YouTube Samples are Here to Help You Keep Discovering Your Next Jam
YouTube Music is adding a new discovery tool that is rolling out today. Called “Samples,” you’ll find a new tab in the app that works a lot like Reels in Instagram, where you can flip through short clips with a swipe and then take a.....»»
YouTube Rolls out New “Samples” Feature
The new feature will function in a similar way of sorts to YouTube Shorts. YouTube has gone through massive changes over the years, evolving from a simple video-sharing website to a richer content platform, dealing in both videos and m.....»»
Ryugu asteroid origins in the solar nebula decoded by carbonates
Japan's Aerospace Exploration Agency sent the Hayabusa2 spacecraft to 162173 Ryugu in 2019, an asteroid in orbit near Earth that is comprised of rocky fragments originating from a larger parent body. Multiple rovers brought samples from the asteroid'.....»»
New algorithm captures complex 3D light scattering information from live specimens
Researchers have developed a new algorithm for recovering the 3D refractive index distribution of biological samples that exhibit multiple types of light scattering. The algorithm helps optimize a new imaging approach called intensity diffraction tom.....»»
Images of enzyme in action reveal secrets of antibiotic-resistant bacteria
Bacteria draw from an arsenal of weapons to combat the drugs intended to kill them. Among the most prevalent of these weapons are ribosome-modifying enzymes. These enzymes are growing increasingly common, appearing worldwide in clinical samples in a.....»»

Quantum-enhanced non-interferometric quantitative phase imaging
Optical phase retrieval and imaging appear in a wide variety of science fields, such as imaging of quasi-transparent biological samples or nanostructures metrological characterization, for example, in the semiconductor industry. At a fundamental leve.....»»
Alarm as seawater heats up off Florida Keys, imperiling reef
Super-heated seawater off the Florida Keys has grown so perilous to the world's third-largest barrier reef that scientists are now removing samples of coral from ocean nurseries to place in cooler land-based tanks......»»
Reducing contamination in single-molecule DNA extraction using nanopore technology
Single-molecule DNA detection using nanopore technology offers real-time analysis of DNA and RNA strands. It is a low-cost and flexible technique that can be used in clinical and research settings when samples need to be analyzed quickly and efficien.....»»
Physics informed supervised learning framework could make computational imaging faster
Computational imaging techniques are growing more popular, but the large number of measurements they require often lead to slow speeds or damage to biological samples. A newly developed physics-informed variational autoencoder (P-VAE) framework could.....»»
After bopping an asteroid 3 years ago, NASA will finally see the results

"Man in the Moon" Older Than Scientists Thought
Revisiting the precious lunar samples on Earth suggests that some areas of the moon’s surface might be older than scientists once thought.....»»
Greenland has greener history than previously thought
New analysis of samples collected from underneath Greenland's ice sheet reveal the Arctic island was much greener as recently as 416,000 years ago. The findings overturn previous views that Greenland's continental glacier, which covers about 80 perce.....»»
Preserved presolar silicate grains found in Ryugu samples
A large international team of space scientists and geochemists has found preserved presolar silicate grains in surface samples collected from the Ryugu asteroid by the Japanese space probe Hayabusa2 in 2018 and 2019 and returned to Earth in 2020. In.....»»
Inside the crazy plan to scoop up and bring home a bit of the Venus atmosphere
Most missions collect samples and analyze them in situ with relatively basic instruments. This mission takes a totally different approach......»»
