A large asteroid will pass close to Earth in July 2025. NASA and ISRO are closely monitoring its trajectory. The asteroid, named 2005 VO5, poses no immediate threat. However, its size and proximity warrant careful observation. ISRO is collaborating with global agencies to enhance planetary defence. These efforts aim to detect and potentially deflect dangerous asteroids.
For many migraine sufferers, weather changes are a significant trigger, with shifts in barometric pressure, temperature, and humidity playing a role. These environmental factors can activate pain pathways in the brain, leading to debili ...more
Recent low sea-ice summers present a scientific challenge; the system is currently changing faster than the scientific community can study it
Nasa's Parker Solar Probe has captured unprecedented close-range footage of a powerful coronal mass ejection (CME), revealing turbulent flows and Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities near the Sun. Flying just 3.8 million miles from the solar ...more

Results from an experiment that ran from 2015 to 2018 have inspired other clinicians whose patients suffer from ischaemia-reperfusion injuries
The mission, launched on June 25, involved over 60 scientific experiments
The Axiom Mission 4 crew was to spend up to 14 days at the ISS, however they will be extending their stay at the ISS
After decades working as a fisherman on a high-altitude Mexican lake, Froylan Correa is now helping to save an endangered amphibian with gills resembling a lion's mane and a remarkable regenerative ability. After the hatchlings have gro ...more
NASA's DART mission successfully altered Dimorphos' orbit, but the impact unleashed over 100 boulders, significantly boosting momentum transfer. These ejected rocks, captured by LICIACube, carried nearly as much momentum as DART itself, ...more
Under the Trump administration's cost-cutting initiative, NASA faces significant staff reductions, with over 2,000 senior employees departing through early retirement and buyouts. These cuts, impacting critical science, engineering, and ...more
Because they can enumerate one second up to around 18 decimal places, scientists expect optical clocks will become the world’s new time standard around 2030
From ancient moons to melting glaciers, a strange cosmic ballet is quietly trimming our time.

One study is of enamel proteins from extinct mammal fossils from the Turkana Basin in Kenya, and the other study is of enamel proteins from extinct mammals in the Haughton impact crater site located on Devon Island, Nunavut in far Northern Canada.
Earth is set to experience unusually short days in July and August 2025. The Moon's orbital position is subtly accelerating Earth's rotation. These days will be milliseconds shorter, impacting precision systems. Global timekeepers are c ...more
In the early days of space exploration, scientists sent animals like fruit flies, monkeys, dogs, tortoises and worms into space to study the effects of weightlessness on living beings. Laika, a Soviet dog, was the first animal to orbit ...more
