- Our solar system has a new interstellar visitor: Meet 3I/ATLAS August 30, 2025Astronomers have spotted 3I/ATLAS, just the third interstellar object ever seen in our solar system. Bigger, faster, and possibly far older than ‘Oumuamua or Borisov, this icy traveler could help unlock clues about how other star systems formed billions of years ago.
- In the dark for 11 million years: How blind cavefish rewrote evolution August 30, 2025Yale scientists discovered that cavefish species independently evolved blindness and depigmentation as they adapted to dark cave environments, with some lineages dating back over 11 million years. This new genetic method not only reveals ancient cave ages but may also shed light on human eye diseases.
- Scientists discover armored “goblin monster” in prehistoric Utah August 29, 2025Scientists have identified a new giant lizard, Bolg amondol, from Utah’s Kaiparowits Formation, named after Tolkien’s goblin prince. Part of the monstersaur lineage, Bolg reveals that multiple large lizards coexisted with dinosaurs, suggesting a thriving ecosystem. Its discovery in long-stored fossils underscores how museums hold hidden scientific gems.
- 70-million-year-old crocodile relative with dinosaur-crushing jaws found in Argentina August 29, 2025Seventy million years ago, southern Patagonia was home to dinosaurs, turtles, and mammals—but also to a fierce crocodile-like predator. A newly discovered fossil, astonishingly well-preserved, reveals Kostensuchus atrox, a powerful 3.5-meter-long apex predator with crushing jaws and sharp teeth capable of devouring medium-sized dinosaurs. As one of the largest hunters of its time and the […]
- Scientists create scalable quantum node linking light and matter August 29, 2025Quantum scientists in Innsbruck have taken a major leap toward building the internet of the future. Using a string of calcium ions and finely tuned lasers, they created quantum nodes capable of generating streams of entangled photons with 92% fidelity. This scalable setup could one day link quantum computers across continents, enable unbreakable communication, and […]
