Earth Was Born With Water; No Delivery Needed

The source of Earth's water is one of the most compelling questions facing scientists. Earth's habitability depends on multiple factors, but water is the basis for life, and it had to come from somewhere. Did comets and meteorites deliver it after Earth formed? Or did water become part of our planet as it formed?

A Solar Gravitational Lens Telescope Is The Only Feasible Way To Get High Resolution Pictures Of A Habitable Exoplanet

Sometimes in order to support an idea, you first have to discredit alternative, competing ideas that could take resources away from the one you care about. In the scientific community, one of the most devastating ways you can do that is by making the other methods appear to be too expensive to be feasible, or, better yep, prove they wouldn’t work at all due to some fundamental limitation. That is what a recent paper by Dr. Slava Turyshev, the world’s most prominent proponent of a Solar Gravitational Lens (SGL) telescope mission, does. He examines how effective alternative telescope technologies would be at creating a 10x10 pixel map of an exoplanet about 32 light years away. Unsurprisingly, there’s only one that is able to do so without giant leaps and bounds in technology development - the SGL telescope.

A ground-breaking study conducted by researchers from McGill University, the Lady Davis Institute for Medical Research (LDI) at the Jewish General Hospital, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and MIT has identified a novel approach to combat aggressive breast cancers by retraining neutrophils, the body’s first responders, to directly kill tumour cells. This research offers new hope for patients with breast cancers that do not respond well to existing immunotherapies.

Tracking molecules in the interstellar medium

Stars don't form out of nothing, but tracking the gas and dust that do eventually form stars is hard. They float around the galaxy at almost absolute zero, emitting essentially no light, and generally making life difficult for astronomers. But part of how they make life difficult is actually the key to studying them—they have absorption lines that detail what kind of material the light is passing through on its way to Earth.

Magnets Could Become the Next Generation of Gravitational Wave Detectors

When Einstein's predicted ripples in spacetime pass through magnetic fields, they cause the current carrying wires to dance at the gravitational wave frequency, creating potentially detectable electrical signals. Researchers have discovered that the same powerful magnets used to hunt for dark matter could double as gravitational wave detectors. This means experiments already searching for the universe's most elusive particles could simultaneously capture collisions between black holes and neutron stars, getting two of physics' most ambitious experiments for the price of one, while potentially opening entirely new windows into the universe's most violent events.

In Denver, scientists uncovered a 67.5-million-year-old dinosaur fossil deep underground — and by chance, it just so happened to be buried underneath the parking lot of a museum that houses similar specimens. As the Denver Museum of Nature and Science explained in Catalyst, its online magazine, the ancient bone fragment was buried some 763 feet below the institution's parking lot, making it the oldest and deepest such fossil to be discovered within city limits. Beyond the coincidence of finding a dino bone underneath a museum of natural history, however, the way the bone was found also defies belief. Back in January [...]

Cutting to the Core of How 3D Structure Shapes Gene Activity

In biology textbooks and beyond, the human genome and DNA therein typically are taught in only one dimension. While it can be helpful for learners to begin with the linear presentation of how stretches of DNA form genes, this oversimplification undersells the significance of the genome's 3D structure. Problems with this 3D structure are associated with many diseases including developmental disorders and cancer.Scientists at Sanford Burnham Prebys and colleagues in Hong Kong published findings June 27, 2025, in Genome Biology demonstrating a new approach for better understanding the human genome's 3D structure and its influence.

Scientists Discover Uranus Has a Dancing Partner

Hidden in the darkness between Uranus and Neptune, a team of astronomers have discovered a small world locked in a million year gravitational waltz with Uranus. The asteroid enjoying this celestial dance with Uranus completes exactly three orbits for every four of the ice giant, representing the first known stable partnership of its kind in this remote region of the Solar System. The discovery proves that even in the apparent chaos of space, there are elegant mathematical relationships that have persisted, revealing new secrets about how gravitational forces sculpt the architecture of our planetary system.

The Orbital Eccentricity-Radius Relation For Planets Orbiting M Dwarfs

The orbital eccentricity-radius relation for small planets is indicative of the predominant dynamical sculpting processes during late-stage orbital evolution. Previous studies have shown that planets orbiting Sun-like stars exhibit an eccentricity-radius trend such that larger planets have higher orbital eccentricities, and that radius gap planets may have modestly higher orbital eccentricities than planets on either [...]The post The Orbital Eccentricity-Radius Relation For Planets Orbiting M Dwarfs appeared first on Astrobiology.

Radius Valley Scaling Among Low Mass Stars With TESS

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has been highly successful in detecting planets in close orbits around low-mass stars, particularly M dwarfs. This presents a valuable opportunity to conduct detailed population studies to understand how these planets depend on the properties of their host stars. The previously observed radius valley in Sun-like stars has not [...]The post Radius Valley Scaling Among Low Mass Stars With TESS appeared first on Astrobiology.

A Comprehensive Study On Radial Velocity Signals Using ESPRESSO: Pushing Precision To The 10 cm/s Level

We analyse ESPRESSO data for the stars HD10700, HD20794, HD102365, and HD304636 acquired via its Guaranteed Time Observations (GTO) programme. We characterise the stars’ radial velocity (RV) signals down to a precision of 10 cm/s on timescales ranging from minutes to planetary periods falling within the host’s habitable zone (HZ). We study the RV signature [...]The post A Comprehensive Study On Radial Velocity Signals Using ESPRESSO: Pushing Precision To The 10 cm/s Level appeared first on Astrobiology.

CO Desorption From Interstellar Icy Grains Induced By IR Excitation Of Superhydrogenated PAHs

Infrared (IR) radiation dominates dense, interstellar clouds, yet its effect on icy grains remains largely unexplored. Its potential role in driving the photodesorption of volatile species from such grains has recently been demonstrated, providing a crucial link between the solid state reservoir of molecules and the gas phase. In this work, we investigate IR-induced photodesorption [...]The post CO Desorption From Interstellar Icy Grains Induced By IR Excitation Of Superhydrogenated PAHs appeared first on Astrobiology.

Narcissism and other dark personality traits linked to AI cheating in art universities

In many countries, there is an academic cheating crisis with students misusing artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT to write essays, dissertations and other assignments. According to new research, certain personality traits make some students more likely to pass off AI-generated work as their own.

The KATRIN experiment sets new constraints on general neutrino interactions

Neutrinos are elementary particles that are predicted to be massless by the standard model of particle physics, yet their observed oscillations suggest that they do in fact have a mass, which is very low. A further characteristic of these particles is that they only weakly interact with other matter, which makes them very difficult to detect using conventional experimental methods.

Experts Warn that People Are Losing Themselves to AI

AI users are spiraling into severe mental health crises after extensive use of OpenAI's ChatGPT and other emotive, anthropomorphic chatbots — and health experts are taking notice. In a recent CBC segment about AI-tied psychosis, primary care physician and CBC contributor Dr. Peter Lin explained that while "ChatGPT psychosis" — as the phenomenon has come to be colloquially known — isn't an official medical diagnosis just yet, he thinks it's on its way. "I think, eventually, it will get there," said the physician. As Futurism has reported, a troubling number of ChatGPT users are falling into AI-associated states of delusion and paranoia following [...]
