Phys.org / NASA lays out moon base plans with landers, buggies and drones at the top of the list
NASA is already ordering landers, rovers and drones for a sprawling moon base, less than two months after the Artemis II's record-breaking lunar flyaround.
Medical Xpress / The Enhanced Games set out to 'transform sport' but the results looked surprisingly ordinary
The Enhanced Games promised a revolution. Athletes on supervised drug regimens, unshackled from the anti-doping rules of the Olympics, were going to show us what the human body was truly capable of. The event was transhumanism ...
Phys.org / Impact of regional airline exits on travelers measured
When regional airlines leave a market, travelers are likely to see fewer flights and higher fares. The harder question is how much service disappears, how quickly prices rise and whether other airlines step in to fill the ...
Phys.org / Months trapped together in Antarctic isolation reveal a risk few long missions can afford to ignore
How can people continue to function as a team when they live together in isolation for months on end? A new study led by the University of Zurich shows that loneliness isn't the only challenge posed by extreme environments. ...
Medical Xpress / A new AI model enables more efficient analysis of colorectal cancer samples
Researchers at the Faculty of Information Technology at the University of Jyväskylä have used artificial intelligence to speed up the analysis of colorectal cancer samples and predict the functioning of the cells' DNA repair ...
Phys.org / Gentoo penguins cope with climate change heat waves by breeding earlier
Over the past few decades, heat waves have become more common in several parts of the world as our planet warms. That's a huge problem for many animals, as it can lead to habitat loss and push their bodies to lethal thresholds. ...
Phys.org / Heat waves: Older people less likely to follow safety advice
Extreme heat is now considered the deadliest weather and climate-related hazard in Europe, causing more deaths than floods or storms.
Medical Xpress / How high-intensity interval training alters inflammatory responses
New research published in ImmunoHorizons shows that running a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) workout triggers a more inflammatory immune response than cycling HIIT. These findings could help everyday athletes make ...
Medical Xpress / International study highlights impact of restrained sitting on movement behaviors in young children
Researchers at LSU's Pennington Biomedical Research Center, in collaboration with investigators from 32 countries participating in the SUNRISE International Study, have published new findings examining how restrained sitting ...
Phys.org / Researchers link specific microbiomes to archaeological bone degradation
Well-preserved archaeological bone samples have different microbial communities than heavily degraded bone samples, providing a new understanding of how microbes contribute to bone degradation, according to a study published ...
Phys.org / The human gaze speaks to children, who remain insensitive to the gaze of humanoid robots
Very young children (even as young as 3 years old) can read intention and preferences in the eyes of a person, but they do not recognize this type of nonverbal communication in the gaze of a humanoid robot.
Medical Xpress / Novel blood test detects rejection after lung transplant
A simple blood test could one day replace invasive biopsies for detecting acute cellular rejection (ACR) after lung transplantation, an American Journal of Transplantation study finds.
