Scientists Make Groundbreaking Discovery Of ‘Dark Oxygen’
Scientists published a study on Monday in which they claim to have found groundbreaking evidence of the creation of “dark oxygen.” Professor Andrew Sweetman leads the Seafloor Ecology and Biogeochemistry Research Group at the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS). studyThe researchers discovered deep-sea oxygen production (or “dark oxygen”) from metal nodules in the Pacific […]
Scientists Make Unprecedented Discovery On Mars By Accident
NASA scientists expressed that they were “stunned” after their Mars Curiosity rover cracked open a rock that was found to contain pure sulfur crystals, a NASA press release read Thursday. The Curiosity rover’s social media account tweeted that the “pure sulfur … doesn’t smell” and the discovery of elemental sulfur “is something we’ve never seen […]
Scientists Gather To Debate Renaming Plant Names Riddled With Racial Slurs
Botanists are set to vote at Madrid’s International Botanical Congress on renaming plant species that contain racial slurs and other such offensive names, Nature reported Tuesday. The International Botanical Congress, which meets every six to seven years to weigh on rules for naming plants, fungi and algae, will vote on two proposals revolving around culturally […]
Scientists confirm cave on the moon — which could be used as future housing
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Scientists have identified a cave on the moon not far from where Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed 55 years ago, and they speculate there could be hundreds more that could be habitable for future astronauts. An Italian-led team of researchers reported Monday that they have evidence of a sizable cavern […]
Scientists discover massive cave on moon that could be used to shelter astronauts
An Italian-led team of scientists says they have found evidence of a sizable cavern not far from where Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the moon 55 years ago. The cave is located in the Sea of Tranquility, just 250 miles from the landing site of Apollo 11. Researchers believe there are hundreds more […]
Reviving The Woolly Mammoth? Scientists Just Got A Huge Step Closer
Chromosomes found in a 52,000-year-old freeze-dried woolly mammoth may help scientists determine its genetic code, a June study revealed. The first-of-its-kind research published in the journal Cell is an enormous step forward in sequencing a complete woolly mammoth genome, bringing the long-extinct beast closer to revival. “Until now, we could only read small fragments of […]

Researchers at the University of Tokyo have developed a groundbreaking way to cover the surface of robots with real, living skin tissue. The idea of a […]
Scientists make DNA discovery that could help find pancreatic cancer cure | Pancreas cancer
Scientists have made an important DNA discovery that could help treat one of the deadliest forms of cancer. A team of British and US researchers have found that pancreatic cancer shuts down a molecule in one of the body’s most important genes, helping the disease grow and spread rapidly. Pancreatic cancer is the 12th most […]
How Australian scientists brought Norfolk Island’s thumbnail-sized snails back from the brink of extinction | Australia news
First, there is a bulge on the right side of the snail’s neck, and then slowly (because everything in the snail world happens slowly) a fully formed baby snail appears, shell and all. An adult Campbell’s glass snail gave birth to more than 20 babies last week in a quarantine facility at Sydney’s Taronga Zoo. […]
