Epilepsy is a challenging condition, especially for those who don't respond to standard medications. This is known as drug-resistant epilepsy, and it's a significant issue that needs new solutions. Scientists have been investigating a protein called PHGDH. This protein is found in brain cells and p
A mysterious traveler has been spotted heading towards our solar system. This object, now named 3I/ATLAS, is the third confirmed interstellar visitor. It's currently between the asteroid belt and Jupiter, moving at an incredible speed of about 130, 000 miles per hour. The object's origin is quite i
Near a lake in present-day Germany, a group of Neanderthals set up a clever system to get fat from animal bones. They smashed bones with stone tools and boiled them to get the fat. This was not a one-time thing. It happened over 300 years. They did this to avoid a dangerous condition called protein
A strange object is zooming through our solar system, and scientists now know it's from another star system. This object, initially called A11pl3Z, has been officially named 3I/ATLAS. It's moving super fast, around 152, 000 mph, and it's not slowing down. Scientists think it's a comet, not an astero
Malaria is a big problem, especially in Africa. It's caused by a tiny creature called Plasmodium falciparum. This creature needs special proteins to grow and survive. One of these proteins is called PfPK5. If scientists can block PfPK5, they might be able to stop malaria. Some plants in Nigeria are
The idea of bringing back dinosaurs has always been a hot topic. The latest film in the Jurassic series shows a mutated dinosaur called D-Rex. This creature has human-like arms and a big head. It eats humans and shows that messing with dinosaur DNA is a bad idea. The movie suggests that even if we c
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has made another groundbreaking discovery. This time, it's not a distant galaxy or a nebula, but a planet outside our solar system. The planet, named TWA 7b, is about the size of Saturn and orbits a young red dwarf star. What makes this discovery special is that
The Curiosity rover has sent back some fascinating pictures from Mars. These images show strange patterns on a mountain. Scientists think these patterns might tell us about water on Mars a long time ago. Mars is a dry, dusty place now. But it wasn't always like this. Long ago, rivers, lakes, and ma
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has just made a big find. It has spotted its first new planet outside our solar system. This planet, named TWA 7b, is special. It is the lightest planet ever seen directly outside our solar system. It is about 100 times the mass of Earth. That is still very ligh
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory has made a splash in the world of astronomy. In just a few days, it spotted 2, 104 asteroids that were previously unknown. This is a big deal because it shows how powerful this new tool is. Seven of these asteroids are near-Earth objects, but don't worry, none of them a
