just 460 light-years away. High-resolution imaging revealed spiral and ring patterns forming earlier than expected, suggesting stars and planets may grow together from infancy. The findings bridge a knowledge gap betw...

Seasons And Geographic Locations Strongly Influence Sleep Patterns: Study
The study, led by researchers from Flinders University in South Australia, finds that sleep is shaped not just by personal habits, but by environmental factors like daylight, temperature, and weekly routines.

Study Finds New Genetic Disorder Impacts Brain Development In Children
A team led by the University of Otago-Otakou Whakaihu Waka from New Zealand pinpointed specific changes in a gene called CRNKL1 that can potentially cause a severe genetic disorder with microcephaly and severe intellectual disability.
