• Hubble just captured a glittering star cluster like no other September 11, 2025
  Hubble’s latest image captures a glittering star cluster inside the Large Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy about 160,000 light-years from Earth. This region, known as N11, is one of the galaxy’s largest stellar nurseries where vast clouds of gas and dust give birth to new stars.
• Blocked blood flow makes cancer grow faster September 11, 2025
  Researchers at NYU Langone Health discovered that cutting off blood flow accelerates cancer growth by prematurely aging the bone marrow and weakening the immune system. In mouse models, restricted blood flow doubled the growth rate of breast tumors, mimicking changes seen during aging. The study found that ischemia reprograms bone marrow stem cells, skewing the […]
