Mysterious Object Headed Into Our Solar System Is Coming From the Center of the Galaxy

Folks, it's official: the object that astronomers recently spotted blowing through the outer solar system came from interstellar space. Yesterday, the intriguing stranger was provisionally named A11pl3Z. Now, it's earned the esteemed designation 3I/ATLAS — that "I" standing for interstellar. 3I/ATLAS is currently located between the orbits of the asteroid belt and Jupiter, the New York Times reported, where it lies about 416 million miles away from the Sun, NASA said. That's equal to four and a half times the distance between the Earth and our star. It won't stay there for much longer. As we speak, 3I/ATLAS is hurtling [...]

As millions of Americans stock up on hot dogs ahead of Independence Day, researchers have some bad news: those franks are deadly, no tails, snouts, or anuses butts about it. The tragic news comes from a survey published in Nature Medicine, a biomedical research journal. Combing over 60 previous nutrition studies on processed foods, specifically cured meat, sugary drinks, and trans fatty acids — all staples of the North American diet — researchers determined there's "no safe amount" of processed food humans can eat. The survey established an iron-clad link between the consumption of those three food stuffs and chronic [...]

Astronomers Capture First-Ever Image of Star That Exploded Twice

For years, scientists have suspected that stars can meet their doom by a one-two punch of back-to-back explosions — but they've never seen visual evidence of this happening. That just changed. Astronomers using the Very Large Telescope in Chile have taken the first ever image of such a stellar "double-detonation," or more specifically, its grisly but spectacular aftermath called a supernova remnant. Their findings, published in the journal Nature Astronomy, add to our understanding of burned-out stars called white dwarfs, which our star is eventually fated to become. "The explosions of white dwarfs play a crucial role in astronomy," says [...]

Targeted for Immunity: A Transporter's Journey to the Chloroplast

Plants are constantly under siege by pathogens, and their survival depends on precise internal defense strategies. A new study uncovers how StGPT1, a sugar transporter protein, and StRFP1, a regulatory enzyme, work together to enhance plant immunity. When StRFP1 tags StGPT1 on the endoplasmic reticulum, it redirects the transporter to the chloroplast--an emerging command center for immune responses. This protein teamwork ramps up the plant's defense arsenal, including hormone signaling and reactive oxygen species production. The findings point to a previously unknown pathway that links intracellular protein trafficking with disease resistance in potatoes.

Clues in the claws: Finger length may reveal sexual preferences in rats

Sexual behavior and sex preference in animals and humans are shaped by complex interactions between the brain and hormones during early development. One critical factor is exposure to androgens (male sex hormones) during fetal development, which influences the sexual differentiation of the brain. This early hormonal exposure is linked to a wide range of adult behaviors, like sexual behavior and cognitive traits, but finding a reliable, noninvasive biological marker for the same has remained a challenge.
