A single week of intensive meditation and mind-body practices led to measurable changes across the brain and body. Researchers observed improved brain efficiency, boosted immune signaling, and increased natural pain relief chemicals in participants’...
The Artemis II crew go further than any humans before in Nasa's first crewed mission to the Moon in over 50 years.
Earth may have won a cosmic chemistry lottery. Researchers found that during the planet’s earliest formation, oxygen had to be in an extremely narrow “Goldilocks zone” for two life-essential elements, phosphorus and nitrogen, to stay where life...
NASA's mission control in Houston regained communication with the crew after an expected loss of contact for some 40 minutes, as their spacecraft passed behind Earth's natural satellite.
A strange “forbidden” planet spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope is turning planetary science on its head. TOI-5205 b, a Jupiter-sized world orbiting a small, cool star, has an atmosphere surprisingly poor in heavy elements—even less enriched...
Four astronauts from NASA’s Artemis II mission have broken the record for the farthest human travel from Earth.
Is consciousness something the brain produces, or is it woven into the fabric of reality itself? Renowned neuroscientist Christof Koch is challenging long-held scientific assumptions by confronting the “hard problem” of consciousness — why and how...
Your brain’s “stop eating” signal may come from an unexpected source. Researchers found that astrocytes—once thought to just support neurons—actually play a key role in controlling appetite. After a meal, glucose triggers tanycytes, which send...
Congress rejected huge cuts to science in 2026, but Trump is trying again.
The astronauts on Artemis II will observe parts of the moon rarely seen by human eyes. A NASA planetary scientist said it will offer a vital perspective for lunar research.
Lori Glaze: "We have seen real commitment to try and do that... from both Blue and from SpaceX."
Samsung's S27 lineup, expected next year, might include a new member, the Galaxy S27 Pro, which would be a second premium option between Samsung's Ultra and Plus models, as first reported by ETNews. The new Pro model reportedly won't support the S...
A new study has crunched the numbers, and it turns out that while attention spans are dwindling, movie runtimes are growing.
The company is also announcing a deal with L3Harris to build the sensors for Xoople's spacecraft.
This major cultural complex, designed by Tadao Ando, is taking shape in Tashkent, with intricate building work led by an international team and plans for art and learning spaces.
Scientists have identified a little-known receptor, GPR133, as a powerful regulator of bone strength. By activating it with a newly discovered compound called AP503, they were able to boost bone density in mice and counteract osteoporosis-like...
NASA’s Artemis II crew are expected to reach their destination on Monday where the four astronauts aboard the Orion will – for the first time – look at the lunar far side with the naked eye. The fly-by will last approximately six hours before the...
The Orion spacecraft is in its final phase and has entered the moon's gravitational sphere. The astronauts are expected to soon break the record for traveling the farthest distance from Earth.
The Orion spacecraft is in its final phase, with NASA saying astronauts have broken Apollo 13's record for traveling the farthest distance from Earth.
