Physicists believe a mirror universe might exist where time moves backward, possibly happening before the Big Bang. This idea comes from CPT symmetry, which suggests the universe stays balanced if charge, direction, and time are flipped. To keep this balance, some scientists think our universe has an opposite version, where time flows in reverse. In...

Cancer rates are climbing, and young women are at the center of a troubling trend. Recent studies show they face an 82% higher cancer risk than men in the same age group. This sharp rise raises urgent questions about the causes and what can be done to stop it. Experts point to a mix of...

NASA has captured a stunning view of the birth of a star, revealing details never seen before. This breakthrough offers a rare glimpse into how stars form, shedding light on the forces shaping galaxies. Using the advanced infrared James Webb Space Telescope, the instrument has pierced through cosmic dust to capture this pivotal moment in...

Some foods can be as dangerous as they are delicious. From toxic plants to venomous seafood, a single bite can cause paralysis—or worse. In South America, Cassava is a staple for millions and provides essential carbohydrates for many in tropical regions. However, its roots and leaves contain cyanogenic glycosides, which release cyanide when broken down,...

Scientists have long believed that Newton’s laws govern all motion, from falling apples to speeding rockets. However, a recent study challenges this idea at the microscopic level. Researchers have discovered that human sperm swim through thick fluids in a way that appears to defy Newton’s Third Law of Motion. Instead of experiencing the expected resistance,...

​Imagine every step you take generating electricity—that’s the magic behind Pavegen’s innovative floor tiles. These tiles harness kinetic energy from footsteps, converting it into usable power. Each footstep produces a small but measurable amount of energy, enough to power LED lights or sensors. In bustling areas like train stations or shopping malls, where thousands tread...

Celebrities are embracing full-body MRI scans as a way to catch health problems early. High-profile figures like Kim Kardashian have promoted these scans, fueling public interest. Unlike traditional checkups, full-body MRIs offer a detailed look inside the body without invasive procedures. For celebrities, who often have demanding schedules, this one-and-done approach to screening feels efficient....

Imagine spending most of your life feeling constantly exhausted, only to be misdiagnosed or dismissed by multiple doctors. For Katrina Burchell, this was her reality. She began experiencing fatigue at 19, but despite numerous visits to her GP, she never received clear answers. Over time, her symptoms worsened, leading her to fear she might have...

Australia is on a collision course with Asia, moving north at an unusually fast pace. Scientists predict that in millions of years, the two continents will merge, triggering massive geological and environmental changes. This shift isn’t just theoretical—it’s already affecting GPS accuracy, increasing seismic activity, and altering ecosystems. As tectonic forces push Australia forward, the...

The iron structures scattered across the Australian desert have long puzzled scientists and Indigenous communities alike. These formations, shaped by ancient geological and climatic forces, provide a window into the region’s prehistoric past. While scientists have uncovered key details about their origins, Indigenous groups have preserved stories that link these structures to cultural traditions. Understanding...

What does it take to live past 100? Few people can answer this question better than Emma Morano, who lived to be 117 and became the last known person born in the 1800s. Her remarkable longevity was shaped by a mix of genetics, dietary habits, lifestyle choices, and personal philosophy. While researchers continue to study...

Scientists have discovered a weak spot in Earth’s magnetic field that is expanding over the South Atlantic. This region, known as the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), allows more solar radiation to reach satellites and the planet’s surface. Researchers are studying how this change affects navigation, communications, and power systems. The anomaly may also reveal shifts...
