A famous “oldest octopus” fossil has been exposed as a case of mistaken identity. Advanced imaging revealed hidden teeth showing it was actually related to a nautilus, not an octopus. The confusion came from decay that altered its shape before fossilization. This discovery rewrites part of evolutionary history, pushing the true origin of octopuses much later in time.

Код бортового управляющего компьютера космического аппарата Аполлон (AGC) — одна из самых тщательно исследованных кодовых баз в истории. Её прочитали тысячи разработчиков. Учёные публиковали статьи о её надёжности. Эмуляторы выполняют её команда за командой. Мы обнаружили в ней баг, который, похоже, оставался незамеченным пятьдесят семь лет: блокировку ресурсов в коде гироскопического управления, приводящую к утечке на ошибочный путь и отключающую возможность изменения положения платформы наведения.Для прео Read more ›

Valve has released a native Steam Link beta for Apple Vision Pro, letting users stream their existing Steam games onto a large virtual screen in visionOS. It supports up to 4K resolution and will let you dynamically adjust the curve of the display. The Mac Observer reports: Steam Link does not support VR titles in this beta, and Valve clearly states that the app is limited to 2D game streaming,... Read more ›

Одним вечером я решил проверить: что если взять решётку из 10 000 узлов, задать одно правило передачи энергии между соседями — и просто запустить? Никакой теоретической физики из учебника, никакой подготовки. Посмотреть что вырастет само.Спойлер: за один день появились волновое уравнение, интерференция, фазовый переход, рождение и аннигиляция частиц, и стрела времени. Всё из одного уравнения.

High in a South American rainforest canopy, scientists have discovered a bizarre new termite species that looks strikingly like a miniature sperm whale. Named Cryptotermes mobydicki, this tiny insect has an elongated head and concealed mandibles that give it an uncanny resemblance to the iconic marine giant. Researchers were so surprised by its unusual appearance that they initially thought it belonged to an entirely new genus. Read more ›

Colorectal cancer may carry a unique microbial “fingerprint,” setting it apart from other cancers and opening a new frontier in diagnosis and treatment. By analyzing DNA from over 9,000 patients, researchers discovered that only colorectal tumors consistently host distinct microbial communities—challenging the long-held belief that all cancers have their own microbial signatures.

A deadly parasite responsible for sleeping sickness has been found using a surprisingly precise trick to stay hidden in the human bloodstream. Scientists discovered a protein called ESB2 that acts like a “molecular shredder,” cutting up specific genetic instructions as they are produced. This allows the parasite to flood its surface with protective proteins while suppressing other signals that might give it away. Read more ›

A new era of lunar exploration has begun as NASA launches four astronauts on Artemis II—the first crewed mission to fly around the Moon in over 50 years. Riding aboard the powerful SLS rocket, the Orion spacecraft is now on a 10-day journey that will test critical systems, push human spaceflight farther than it’s gone in decades, and set the stage for future Moon landings and eventual missions to Mars.

Fusion scientists have solved a long-standing mystery inside tokamaks, the donut-shaped machines designed to harness fusion energy. For years, experiments showed that escaping plasma particles hit one side of the exhaust system far more than the other, but simulations couldn’t explain why. Now, researchers have discovered that the rotation of the plasma itself plays a crucial role—working together with sideways particle drift to create the imbalance. Read more ›

A mysterious Greek inscription found beneath the Great Mosque of Homs could pinpoint the long-debated location of an ancient sun temple. Scholars now think the mosque sits atop a sacred site that transitioned from pagan worship to Christianity and then Islam. The find supports the idea that religious change in the region happened gradually, with overlapping beliefs rather than sudden shifts. It also reconnects the site to the powerful cult... Read more ›

Hara hachi bu, a traditional Japanese practice of eating until you’re about 80% full, is gaining attention as a simple yet powerful way to improve health and reshape our relationship with food. Rather than promoting strict dieting, it encourages slowing down, tuning into hunger cues, and eating with awareness and gratitude. Research suggests it may help reduce calorie intake, support healthier food choices, and prevent long-term weight gain. Read more ›

More than 12,000 years ago, Native American hunter-gatherers were already making and using dice—thousands of years before similar tools appeared elsewhere. These bone “binary lots” acted like primitive coins, producing random outcomes for games of chance. A new study shows these weren’t accidental objects but carefully designed tools used across many regions and cultures. Read more ›

Hundreds of millions of years ago, Earth’s magnetic field behaved in a way that has long baffled scientists, showing wild and seemingly chaotic shifts unlike anything seen before or since. A new study suggests this chaos may actually hide a deeper pattern: instead of random fluctuations, the magnetic field may have followed a global, organized structure. Read more ›

Scientists have taken a major step toward protecting the very cells that make sharp, colorful vision possible. By testing more than 2,700 compounds in thousands of lab-grown human retinal models, researchers uncovered several molecules that can shield cone photoreceptors—the cells responsible for reading, recognizing faces, and seeing color—from degeneration. They also identified a key protective mechanism involving casein kinase 1, offering a promising new target for treatment. Read more ›
