Tech Xplore / Russian satellites linked to mysterious GPS disruptions across several countries
Since 2019, GPS signals across Europe, Greenland and Canada have experienced a huge spike in sudden, widespread signal blackouts. These have resulted in disruptions and degraded performance in navigation systems that airplanes ...
Phys.org / First leather bag made from T-Rex cells fails to sell at Paris auction
A leather bag made from Tyrannosaurus rex cells failed to sell Thursday, the Paris auction house Drouot said, commenting that bids were well below expectations.
Medical Xpress / CRISPR enzyme precisely detects and shreds DNA in cancer mutations once considered 'undruggable'
In 2020, Jennifer Doudna won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for her work on the CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology that allows scientists to precisely modify DNA by cutting it at specific locations. Six years later, a new ...
Phys.org / Massive Kamchatka earthquake has extended rupture that overlaps 1952 event, researchers find
Researchers combining two methods to reconstruct the rupture evolution of the July 2025 magnitude 8.8 Kamchatka earthquake found the rupture from the megathrust event extended about 500 kilometers (311 miles) from its epicenter.
Tech Xplore / This specially-designed jacket pulls drinking water from thin air
Engineers at The University of Texas at Austin have developed a jacket that harvests drinking water directly from the air. The technology could benefit anyone who spends a lot of time in areas without easy access to drinking ...
Phys.org / Silent prions reveal new cross-species chronic wasting disease risk in lab tests
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is generally associated with animals. But a new study by researchers from the University of Calgary and international collaborators explored the potential for CWD to spread from deer, elk and ...
Phys.org / Why cells started sticking together could help explain how animals first evolved
A recent study by Ruibao Li and Jennah Dharamshi published in Nature may help us understand the beginnings of animal evolution billions of years ago. These findings are the result of a collaboration among researchers at Indiana ...
Tech Xplore / New water-based material could store solar energy, power reactions in darkness, then recharge
Northwestern University scientists have developed a new liquid material that charges like a battery, transforms like a living organism and then resets itself in open air. Traditionally, harvesting energy, storing it and using ...
Phys.org / Physicists introduce phase contrast to electron microscopy, delivering sharper images of our body's tiniest proteins
Nearly 100 years ago, a seemingly simple discovery revolutionized the microscope. The introduction of phase contrast, which garnered a Nobel Prize in 1953, brought into clear view structures inside cells that had previously ...
Medical Xpress / Sleepy mice forget who they have met, but an asthma drug brings it all back
Anyone who has had a bad night knows that they can feel "foggy" the next day. This fogginess may extend to our memory: remembering where we went, who we met or what happened during the encounter. Neuroscientist Robbert Havekes ...
Phys.org / Organic molecule with ultranarrow emission spectrum could lead to better LEDs
Over the past several decades, light sources have gradually transitioned to light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, and inorganic LEDs are now used across a wide range of applications. In parallel, organic LEDs, or OLEDs, have become ...
Medical Xpress / Researchers identify brain 'entrapment' patterns associated with depression
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have identified distinctive patterns in how the brain transitions between activity states in people with depression, providing new insight into why depressive symptoms ...
