A mysterious form of plague that spread across Eurasia thousands of years before the Black Death has finally revealed a crucial clue. Scientists analyzing ancient DNA discovered the bacterium Yersinia pestis in a 4,000-year-old domesticated sheep from a Bronze Age settlement in the Ural Mountains—the first time the pathogen has ever been found in a non-human host from that era. Because this early strain couldn’t spread through fleas like the medieval plague, researchers have long puzzled over how it travele

Что там с МС-21

В 2009 году на авиасалоне МАКС показали макет нового российского самолёта. Белый, длинный, красивый с широченным салоном и композитным крылом, которого ни у кого в этом классе ещё не было. Назвали МС-21 — «Магистральный Самолёт XXI века». Обещали: серийное производство в 2016-м. Через семь лет вы будете на нём летать!Прошло семнадцать. Читать далее Read more

Согласно новому исследованию, посвящённому опасностям, связанным с тем, что ИИ говорит людям то, что они хотят услышать, чат-боты на базе искусственного интеллекта настолько склонны льстить своим пользователям и соглашаться с ними, что дают плохие советы, способные нанести ущерб отношениям и усугубить вредные модели поведения.В исследовании, опубликованном в четверг в журнале Science, были протестированы 11 ведущих систем ИИ, и было обнаружено, что все они в той или иной степени демонстрировали льстивое...

Aging men often lose the Y chromosome in a growing number of their cells—and it may be far more dangerous than once believed. This loss has been linked to heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and shorter lifespans. Researchers suspect Y-less cells may grow faster and disrupt normal body functions. What seemed like a minor genetic quirk could actually be a major driver of age-related disease. Read more

Scientists have uncovered the oldest direct evidence yet that Earth’s tectonic plates were on the move 3.5 billion years ago. By analyzing magnetic fingerprints in ancient rocks, they reconstructed how parts of the planet slowly drifted and even rotated over time. This challenges long-standing ideas that early Earth may have had a rigid, unmoving surface. Instead, it suggests the planet was already dynamic—and possibly setting the stage for life—much earlier... Read more

A routine quantum optics technique just revealed an extraordinary secret: entangled light can carry incredibly complex topological structures. Researchers found these hidden patterns reach up to 48 dimensions, offering a vast new “alphabet” for encoding quantum information. Unlike previous assumptions, this topology can emerge from a single property of light—orbital angular momentum. Read more

Scientists at Harvard have built a miniature device that can twist and tune light in real time. By rotating two stacked photonic crystals and adjusting their spacing with a tiny mechanical system, they can control how light’s “handedness” behaves. This allows the chip to distinguish between left- and right-circular polarized light with remarkable precision. The advance could lead to smarter sensors, faster communications, and new quantum technologies. Read more

Researchers have discovered that cancer spread isn’t random—it follows a kind of biological “program.” By studying colon tumor cells, they identified gene patterns that signal whether a cancer is likely to metastasize. Their AI model, MangroveGS, can predict this risk with about 80% accuracy and even works across multiple cancer types. This could transform how doctors decide who needs aggressive treatment and who doesn’t. Read more
