Trump Administration Will Not Move Embassy In Israel To Jerusalem: Report
According to Israeli news website NRG, President Donald Trump has informed his Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu of his decision to keep the embassy in Tel Aviv. → Read More
Supermassive Black Holes In Merging Galaxies Are Shrouded In A Thick Sphere Of Gas And Dust
Observations made using NASA's NuSTAR telescope have revealed that supermassive black holes in merging galaxies do most of their feeding during the later stages of galactic mergers, when they're heavily obscured. → Read More
Climate Change Is Causing The Dissolved Oxygen In World's Oceans To Plummet
A new analysis of nearly five decades of data has revealed the oceans' dissolved oxygen levels started dropping in the 1980s as global temperatures began to climb. → Read More
Wildlife Conservation: World's Richest Nations Aren't Doing Enough To Save Large Mammals From Extinction
A team of researchers has found a marked variation among countries in contributions to the conservation of world’s large mammal population, with poorer countries taking a more active approach than their richer counterparts. → Read More
Noise Pollution: Even America's Protected Areas Are Not Safe From Human-Caused Racket
A study of 492 protected sites around the continental U.S. revealed that in nearly two-thirds of these areas, noise from human activities was twice as high as natural background sound levels. → Read More
Analysis Of Global Warming 'Hiatus' Confirms, Once Again, That Humans Are Driving Climate Change
A fresh analysis of the apparent slowdown in the rate of rise of global temperatures between 1998 and 2012 has shown that the phenomenon was the result of natural short-term variability that does not affect long-term climate projections. → Read More
The Language You Speak Affects How Your Brain Experiences The Passage Of Time
Experiments conducted by a team of linguists suggest people who fluently speak two languages think about time differently than those who speak only one. → Read More
Ancient Human DNA Recovered From Caves Containing No Skeletal Remains
The breakthrough could lead to the creation of techniques that may allow scientists to study humans' evolutionary history without relying solely on hard-to-find skeletal remains. → Read More
Astronomers Study Ripples In The Cosmic Web Using A Pair Of Distant Quasars
These observations could provide crucial insights into the scarcely understood reionization phase of the universe, and help understand the events that led to the birth of the first galaxies. → Read More
Astronomers Discover Earth’s Cold Twin Orbiting A Faint Star 13,000 Light-Years Away
The exoplanet discovered using a technique called microlensing, is approximately the size of Earth, but is far, far colder. → Read More
Heliosphere, Our Sun's Sphere Of Influence, Is Not Shaped Like A Comet
Analysis of Cassini and Voyager data has revealed that this gigantic bubble of charged particles powered by solar winds may be more spherical than previously thought. → Read More
Does Dark Matter Exist? Computer Simulations Of Formation Of Galaxies Suggest It Does
A team of researchers has, using simulations to model the behavior and evolution of galaxies, shown that the presence of dark matter can explain the diverse population of galaxies in the present-day universe. → Read More
How Do Planets Form? 'Hamburger'-Shaped Accretion Disk Around Nearby Young Star Could Provide Key Insights
The accretion disk, whose shape has now been revealed in unprecedented detail, could shed light on how stars and planets form and evolve. → Read More
In A First, Gravitational Lens Reveals Magnified And Multiplied Images Of A Type 1a Supernova

A 'Higher' State Of Consciousness? Psychedelics Boost Brain's Signal Diversity, Scans Reveal
Scientists have, for the first time, uncovered evidence of a "higher" state of consciousness — one induced by psychedelics like LSD and psilocybin. → Read More
Hydrogen Gas In Milky Way's Halo May Explain Where Its Missing Mass Is
This cloud of hydrogen gas — whose existence has previously been hypothesized based on observations of other galaxies — could account for the Milky Way’s missing baryonic mass. → Read More
Climate Change And 'River Piracy': Glacier Melt Causes Canada's Slims River To Vanish In Just Four Days
Over the course of just a few days last spring, a river fed by a melting glacier in Canada’s Yukon region completely changed course. → Read More
Scientists Create Graphene-Based Sieve That Removes Salt From Seawater
The breakthrough has the potential to revolutionize water filtration — especially in countries that sorely lack access to clean drinking water. → Read More
