Modern space exploration mostly relies on shipments from Earth, but these rarely include fresh fruits or vegetables. Having reliable sources of fresh food—rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and fibre—could help keep astronauts healthy on long missions.
Ever wonder why you still feel tired, irritable, or unable to concentrate, even after a full night’s sleep? Studies suggest the culprit could be your night-time exposure to artificial light—from smartphones, tablets, computers, and LED lights.
For a long time, scientists believed this was how fish rested. Surprisingly, research reveals that this seemingly effortless behaviour actually uses almost twice as much energy as genuine rest.
Have you ever wondered how animals adapt to urban life, with its traffic jams and busy streets? A fascinating observation by researcher Dr. Vladimir Dinets sheds light on how some birds might not only survive but cleverly take advantage of human activities—particularly traffic.
A recent social media trend involving taping one's mouth shut at night to prevent mouth breathing has sparked considerable debate. But according to new research, this popular sleep hack may be less effective—and more risky—than people think.
Scientists have uncovered how a tiny molecular machine called the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier unlocks the gates to our cells’ powerhouses—an energy-boosting breakthrough that could pave the way for new treatments for cancer, diabetes, and more.
Astronomers have uncovered something unusual happening in our cosmic neighborhood—a small galaxy near the Milky Way is behaving strangely, and no one is quite sure why.
Researchers have successfully created solar cells using simulated lunar dirt, potentially offering astronauts a sustainable energy source without needing to bring heavy materials from Earth.
New research from Brown University reveals surprising insights into why Americans at every economic level have shorter lifespans compared to Europeans.
Have you ever eaten something that made you so sick you couldn't stomach the idea of eating it again? A team of neuroscientists has discovered exactly how the brain creates these strong food aversions after just one bad experience.
A team of scientists has developed a new method to create carbon-negative materials using seawater, electricity, and carbon dioxide (CO₂). This new process not only locks away CO₂ in solid form but also yields hydrogen gas, a useful clean fuel.
You may have noticed fewer butterflies in your backyard. Researchers now have data confirming that they are disappearing across the United States at an alarming rate.
A new scientific review highlights a growing concern: microplastics and nanoplastics are accumulating in human brain tissue. Researchers are now investigating what this could mean for brain health and how we can reduce our exposure.
Your everyday routine may be quietly accelerating your brain’s decline—yet with a few simple but powerful adjustments, you can preserve your cognitive health.
In an Algerian quarry, scientists made an unexpected discovery toward a much bigger story: one that reaches across millions of miles, all the way to Mars.
Scientists have discovered that mountain ranges, where deep mantle rocks are exposed, may hold significant natural hydrogen resources, potentially offering a new route to cleaner energy.
