Asteroids don’t come with a warning label that they might one day hit Earth. While we don’t know of any currently on course to do so, we are finding thousands of new ones each year, and there’s always...

MIT PhD candidate Lanie McKinney is developing technology to convert the chemicals in the Martian atmosphere into propellant to bring astronauts home.

Google's first Project Suncatcher AI satellite set to blast off into orbit next week - SiliconANGLE

The Sun’s magnetic fields are a twisty, curvy, ever changing mess. In particular, our star’s polar regions host regions called polar coronal holes that host invisible magnetic highways that stretch ou...

Scientists have known for a while that meteorites contain the “building blocks” of life - complex organic molecules such as amino acids, simple sugars, or even the chemical rungs of DNA. But anyone wh...

Skild reports real-world soccer play after more than 140 years of simulated self-play. Its published account details human-referenced drills before the goal-driven self-play stage.

For many of us, the last—and only—time we've seen a walking hand was Thing in "The Addams Family" movies or TV series. Now there's another. Engineers from the Soft Robotics Lab at ETH Zurich have adap...

A four-legged robot that can complete a marathon on a single battery charge has been demonstrated by a team from KAIST. The robot, which completed the Sangju Marathon in South Korea in 4 hours and 19 ...

With the release of Intrinsic Core, the company is making the key parts of its platform available to robotics developers.

We're bringing on-device privacy to cloud-scale memory. Learn how Private AI Compute's new persistent memory layer protects your data across devices.

We introduce the Endless Exam, a benchmark spanning fourteen parameterised families of mathematical construction problems, with verifiable scores that distinguish progress before and beyond published ...

Stanford and Nvidia's open CLM-8B scores an agent's cached actions instead of generating tokens, cutting latency on tool routing, triage and verification.

At Luna’s prices, routine extraction and summarization can be pushed toward a much cheaper tier. Sol targets recurring coding and agent work at Sonnet-class token pricing. Astra remains available for the hardest jobs.

Anthropic said Claude AI has identified a previously unknown enzyme system that looks remarkably like CRISPR’s gene-editing Cas9. But looks can be deceiving.

The second RITM-200C small modular reactor unit has been manufactured for the floating nuclear power plant destined to supply electricity to a copper mining centre in Chukotka.  ;

Millions of pounds of nutrient-rich ice cream are discarded after production each year, according to the International Dairy Foods Association. Nearly 5% of the raw materials used in ice cream product...

Korean researchers have developed a technology that could make electric-vehicle (EV) batteries smaller and lighter while helping EVs travel farther on a single charge. A KAIST research team has propos...

Oregon State University scientists have patented a better, more environmentally friendly process for separating two metals that are critical in their pure forms for the semiconductor and atomic energy...

It's easy to think of the Moon as the static constant companion in the night sky. Its face hasn’t visibly changed in millennia, and always faces us with the same side. But looks can be deceiving, as o...

Hubble has traveled more than 5 billion miles around Earth over its 36-year lifetime, exceeding 1.7 million total observations. An observation completed on

An international team of astronomers from ASTRON, JIVE, the University of Amsterdam and other institutions has found the first so-called "microblazar" in the Milky Way. This stellar system is composed...

More and more details about 3I/ATLAS are filtering through the scientific process as time goes on. Our third known interstellar visitor attracted the attention of some of the world's most powerful obs...

AI agents are not yet creative enough to carry out genuinely innovative open-ended AI research, it seems.

Accumulated scientific knowledge advances inquiry when prior findings help researchers choose new questions, design investigations, and interpret results. Realizing this value at scale requires access...

Xiaomi demonstrates MiMo taking text, images or video and coordinating multiple agents to create playable 3D worlds, construct scenes, implement interaction logic, inspect rendered output and iteratively refine the result.

The aging brain is often viewed through a lens of cognitive decline, with older adults seen as compensating for their fading memory. New research challenges that view.

W. David Arnold identified a breakdown in communication between nerves and muscles that could lead to new treatments for age-related weakness.

Patients engaging in intermittent fasting demonstrated improvements in Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative condition currently considered untreatable.

Transplanted immune cells donate their mitochondria to neighboring donor cells, improving energy production and rescuing function.

In a new study, thymic tissue implanted in the spleen improved immune responses against viruses and tumors and reversed age-related thymic involution in mice.

Zhang, Chen, Monticolo, Sorrentino and colleagues pair label-free Raman imaging with spatial and single-cell transcriptomics to probe biochemical signatures of senescence in aging and repair, identify...

Twelve candidate indicators, based on studies in mice, could make developing anti-aging interventions faster—while offering new insights into age-related diseases. 

The paper introduces three interconnected resources for the global scientific community: LongevityBench, the first open benchmark designed to rigorously evaluate AI reasoning across multiple domains ...

Signal is finally cutting the cord between private messaging and the phone company.
