The Gulf Stream is on the Verge of Collapse, Scientists Warn of Imminent Consequences

The Gulf Stream is on the Verge of Collapse, Scientists Warn of Imminent Consequences

A groundbreaking study led by Edward Forman at the University of Southampton and James Baldini at Durham University has used the unique method of analyzing stalagmites in Bermuda’s caves to track changes in the Gulf Stream over centuries. Published in Nature Communications Earth & Environment, this research reveals crucial information about the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and how it …

People who live to 100 all share a ‘superhuman’ ability, scientists discover… could YOU be one of them?

People who live to 100 all share a ‘superhuman’ ability, scientists discover… could YOU be one of them?

People who live to 100 appear to have a ‘superhuman’ ability to avoid major illnesses, according to new research. Two large studies of older adults in Sweden have found that centenarians tend to develop fewer diseases, accumulate them more slowly, and in many cases avoid the most deadly age-related conditions altogether—despite living far longer than their peers. The work, published …

Chinese scientists develop machine to turn lunar dust into bricks

Chinese scientists develop machine to turn lunar dust into bricks

The device operates like a 3D printer but replaces conventional heat sources with concentrated solar energy. A parabolic reflector gathers sunlight and channels it through fibre optic bundles, intensifying the light to more than 3,000 times the strength of sunlight at Earth’s surface. At the focal point, temperatures exceed 1,300°C, hot enough to melt regolith into solid, dense shapes. Tests …

Scientists Fed One Group of People Ultraprocessed Foods and Another Group Whole Foods, and the Difference in What Happened to Them Was Wild

Scientists Fed One Group of People Ultraprocessed Foods and Another Group Whole Foods, and the Difference in What Happened to Them Was Wild

As the industrial food system pushes ultraprocessed foods to every corner of the globe, new research shows that even seemingly healthy packaged meals may fall short of the benefits offered by whole, minimally processed foods. A fascinating new study published in Nature Medicine dove into the real-world effects ultraprocessed foods have on the human body. Following a six-month clinical trial involving 55 volunteers, …
