Copper nanoclusters are like tiny teams of atoms that can do big things, like helping to turn CO2 into useful stuff. But these teams often fall apart because copper atoms are too reactive. Most of the time, scientists use copper(I) atoms to build these clusters, but they're not as good at their job
In the world of birds, some young ones stay put in their family home longer than others. This is common in species where family members team up to raise chicks. Researchers looked into this behavior using data from the Seychelles warbler, a bird that lives in groups. They wanted to know what makes t
Nurses in intensive care units (ICUs) were at the frontlines during the COVID-19 pandemic, dealing with the most serious cases. A study in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, wanted to understand how these nurses felt about their ability to handle the crisis. The study looked at how confident they were in their s
SpaceX's Starship rocket faced another setback when it exploded during a test in Texas. This happened late at night on June 18, 2025, while the rocket was being prepared for its 10th test flight. The explosion was powerful enough to light up the night sky, but luckily, no one was hurt. The rocket,
In the vast expanse of space, a sudden and powerful radio signal caught the attention of astronomers. This signal, though brief, was strong enough to be detected by the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope. It lasted less than 30 nanoseconds, but that was enough to sp
Kids and teens with typical development can benefit from playing games that involve arm movements. These games, known as exergames, can make therapy more fun and engaging. But how do we know if these games are really helping? That's where the idea of measuring intensity comes in. Intensity in thera
Genes play a big role in how the body handles medicines. One gene, NFIB, has a specific change (rs28379954 T>C) that can affect how much clozapine, a medicine used for treatment-resistant schizophrenia, is in the blood. People with this change need higher doses to feel the medicine's effects. This
Water pollution is a big problem. Scientists are always looking for new ways to clean it up. One recent discovery is a special material called Mn-Co-BTC@MOF/S-MXene. It's made by combining different chemicals and has been tested to see how well it can remove lead from water. This material was check
Bumble, the dating app giant, is making some serious changes. They just announced plans to let go of 30% of their staff. That's about 240 people. This move is expected to cost the company between $13 million and $18 million this year. But Bumble believes it will save them $40 million every year movi
Plastic is everywhere. It's in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. But what happens when these tiny plastic bits, called microplastics, find their way into our bodies? Scientists wanted to find out. They looked at samples from different organs of people who had passed away.
