The Albuquerque museum dedicated to nuclear history took an unexpected turn when third graders became the guides. Their voices now explain exhibits instead of adults, making complex topics feel familiar. This project turns science into something kids can relate to, blending learning with creativity.
Arkansas residents should prepare for a mixed bag of weather this week. Forecasters predict scattered thunderstorms starting Tuesday morning, with another possible round later in the day. A cold front pushing through the region will bring the chance of heavy rain that could last into Wednesday. Whil
The latest warning from Washington came in a weekend social media post that lacked specifics but carried sharp teeth. "Speed matters for Iran, " it read. "Fast action needed—or nothing will remain.

A new set of iridium compounds was made by removing a methyl group from older ionic versions. These neutral pieces, called 3 and 4, have a big ring of carbon atoms and a side group that can be chlorine or iodine. Scientists used them to build strange mixed‑metal structures that combine iridium
The World Health Organization has quickly declared the Bundibugyo ebolavirus outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda a public health emergency of international concern, only two days after it was first confirmed. This swift action is unusual; since 2005 the WHO has raised this alarm
A new type of ultrasonic reactor was built to solve problems that older models had. Older straight‑tube reactors produce uneven bubbles, poor mixing and hard‑to‑control heat. The new design places a small 2. 5 mm ring of cavitation between a heated inner tube and an outer glass shell that vibr
Many governments push for drastic cuts in meat production, claiming livestock methane is a major climate threat. But science shows this fear is overblown. Even wiping out all 1. 6 billion cows wouldn’t cool the planet by much—just 0. 04°C. Sheep? Their removal would barely make a dent. New Zealand’s
