Science is the backbone of our society. The robust and sustained commitment to research leads to discoveries and innovations that enrich all aspects of our lives. In recent weeks, we have been witnessing that the administration dismantled the scientific company. These actions are weakening the economy, undermining national security and endangering the health and well…
A great Australian study has found that patients prescribed medical cannabis experienced lasting improvements in the quality of life, which include a better dream, a reduction in fatigue and relief of pain, anxiety and depression, sustained during a whole year. This is based on previous short -term data and supports the growing interest in cannabis…
Calcium tartrato crystals can coexist with polyester microdroplets containing tartrato, which suggests the potential for dynamic phase transitions of tartrams or molecules that contain tartratrate in the early earth. Credit: Chen Chen A new study led by researchers at the Institute of Life Sciences of the Earth (ELSI) at the Institute of Sciences, Tokyo, has…
The cockroach fish that migrate between different lakes and water courses have larger pupils and a better view than the cockroach that remain in one place. The adaptation makes it easier for freight red -eyed migrants to find food in murky waters. This is shown in a great study of the University of Lund in…
Around 230 million years ago, at least 19 amphibians the size of a crocodile expired together in an old flood plain in what is now Wyoming. The fossilized remains of the animals, discovered in four excavations between 2014 and 2019, have been relatively not disturbed since then and have delicate small bones and parts of…
Photo: Guando Andelei As Earth continues to warm, more and more of the planet is becoming dry. A 2024 UN report found that in the last three decades, over three-fourths of all the world’s land became drier than it had been in the previous 30 years. Drylands now comprise 40.6% of all global land (excluding…
This image shows the dusty Galaxy NGC 4526, the galaxy that was host of a brilliant supernova in 1994. It has a central dust disc in the middle of the galaxy, and the fact that it seems dusty on the one hand more than the other allows us to learn which edge is closer to…
New spider records (Arachnida: Araneae) of Western Balkans Abstract In this study, we present new faunal data on spiders (Arachnida: Araneae) of Western Balkans. Our findings include the first records of six genres and 23 species for Kosovo: Micaria (2 species), Nomisia (2 species), Allagellena (1 species), Alopecosa (1 species), Ball (1 species), Cheiracanthium (1…
Thanks to modern technology (and based on the remains of Calavera), we can now reconstruct a probable approximation of the faces of our ancient Neanderthal ancestors. When we look at those faces, we see beings that seem to us in many ways, but with more robust characteristics, larger and medium noses projected forward, especially compared…
A rotating and rotating plasma streamer that escapes to the sun after a coronal mass expulsion (CME) has been captured in video by the solar orbiter of the European Space Agency, and could provide vital clues on how the magnetic energy that the solar wind and giant eruptions in the sun drive. The helical streamer…
