Due to the explosive growth of artificial intelligence, it is estimated that data centers will consume up to 12 percent of total U.S. electricity by 2028, according to the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Improving data center energy efficiency is one way...
A sungazing spacecraft captured spectacular views of Comet C/2025 R3 (PanSTARRS) as its ion tail appeared to "switch on" and swing away from the sun during a close approach to Earth on April 26. Comet C/2025 R3 was discovered in September 2025 and quickly stirred up...
The Artemis 2 heat shield looks like a sunken treasure from the Titanic in an underwater shot following splashdown. The mission's Orion capsule splashed down off the coast of San Diego on April 10, safely returning its astronaut crew home. Now, we can see the...
When Tom Kerss, chief aurora chaser for the Norwegian coastal voyage operator Hurtigruten, was looking back through footage from his latest season of northern lights voyages, he stumbled upon something truly remarkable. "I've been chasing the Northern Lights for more...
The ongoing military conflict regarding Iran and the Strait of Hormuz may well mirror a future situation off-Earth — the use of cislunar space, the region between the moon and our planet. Think blockades, seizing of ships, impacts on the global economy, repercussions...
NASA chief Jared Isaacman wants to restore Pluto to its former glory. In 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) stripped Pluto of its planethood, reclassifying the icy world as a "dwarf planet." The decision was controversial, and not just because it forced...
A rock discovered by NASA's Curiosity Mars rover contains "the most diverse collection" of the building blocks of life ever seen on the Red Planet, including seven never found there before, new research confirms. In 2020, Curiosity discovered and drilled into the...
Scientists have long assumed our universe would continue on for trillions of years, but a new study presents a much shorter life span for the cosmos: Our universe might last only another 33 billion years. That's just a cosmic blink before everything collapses in on...
A newly developed technique could teach AI algorithms to see the universe with unprecedented clarity — potentially exposing the cracks in our understanding of the cosmos. Our cosmic rulebook, known as the standard cosmological model, has done an unparalleled job of...
Patterns of molecular activity in the blood may hold clues not only to how fit someone is, but also to the biological processes that support physical performance. Researchers at MIT, GE HealthCare, and the U.S. Military Academy at West Point have developed a...
While many electric toothbrushes present a similar facade, their true distinctions lie in their underlying specifications, making a close examination of features crucial for consumers. Historically, advanced functionalities like multiple accessories, integrated...
Here are a few options, maintaining a clear, journalistic tone: **Option 1 (Concise):** "A blood purification technique is showing significant promise as a potential treatment for preeclampsia, a severe and often life-threatening pregnancy disorder characterized by...
