Recently, we ran a piece including the views of well-known science writer John Horgan who talked about a bizarre element of quantum physics confirmed by recent experiments– that it appears as if there´s no knowledge apart from observers’ minds. Theoretical physicist Sabine Hossenfelder is decidedly not happy with that approach:” Physicists have revealed that objective […]

A victory for quantum physics Three researchers jointly won this year’s Nobel Prize in physics Tuesday for proving that small particles can retain a connection with each other even when separated, a phenomenon in quantum physics once questioned now being explored for potential real-world applications like encrypting data. Frenchman Alain Aspect, American John F. Clauser,

NASA and SpaceX authorized an unfunded Space Act Agreement Thursday, Sept. 22nd, to study the feasibility of a SpaceX and Polaris Program concept to boost the agency’s Hubble Space Telescope into a greater orbit with the Dragon spacecraft at no cost to the government. There are no plans for NASA to carry out or fund

James Webb first Full-color images help astronomers make a new discovery. James Webb’s discovery is yet to give us not just a new insight but also a treasure trove of data held by every image it has released. The first full-color James Webb image, released by President Joe Biden on July 11, reveals a vast

A group of scientists from Helmholtz Munich has identified a new use for vitamin K, typically recognized for its part in blood clotting. In its fully reduced configuration, the researchers discovered that vitamin K operates as an anti-oxidant by efficiently inhibiting ferroptotic cell death. Ferroptosis is a natural kind of cell death in which cellular

An in-depth conversation with Jess Toolson, founder, and CEO of Mixhers, concerning how being a parent has shaped her skill sets. One article celebrating an accomplished woman entrepreneur and the fact that its writer is one man might sound like a disjointed arrangement, yet rest assured: I had quite a bit of assistance writing it.

A solid is made of particles that are, more or less, locked in an ordered framework. On the other hand, a fluid is made of particles that can flow freely around and past each other. However, imagine atoms that stay unfrozen, like those in a liquid– but which are in one constantly changing magnetic mess.

What makes people brain distinct from that of all other animals– including also our closest primate relatives? In an analysis of cell kinds in the prefrontal cortex of 4 primate species, Yale researchers identified species-specific– particularly human-specific– features, they report on Aug. 25th in the journal Science. And they discovered that what makes us human

Science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke’s 3rd law states that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” Indika Rajapakse, Ph.D., is a believer. The engineer and mathematician now discovers himself a biologist. And he believes the charm of blending these 3 disciplines is crucial to unraveling how cells function. His latest development is a

When the COVID pandemic began, it was an international crisis for humans– but as humans took shelter, reports of wildlife reclaiming what were once human-dominated spaces abounded. But biologists are noticing the patterns were not repeated around the world. Last year, a research group led by University of Manitoba conservation biology professor Nicola Koper found
