Alien Spaceships Could Be Detected Using Gravitational Waves
The concept of space-time makes Star Trek-style warp drives theoretically possible, and researchers have proposed a way of detecting their use......»»
Study models dinoflagellate light in breaking waves
A new study led by Scripps Institution of Oceanography demonstrates, for the first time, how scientists can use computer simulations to quantify the light emitted by dinoflagellates when they flash in breaking waves and create stunning displays of bi.....»»
New extended and faint tidal tail discovered
By analyzing the data from the Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey (DECaLS), astronomers have discovered a new tidal tail likely associated with the galaxy NGC 3785. The newly detected tidal tail is extremely extended and faint. The finding was reported.....»»
Taiwan battens down for Super Typhoon Kong-rey
Five-meter waves pounded Taiwan's shores Wednesday as Super Typhoon Kong-rey drew near, with forecasters expecting the storm to strengthen before hitting the island as one of the most powerful in years......»»
A global imbalance in reference genomes: Research highlights need for sequencing resources in biodiversity-rich areas
Montana State University and Universidad de los Andes researchers have detected a significant imbalance in the distribution of tetrapod reference genomes. They find a disproportionate concentration of studies in high-latitude regions compared to wher.....»»
Are we drowning out the sounds of the sea?
The sound of waves gently crashing is one of the most relaxing noises. But beneath the surface, things are far less peaceful......»»

Ion engines could take us to the solar gravitational lens in less than 13 years, suggests paper
Sending an object to another star is still the stuff of science fiction. But some concrete missions could get us at least part way there. These "interstellar precursor missions" include a trip to the solar gravitational lens point at 550 AU from the.....»»
A secret Predator movie? An Alien: Romulus sequel? 20th Century Studios’ boss teases future
In a recent interview, the president of 20th Century Studios teased a secret Predator movie and an Alien: Romulus sequel......»»
Teachers try a different preschool curriculum to prevent youth crime—checking in 20 years later, it worked
There's been an increased political and media focus recently on so-called youth crime waves, particularly in Queensland and the Northern Territory......»»
Poaching suspected as camera traps find only 11 Sumatran tigers in 2 years
Camera-trap monitoring detected only 11 individual Sumatran tigers (Panthera tigris sumatrae) and no cubs between 2020 and 2022 in the Ulu Masen Ecosystem, Sumatra Island, Indonesia, reports a paper published in Scientific Reports. The high proportio.....»»
Astronomers discover a bright pulse that may be a fast radio burst
Searching for pulsars using the Large Phased Array (LPA) radio telescope, Russian astronomers have detected a bright pulse at a frequency of 111 MHz, which appears to be a fast radio burst event. The finding was reported in a research paper published.....»»

River flow responses to heat waves may change more rapidly under climate change, research finds
A pair of studies by researchers in Simon Fraser University's School of Environmental Science examine how climate change could alter the way Canadian rivers respond to extreme heat events......»»
How bioacoustics and AI can help study animal populations in the forest and beneath the waves
Animal sounds combined with artificial intelligence (AI) can revolutionize biodiversity monitoring both on land and in aquatic settings according to researchers from the University of Copenhagen. By analyzing wildlife sounds, AI can now identify spec.....»»
Seismic anisotropy in the deep mantle could partly be derived from the deformation of hydrous phase D
Shear waves split into fast and slow waves when they travel through elastically anisotropic media, and the anisotropy of the seismic velocity is recorded by seismic stations. In the Earth's deep interior, this is usually interpreted as the effect of.....»»
Internet fiber optic cables successfully detect shock waves from a rockslide
On the night of 16 June 2023, about 1.2 million cubic meters of rock rumbled down into the valley near Brienz (GR). A team from the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL and ETH Zurich tracked the event using an unusual.....»»
NASA reveals prototype telescope for gravitational wave observatory
NASA has revealed the first look at a full-scale prototype for six telescopes that will enable, in the next decade, the space-based detection of gravitational waves—ripples in space-time caused by merging black holes and other cosmic sources......»»
A blueprint for mapping melting ice sheets: Open-source tool can help make radar systems at a fraction of the cost
Researchers in the Stanford Radio Glaciology lab use radio waves to understand rapidly changing ice sheets and their contributions to global sea-level rise. This technique has revealed groundwater beneath Greenland, the long-term impacts of extreme m.....»»
Alan Wake 2’s Lake House DLC takes cues from Annihilation and Alien
