AI models are becoming a big deal in weather forecasting. They are supposed to help us predict extreme weather events. But there is a problem. These models are trained on past weather data. They struggle with events that are so rare, they weren't in the training data. These rare events are called "g
Aptasensors are tools that use aptamers to spot specific targets. What makes them special? They are highly sensitive and selective. They are easy to tweak, stable, and can give real-time results. Plus, they are safe for living things, budget-friendly, and blend well with other tech. Now, imagine mix
The well-being of horses is often judged by specific behaviors or health signs. However, a horse's overall welfare is shaped by its entire environment. This includes how it is cared for and how it is used. Previous work has shown that different riding schools can have horses with unique emotional tr
The University of Michigan has made a big splash in the world of lasers. They have a new tool called ZEUS. It is a laser that can produce an incredible 2 petawatts of power. That is 2 quadrillion watts. It is a lot of power. But it is not like the lasers in science fiction movies. It is not go
Mars has always been a subject of curiosity. The red planet is home to Olympus Mons, a giant mountain that stands about 22 kilometers tall. This is more than double the height of Mount Everest on Earth. Around this massive mountain, there are rolling hills covered in bright and dark streaks. These
Predicting space weather is tricky. Unlike Earth weather, it doesn't get as much attention, even though the risks are high. Scientists can spot solar storms and estimate when they'll reach Earth, but there's a big unknown. The magnetic field of a storm, known as the Bz component, can't be predicted
Chinese researchers have found something unusual in space. A new type of bacteria has been discovered on the Tiangong space station. This bacteria, named Niallia tiangongensis, is not found on Earth. It is a relative of a common Earth bacteria, but it has changed to live in space. This is not th
The idea of reading emotions straight from the brain might sound like science fiction. Yet, it's a real possibility thanks to EEG, or electroencephalography. EEG records electrical activity in the brain, offering a window into a person's emotional state. This technology is already making waves in fi
Clerodendrum infortunatum, a plant deeply rooted in Assam's traditional medicine, is making waves in the scientific community. This plant, known locally for its healing properties, has been studied for its potential to combat malaria. Eight unique compounds have been extracted from its leaves and ro
The world of medicine has seen some amazing changes thanks to tiny particles called nanoparticles. These super-small bits can be used to deliver drugs right where they are needed in the body. Among these, polymeric nanoparticles stand out because they can be adjusted to fit different needs. Their su
