Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have found evidence that Nereid, one of Neptune’s most distant moons, likely formed alongside the planet rather than being captured from deep space. The findings support the idea that Nereid may be the final surviving member of Neptune’s original......
Scientists have demonstrated that environmental DNA floating in seawater can reveal both the presence of dolphin species and the genetic health of their populations. The finding marks a major step in marine conservation, offering a non-invasive way to monitor cetaceans without capturing or physically......
The SMILE spacecraft, a joint mission between the European Space Agency and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has successfully launched from the European spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana, marking the first flagship scientific collaboration between the two space institutions focused on Earth’s......
China is preparing to launch a new crewed space mission in the coming days, marking another step in its expanding space exploration program. According to the China Manned Space Agency, the Shenzhou-23 spacecraft, carried by a Long March 2F rocket, has been moved to the launch tower at the Jiuquan Satellite......
An asteroid newly identified as 2026 JH2 is set to pass close to Earth on 18 May, reaching a distance of about 90,000 kilometers from the planet’s surface. That brings it closer than some satellites in higher Earth orbits, though scientists confirm there is no risk of impact. The object was detected......
An international team of astronomers has used the James Webb Space Telescope to identify the oldest primitive star-forming galaxy ever observed, offering a rare glimpse into the universe just 800 million years after the Big Bang. The galaxy, known as LAP1-B, contains oxygen levels estimated at only 1/240th......
SpaceX is aiming for 19 May to conduct the first flight of Starship Version 3 from its Starbase facility in Texas. The mission, identified as Flight 12, will mark the debut of the upgraded launch system and the first use of the newly constructed Launch Pad 2, representing a major milestone in the company’s......
Researchers have produced the first comprehensive map of the brain’s histaminergic system, identifying a strong overlap between histamine-related gene activity and regions involved in major psychiatric conditions. The study, published in Nature Mental Health, links these brain areas to attention......
NASA has unveiled a new collection of images captured by the Mars rover Perseverance, including a sweeping panorama of a region known as Arbot and the rover’s sixth selfie since landing on the Red Planet in 2021. The visuals were taken during the rover’s farthest westward journey beyond the......
Scientists searching for life beyond Earth have developed a new statistical approach that could improve the detection of biological activity on planets and icy moons such as Mars, Europa, and Enceladus. Instead of focusing on identifying specific molecules linked to life, the method examines how those......
Researchers at Delft University of Technology have demonstrated for the first time that two-qubit logic gates can be performed on mobile electron spins traveling across a silicon chip — a breakthrough published in Nature on May 6, 2026, that could reshape the roadmap toward large-scale quantum......
An international consortium of more than 60 researchers has identified 1,785 previously unknown microproteins embedded in segments of human DNA long assumed to be functionally inert. The discovery, published Wednesday in the journal Nature, could expand the known human proteome by nearly 10 percent,......
Primitive microbes were using molybdenum, a metal that was extremely scarce in the oxygen-poor oceans of early Earth, billions of years before it became widely available, according to a new study published in Nature Communications. The finding challenges a long-standing assumption that life first depended......
