  • Common heart drug taken by millions found useless, possibly risky August 31, 2025
    Beta blockers, used for decades after heart attacks, provide no benefit for patients with preserved heart function, according to the REBOOT trial. The massive study also found women faced higher risks when taking the drug. Experts say the results will change heart treatment guidelines worldwide.
  • Geologists got it wrong: Rivers didn’t need plants to meander August 31, 2025
    Stanford researchers reveal meandering rivers existed long before plants, overturning textbook geology. Their findings suggest carbon-rich floodplains shaped climate for billions of years.
  • Scientists stunned as strange islands and hidden springs appear in the Great Salt Lake August 31, 2025
    As the Great Salt Lake shrinks, scientists are uncovering mysterious groundwater-fed oases hidden beneath its drying lakebed. Reed-covered mounds and strange surface disturbances hint at a vast underground plumbing system that pushes fresh water up under pressure. Using advanced tools like airborne electromagnetic surveys and piezometers, researchers are mapping the hidden freshwater reserves and testing […]
  • Scientists uncover wildfire paradox that’s putting 440 million people in danger August 31, 2025
    A massive global study uncovered a striking paradox: even as total burned land has dropped by more than a quarter since 2002, human exposure to wildfires has skyrocketed. Africa accounts for a staggering 85% of these exposures, while California stands out as an extreme hotspot despite its relatively small share of burned land. Climate change […]
  • NASA’s Webb Telescope just found 300 galaxies that defy explanation August 31, 2025
    Astronomers at the University of Missouri, using the James Webb Space Telescope, have uncovered 300 unusually bright cosmic objects that may be some of the earliest galaxies ever formed. By applying techniques like infrared imaging, dropout analysis, and spectral energy distribution fitting, the team has identified candidates that could force scientists to rethink how galaxies […]
