The Brain Literally Starts Eating Itself When It Doesn’t Get Enough Sleep
The reason we sleep goes far beyond simply replenishing our energy levels every 12 hours - our brains actually change states when we sleep to clear away the toxic byproducts of neural activity left behind during the day. Weirdly enough, the same process starts to occur in brains that are...

Astronomers Have Finally Pinpointed The Source of One of Those Mysterious Cosmic Radio Bursts
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are arguably the weirdest phenomena in our Universe right now. They’re some of the most explosive signals ever detected in space, generating as much energy as 500 million Suns in mere milliseconds, but scientists have been struggling to explain them. Now, astronomers have pinpointed the exact...

Ineffective antibiotics form strong teams against deadly super bacteria
In the fight against super bacteria, University at Buffalo scientists are relying on strength in numbers to win the battle against drug resistance. A team of researchers found that combinations of three antibiotics — that are each ineffective against superbugs when used alone — are capable of eradicating two of...

A New And Unusual Force in The Universe Just Got Even Stranger
New research has expanded on the discovery of a strange phenomenon called blackbody force, showing that the effect of radiation on particles surrounding massive objects can be magnified by the space that warps around them. The find could affect how we model the formation of stars and planets, and even help us...

Turns Out, Snakes Can Hunt in Packs, So Let’s Just All Move to Antarctica
Snake hive mind If you ever had the misfortune of being hunted by a snake, in spite of everything, you could consider yourself lucky - at least it’s not an entire nest of serpents teaming up to run you down and devour your flesh. While scientists have never really been sure if...

We Need to Prepare for a World Without Aging
Modern science is bringing us ever closer to a day when aging is no longer a concern. However, with our increasing life-spans come challenges and questions we must be prepared to face. Humans have always been fascinated by the prospect of long life. For a classic take on this idea...

Supernova Face-Off May Solve 40-Year-Old Antimatter Mystery
The majority of antimatter that pervades the Milky Way may come from clashing remnants of dead stars, a new study finds. The work may solve a 40-year-old astrophysics mystery, the study’s researchers said. For every particle of normal matter, there is an antimatter counterpart with the opposite electrical charge but...

Stanislav Petrov: The man who may have saved the world
Thirty years ago, on 26 September 1983, the world was saved from potential nuclear disaster. In the early hours of the morning, the Soviet Union’s early-warning systems detected an incoming missile strike from the United States. Computer readouts suggested several missiles had been launched. The protocol for the Soviet military...

Weird energy beam seems to travel five times the speed of light
Please welcome to the stage a master illusionist. An energy beam that stabs out of galaxy M87 like a toothpick in a cocktail olive is pulling off the ultimate magic trick: seeming to move faster than the speed of light. Almost five times faster, in fact, as measured by the...

Scientists Assert That We Will Make Contact With Aliens in the Next Decade
Technical advances in space exploration and science are driving the increased likelihood of making contact with extraterrestrial life. Contact with alien life, especially if it happens soon, has the potential to transform humanity entirely. Both the most cynical person on Earth and the world’s greatest optimist could easily look at...

Astronomers scramble as ‘alien megastructure’ star dims again
The most famously weird star in our galaxy is acting up again. On Friday, 19 May, Tabby’s star began to dim, carrying on a history of mysterious dips in brightness. Astronomers are scrambling to point as many telescopes as possible at the star, which is 1,300 light-years away in the...

Plasma jet engines that could take you from the ground to space
Forget fuel-powered jet engines. We’re on the verge of having aircraft that can fly from the ground up to the edge of space using air and electricity alone. Traditional jet engines create thrust by mixing compressed air with fuel and igniting it. The burning mixture expands rapidly and is blasted...

18 Science Facts We Didn’t Know at The Start of 2017
1. Lungs don’t just facilitate respiration - they also make blood. Mammalian lungs produce more than 10 million platelets (tiny blood cells) per hour, which equates to the majority of platelets circulating the body. 2. It is mathematically possible to build an actual time machine - what’s holding us back...

Huge impact could have smashed early Earth into a doughnut shape
For a brief time during its infancy, Earth was not a planet. It was a hot, doughnut-shaped blob called a synestia. Rocky worlds can be pulverised by collisions with each other, mushrooming into synestias before cooling off and becoming more familiar-looking celestial spheres, a new study says. Worlds across...

Robotic turtles can be used to detect landmines in the desert
When it comes to detecting landmines, being slow is an advantage. Swarms of robotic sea turtles teaching themselves to crawl in the Arizona desert could one day be used to help clear landmines in war zones. The military already has minesweeping robots, but their bulk makes them costly and difficult...

A “Molecular Condom” Could Be the Future of Male Contraception
Researchers at UC Berkley have found a way to block the channels that give sperm cells a ’power kick’ to penetrate the egg cell wall. There have also been other promising suggestions over the last two years. In a paper published last week in PNAS, researchers at UC Berkley have...

Google’s New AI Is Better at Creating AI Than the Company’s Engineers
One of the more noteworthy remarks to come out of Google I/O ’17 conference this week was CEO Sundar Pichai recalling how his team had joked that they have achieved “AI inception” with AutoML. Instead of crafting layers of dreams like in the Christopher Nolan flick, however, the AutoML system layers artificial intelligence (AI),...

Scientists Have Identified 40 New Genes Linked to Intelligence
Scientists have discovered 40 new genes that appear to be linked to intelligence, and the find could help neurologists understand how the human brain develops key functions associated with thinking. While the influence of these genes on intelligence is expected to be “minuscule”- a wide variety of factors are known to...

Scientists Have Stabilised a One-Dimensional Metallic Material in a World-First Experiment
It’s one atom thick. Researchers have constructed the world’s thinnest metallic nanowire, creating a stable string of the chemical element tellurium, that measures just one atom thick. The team behind the nanowire says the material is the most precisely configured ’one-dimensional’ system yet, and the technique used to produce the...

Scientists Have Discovered a ‘Puffy’ Exoplanet With The Density of Styrofoam
The Universe just keeps on getting stranger. Astronomers have found a giant exoplanet larger than Jupiter, but with extremely low mass - a composition that gives this mysterious ’puffy planet’ a density very similar to styrofoam. The team who found KELT-11b, which orbits a star located about 320 light-years from Earth,...

A Bioengineered 'Pancreas' Has Ended One Diabetic's Need For Insulin
Even the most exciting breakthrough medical treatment can be rendered obsolete by a particularly insurmountable obstacle: time.
If a treatment only works temporarily, it has little chance of making a significant difference in the lives of patients, which is why the latest news from the University of Miami's Diabetes Research Institute is so exciting.
A year after transplanting insulin-producing islet cells into the omentum of a woman with a particularly unwieldy form of type 1 diabetes, the cells continue to operate as hoped.
She no longer needs to receive insulin via injections or an insulin pump and is in good health....

New 3D-Printed Ovaries Have Allowed Infertile Mice to Give Birth
Human trials are on the cards. Infertile mice have been given the ability to birth healthy offspring, thanks to new 3D-printed ovaries that connected with the animals’ blood supply in just one week, and started releasing eggs. Researchers now plan on testing these artificial ovaries in pigs, and if all...
