Here you can find the latest in science news, scientific discoveries. Written and explained with humorous twist, of course.
Saving corals and trying to restore the bleached ones back to life requires as many innovative methods humankind can think of right now. A team of international scientists tried to give corals a soundtrack to attract new fish. They discovered the fish loved the corals’ music and tended to stay.
Earthquakes take a huge toll on humankind and we have no means of preventing them. However, science just found a way to detect new tectonic plates on the bottom of the ocean and detect undersea earthquakes. All with the help of those optic fiber cables we don’t see but we all love for bringing us the Internet.
Astronomers detected a stellar black hole so “monstrous” in size, it should not exist. Yet, the impossible black hole is here in our Milky Way and cutting-edge technology confirmed its existence. Now astrophysics needs to change its working models and come up with new theories.
Almost all trauma-related deaths are a result of bleeding. But what if we could stop hemorrhages with the help of a magnetic field? Scientists from MIT propose the use of a magnetic fluid and of external magnets to create a magnetic field that could stop bleeding, stabilize pressure, and buy trauma patients some time.
The face of physics is about to change forever. A team of Hungarian scientists found a new particle and the fifth force of nature – the only one able to explain why the particle behaves the way it does. Now physicists around the world are trying to replicate the experiments to learn if we are one step closer to understanding dark matter and how the universe works.
A tiny fragment of meteorite found decades ago in Algeria shines new light on the birth of our Solar System and planets. The ice fossils revealed by the space rock may hold the answer to the origin and evolution of Earth.
