California might deal with the worst-case scenario, new satellite data reveal. Observed from space, California’s drought is just tragic. For that, the ESA (the European Space Agency) captured a satellite photo of the San Gabriel Reservoir and Angeles National Forest ...
China aims to send the first humans to Mars and build a permanent base. It’s great to see the country stepping up and committing to such daring and inspirational goals, but the competition is tough. NASA and SpaceX also plan ...
Earth is currently experiencing the worst-case scenario as global warming threatens to put an end to glaciers and lakes. A recent event, though, has made scientists worry even more. New satellite data show how a massive lake in Antarctica vanished ...
A huge fossilized skull buried in a well in China over the past 90 years has just been found by scientists, and it’s making them re-analyze human evolution. The skull was initially discovered in 1933 by Chinese workers building a ...
Reducing carbon emissions might have zero effects on preventing disastrous climate change, scientists warn us. And as shocking as this might sound, it’s the truth, and we have to accept it. Professor Nerilie Abram from the Climate Crisis Advisory Group ...
New research shows how a bunch of comet fragments might be more significant than previously believed. As per recent findings, the fragments that hit our planet approximately 13,000 years ago could have shaped human civilization’s origins. As intriguing as that ...
Amateur scientists have assisted astronomers in locating new gaseous planets. Two exoplanets are orbiting a star similar to our sun at 352 light-years away from our planet. Planet B and planet C, as the experts call them, orbit around star ...
If you’re not a fan of doing your laundry at home, as many of us, maybe it’s time to do it somewhere else: high above the atmosphere. While it sounds like a bad joke, it’s actually the new plan of ...
A New Research May Have Found the Reason Why the Giant Star Betelgeuse Experienced a “Great Dimming”
When the popular red supergiant began acting weird, some believed that it was about to go supernova, but scientists now know what is going on! Before the ongoing pandemic became such a headline-catcher, the possibility of the nearby giant star ...
It’s a pretty common misconception that the Chicxulub impactor that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs represents a kind of event that we can see only once in the Earth’s lifetime. But our planet has been here for about ...
As a new study about the world’s biggest ice sheets emerges, we learn that there might be bright days after all. A team of bold researchers led by the University of Michigan released a new report about a doomsday glacier: ...
Ice Memory is a daring ongoing international project enrolled in preserving natural artificats before global warming destroys them. Recent mission witnessed the extraction of the oldest ice in the Alps region, now a significant part of a new study. Here ...
New research has reviewed over 25 years of Antarctic data, finding that ozone concentrations near the ground emerged from human-related sources and natural ones. The levels were higher than expected. Most ozone exists around 9-18 miles above Earth in the ...
Ever got a song playing over and over again until it got stuck in your head? We’ve all been there, and the experience could be not so pleasant. That could happen a lot while we’re awake, and it can be ...
Auroras are natural phenomenons characterized by a display of natural colours like green, yellow, red, or white. At times, it is also referred to as the polar light that frequently appears in the regions of higher altitudes such as the ...
Microplastic pollution threatens not only the environment but our lives, too. If we’re finally trying to solve this problem, we need to raise awareness as much as possible and find some better ways of tracking microplastics. A new study aims ...
Our Solar System’s heliosphere has never looked so great! Thanks to a team of astronomers, we now have the first-ever 3D map of the Solar System’s boundaries. This discovery could help us get a better image of our Solar System’s ...
Scientists revealed they revealed a new species of dinosaur thanks to a ten-year study of bones that were dug up in Australia. Scientists of the Eromanga Natural History Museum and the Queensland Museum conducted the research. The final discovery came ...
As a new study emerges, we learn the truth about discovering Antarctica, and things are not as complicated as previously believed. A team of researchers from New Zealand are finally shedding some light on a century-long question: who was first ...
Many astronomers worry that it’s only a matter of time until another devastating asteroid will smash into Earth, as it happened roughly 66 million years ago when the dinosaurs went extinct. Hopefully or not, most of us won’t be around ...
New research aims to raise awareness of Asia’s current situation. For instance, more than 1 billion people depend on rivers with their headwaters in the mountain ranges, including the Himalayans and Karakoram. Climate change is currently causing mountain snow to ...
Humanity must figure out the climate and nature crises together or solve neither of the two, a report from 50 of the world’s most reputable scientists says. Global warming and the impact we have on wildlife is increasing damage on ...
Venus’ extreme environment where no living creature from Earth would survive has captured the attention of astronomers for a long time. Even so, Venus is known as ‘”Earth’s twin” because of the fact that both planets have similar sizes and ...
A newly released report of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) levels confirms we’re facing a climate crisis. The concentrations of CO2 are so high that scientists believe Earth only experienced a similar event million years ago. The new results are unexpected ...
Considered one of the most powerful forces of nature, tropical cyclones (TCs) can bring extreme havoc on people, animals, the environment, and human populations. So far, experts have strived to improve the TC forecasting method, aiming to save lives. As ...
