In 2025, science took a big hit. The government decided to cut back on spending for research. This affected many areas, like space exploration, health studies, and weather science. People who work in these fields are worried. They think these cuts might make the U. S. fall behind other countries in
Ever wondered how scientists map out the family tree of genes? It's not as simple as tracing a single line. Genes can duplicate, get lost, or interact in complex ways. Traditional methods have tried to make sense of this by focusing on the simplest explanations. But what if genes don't always play b
Scientists have made a big step forward in understanding how human embryos attach to the womb. They did this by making tiny, lab-made wombs. This could help us understand why some pregnancies fail or why some people struggle to have babies. But, it also brings up some big ethical questions. The res
In a quiet corner of Texas, under a clear blue sky, a scientist named Robin Grob was working on a tiny, orange and black butterfly. This wasn't just any butterfly, it was a monarch, known for its incredible journey. Grob was trying to understand how these butterflies find their way over thousands of
In 2025, scientists played detective, cracking old mysteries that had puzzled people for ages. They dug up secrets from the ground and even from ancient bodies, giving us new clues about the past. One big find was about the giant stone heads on Easter Island. Researchers figured out how the Polynes
South Korea has just revealed its top 100 research and development wins for 2025. This list, now in its 20th year, shines a light on some truly impressive projects. One standout is the K9 howitzer's powerful new engine. Made right here in South Korea, this engine packs a punch with 1, 000 horsepowe
Life in the city is more than just tall buildings and busy streets. It's a mix of things in the air, water, and around us that can change how our genes work. This is what scientists call the Urban Exposome. It's not just about pollution. It's also about the social stuff, like how we live and interac
Ever heard of tiny waves that can make big things happen? Let's talk about something cool called quasi-BIC metasurfaces. These are like tiny, special surfaces that can do amazing things with light. They have something called Fano resonances. Think of it like a secret handshake between two types of l
Archaeology is more than just digging up old stuff. It's a way to understand how people lived, interacted, and changed over time. Right now, archaeologists in the U. S. are facing a big challenge. The government has cut funding for research, and old ways of thinking are holding back new discoveries.
Water leaks in pipes are a big deal. They waste water and cost money. But what makes these leaks happen? It's not just about pressure. There's a sneaky factor called cavitation. Cavitation is when tiny bubbles form and collapse in water. It can change how water flows through leaks. This study looke
