A new space traveler has caught the attention of astronomers. This visitor, named 3I/ATLAS, is the third interstellar object ever spotted in our solar system. It was first seen on July 1, 2025, by a telescope in Chile. The object's unusual path quickly revealed it wasn't bound by our sun's gravity,
Sean Combs, better known as Diddy, faced serious charges that could have landed him in prison for life. But after a long trial, he was found not guilty of the most serious charges. This was a big deal, not just for him, but for the other inmates he shared a jail cell with. When Combs returned to ja
A huge comet, Bernardinelli-Bernstein, is making waves in the solar system. It's not just its size that's impressive—it's also acting in ways that surprise scientists. This comet, one of the largest ever found, is releasing jets of carbon monoxide gas, and it's doing this while still very far from t
Orange County faced serious problems due to heavy rain from Tropical Depression Chantal. The rain led to flash floods, forcing people to leave their homes and closing many roads. Chapel Hill, a town in Orange County, warned residents about the floods. By 9 p. m. , first responders started evacuatin
North Carolina faced severe flooding after Tropical Depression Chantal dumped a lot of rain in central parts of the state. The rain caused serious damage, leading to states of emergency in Moore and Orange counties. Many roads and highways were closed due to the flooding. A section of Interstate 40
In the rugged North Himalayan foothills, a special kind of cow has been quietly thriving. The Belahi cattle, a newly recognized breed, are not your average cows. They've been roaming and grazing freely, adapting to the tough conditions of the Shivalik range for generations. These cows are like the s
Researchers dug into how certain markers in the blood might hint at heart trouble. They focused on two things: ferritin and glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4), which are tied to a process called ferroptosis. This process is linked to cell damage and death. The study looked at 396 people with coronary
Plants are getting creative to survive droughts. As the world heats up, dry spells are becoming more common and harsher. Scientists are studying how plants handle these tough times. They're looking at how plants use their inner workings to stay alive when water is scarce. One big focus is on the pl
The world is burning too much fossil fuel. This is bad news for our planet. It's making the weather go crazy. We need new ways to make energy that don't harm the Earth. One cool idea is using electricity to turn CO2 into useful stuff. This is called CO2 reduction. It can help clean the air and store
In the world of biofuel production, breaking down plant material is a big challenge. Scientists have been working on ways to make this process more efficient. One promising approach involves using enzymes from a heat-loving fungus called Rasamsonia emersonii. This fungus naturally produces enzymes
