More than a decade after Hurricane Sandy flooded the East Coast and killed over 200 people, a new study has revealed the storm’s lasting impact on mortality risk among older adults. The researchers linked hurricane flood exposure to a 9% increase in risk of death for people over the age of 65 who continued living in the area after landfall. …

In a groundbreaking study published in Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers, researchers have uncovered a curious biological boundary in the ocean that seems to separate two distinct types of jellyfish, despite their genetic similarities. The study, led by marine biologist Javier Montenegro of the University of Western Australia, explores the deep waters of the North Atlantic Ocean, …

A groundbreaking discovery in southern China has revealed a 400-mile-long chain of extinct volcanoes buried deep below the Sichuan Basin, a region historically part of the Yangtze Block. The findings, outlined in a recent study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, shed light on the ancient volcanic activity that took place during the early breakup of the supercontinent …

In June 2025, data from NASA’s Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 confirmed a dramatic finding: a region at the edge of the heliosphere with temperatures between 30,000 and 50,000 kelvin. Often described as a “wall of fire,” this boundary—known as the heliopause—marks where the Sun’s solar wind collides with the interstellar medium. The discovery provides an unprecedented look at the …

Scientists have discovered that building muscle could serve as a natural alternative to Viagra. A team of researchers from the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, went about exploring the link between muscle quality and erectile dysfunction (ED), suffered by more than 18million men in the US over the age of 20. ED includes the inability to get an erection or the …

More than 10 million people worldwide are living with Parkinson’s disease, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that leads to symptoms such as tremors, slow movement, limb stiffness, and balance issues. Scientists still don’t know what causes the disease, but it’s thought to develop due to a complex mixture of genetic and environmental factors, and treatment is still quite limited. But new research is putting …

IN A NUTSHELL 🌊 Ancient fossils discovered beneath Indonesian seas reveal insights into early human life in Southeast Asia. 🔍 Over 6,000 fossil specimens, including Komodo dragons and Stegodon, were uncovered during reclamation activities. 🏞️ Geological analysis highlights a submerged river system that supported a diverse ecosystem during the late Middle Pleistocene. 🧠 Findings suggest advanced hunting techniques by early …

A team of archaeologists has stumbled upon a discovery that will reshape our understanding of early human life in Southeast Asia. Deep beneath the ocean floor off the coast of Indonesia, a remarkable collection of fossils has been uncovered, dating back more than 140,000 years. This find, confirmed by ScienceDirect, paints a vivid picture of a world that once thrived …

A novel approach to the search for a long theorized fifth force of nature—one that could potentially help scientists unravel lingering mysteries involving the Standard Model of particle physics—is being undertaken by physicists in Switzerland. Among these mysteries, the quest to resolve the elusive nature of dark matter, as well as the ongoing search for new particles and other discoveries …
