Mutations from Space Might Solve an Antibiotic Crisis
If humans are ever going to expand into space itself, it will have to be for a reason. Optimists think that reason is simply due to our love of exploration itself. But in history, it is more often a profit motive that has led humans to…

Scientists may be approaching a ‘fundamental breakthrough in cosmology and particle physics’, if dark matter and ‘ghost particles’ can interact
Two of the universe’s most mysterious particles may be colliding invisibly throughout the cosmos — a discovery that could solve one of the biggest lingering problems in our standard model of cosmology.
Those two elusive components — dark…

Wobbling exoplanet hints at a hidden exomoon so massive it could redefine the word ‘moon’ altogether
A gas giant planet beyond the solar that wobbles as it circles its star, hinting to astronomers that it is orbited by its own moon. To make this suspected discovery even more remarkable, if this moon exists it would be absolutely massive,…

Physicists challenge a 200-year-old law of thermodynamics at the atomic scale
Two physicists at the University of Stuttgart have demonstrated that the Carnot principle, a foundational rule of thermodynamics, does not fully apply at the atomic scale when particles are physically linked (so-called correlated objects). Their…

After 11 years of research, scientists unlock a new weakness in deadly fungi
Fungal infections claim millions of lives every year, yet treatment options have failed to keep pace with the growing danger. Scientists at McMaster University now report a discovery that could shift that balance. They have identified a molecule…
