New climate data raises questions about how much the Earth has warmed
A recent study suggests that most smaller galaxies may not have supermassive black holes in their center. This new finding goes against what scientists have previously known about galaxies and black holes. If proven to be true, it could reshape our understanding of how black holes form and even affect future space missions.
The finding may help resolve a long-standing debate about the origin of some the world’s major gold deposits.
Helium isotope could help pinpoint location of gold deposits that originate in deep Earth Interesting Engineering
Astronomers have performed the deepest radio observations ever of Omega Centauri, searching for signs of an intermediate mass black hole thought to lurk at its center. Despite 170 hours of observations with the Australia Telescope Compact Array achieving unprecedented sensitivity, they detected absolutely nothing where the black hole should be. If an intermediate mass black hole exists in this massive star cluster, as suggested by fast moving stars discovered earlier this year, it must be accreting material at an extraordinarily low rate, barely feeding at all compared to other known black holes.
Researchers have discovered that a close encounter with a rogue planet or brown dwarf during the Sun's early years could have triggered the reshuffling of our Solar System's giant planets. Running 3000 simulations of stellar flybys, the team found that substellar objects passing within 20 astronomical units of the young Sun could destabilise the planets' orbits just enough to match their current configuration without destroying the delicate Kuiper belt. This flyby scenario represents a new possible explanation for one of the Solar System's defining events, with roughly a 1-5 percent probability depending on how common free floating planets actually are in young star clusters.
A zoo on Java island released photos of Indonesia's first locally-born giant panda cub, and said the male cub was showing signs of being in good health.
Astronomers at the University of Tokyo have used gravitational lensing to measure how fast the universe is expanding, adding weight to one of cosmology's most intriguing mysteries. Their technique exploits the way massive galaxies bend light from distant quasars, creating multiple distorted images that arrive at different times. The measurement supports recent observations showing the universe expands faster than predictions based on the early universe suggest, strengthening evidence that the "Hubble tension" represents genuine new physics rather than experimental error.

"Mostly, we don't want to harm each other," Danusha Laméris avows in her short poem "Small Kindnesses."Coming across this line made me think of my time spent in observation. I have curated a list of my best takes on kind objects and occasions that are easily swept past in chasing the next glimmering goal.There is a natural phenomenon where trees in dense areas avoid clashing with each other by tending their canopies at a respectful distance so that each woodland resident may have a fair bid at sunlight. From a utilitarian perspective, it seems strange. Why would evolution select for a behavior where, instead of vying for a coveted resource, trees reach a hushed and mutual agreement of withdrawal? Crown shyness, or canopy disengagement, is abundantly observed in the vegetation that surrounds us. Tree branches arrange against the edge of a pristine azure sky in fractal-like shapes, resembling tiny, sprawling riverbeds.And while trees cannot speak, or summon up their roots to participate in travel, they somehow have marvelous ways of protecting each other - in silence, and in secret. When one tree falls, pheromones are rapidly released across a shivering thicket to alert others, serving as a warning and call for help. Nearby trees extend their benevolent roots, intricate laceworks of fiber mingled with the gossamer mesh of mycorrhizae, to send aid to the fallen companion.Take my minerals, nutrients, and all of this good earth along with it, they say. We are lucky to coexist, after all.Apart from coniferous plants, I like granting ordinary objects expression even in their apparent stasis. Cotton socks hung up to dry on a laundry line yaw against the wind, reaching for their symmetrical halves at a palm's distance. Star anise crushed into fine powder against the blunt edge of a camping knife blooms an oxidized red when acquainted with pan oil. The spent floss of velcro-strapped sketchers is laid to rest after many good years of holding ankle to sole. In the fire of summer, the tassels of my mother's hair gather up the intense solar glare before exhaling back into a placid umber."Mostly, we don't want to harm each other."A more recent addition to this ongoing directory of kind happenings, I've decided, is umbrella communication in the rain. When a downpour begins and I walk past others fleeing a storm, there is an instant where the metal axes of our umbrellas tilt in avoidance of canopy collision, flicking clear, marble droplets across the pavement. The wetness variably hits an eyelash, and as I blink, the world splinters into a foggy kaleidoscope. When it rains, I think so much about escape, about seeking warmth and dryness in the zip-up of my felt coat and trembling skin, away from harsh weather, a small puddle pooling around my feet. Even so, rain is a way of the sky giving back the water that evaporates out of breath, out of unfurling sapling leaves, rushing through creeks and reservoirs.While I've made note of occurrences that touch me happily, I cannot omit the objects from my view that appear to have a pointed voice. Like, the anti-roosting spikes with their protruding spiny fingers on adorned door frames, or park benches segmented with too many armrests. We have found ways to circumscribe others, using such designs.Consequently, it is always important to look, to peer around with wide eyes at objects and people alike, with the enormous sense that we are inhabitants of the same brush, often never coming into direct contact. But in our quiet neighbor-ness, there is so much capacity for reciprocal care.Crystal Wang is a sophomore from Baltimore, Md., studying Molecular and Cellular Biology.

Carl Sagan famously said that “We’re all made of star-stuff”. But he didn’t elaborate on how that actually happened. Yes, many of the molecules in our bodies could only have been created in massive supernovae explosions - hence the saying. Scientists have long thought they had the mechanism for how settled - the isotopes created in the supernovae flew here on tiny dust grains (stardust) that eventually accreted into Earth, and later into biological systems. However, a new paper from Martin Bizzarro and his co-authors at the University of Copenhagen upends that theory by showing that much of the material created in supernovae is captured in ice as it travels the interstellar medium. It also suggests that the Earth itself formed through the Pebble Accretion model rather than massive protoplanets slamming together.
