A sweeping analysis of 540 million years of marine fossils has revealed surprising gaps in our understanding of Earth's ancient life. Scientists discovered that some of the greatest opportunities for finding previously unknown species lie in ...

Researchers have discovered that a familiar tropical butterfly actually belongs to three nearly identical species, including one previously unknown to science. Hidden ultraviolet wing patterns and DNA differences revealed the truth, leaving ...

An NIH study found that women with high levels of two common "forever chemicals" had up to 93% higher rates of an aggressive form of breast cancer. The discovery raises concerns about the potential health effects of persistent chemicals found in ...

Earth's water may have been born in the planet's fiery atmosphere rather than delivered by icy comets or asteroids. Scientists discovered that rocky pebbles reacting with hydrogen under extreme heat can produce water in minutes, potentially ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising way that fructose, a sugar commonly found in sweetened foods and drinks, may help aggressive ovarian cancer spread. Researchers discovered that cancer cells surviving chemotherapy release fructose that weakens . ...

A groundbreaking new supercomputer simulation is revealing how the universe escaped its cosmic dark age and transformed into a cosmos filled with stars and galaxies. Called Lumina, it recreates 2 billion years of early cosmic history across a region ...

Researchers have created a quantum computer that stores information in microscopic vibrations, potentially making quantum machines smaller, more powerful, and better at preserving information. The breakthrough successfully demonstrated advanced ...

NASA's Parker Solar Probe has revealed a surprising secret hidden within the chaos of space: turbulent magnetic fields reverse their direction of rotation when examined at extremely small scales. The discovery exposes an unexpected pattern in solar . ...

A surprising new study suggests that walking, jogging, and even traditional weight training may be less effective at stimulating bone formation than high-intensity sports involving explosive movements and sudden changes in direction. Researchers ...

Scientists have discovered that the first animals to venture onto land nearly 380 million years ago had surprisingly stiff necks, overturning a long-standing theory about evolution. Rather than evolving to help animals turn their heads, necks may ...
