In 1977, a radio telescope detected a mysterious signal from deep space. Nearly 50 years later, scientists still don’t know exactly what caused it. That signal’s story reveals how humanity’s search for extraterrestrial intelligence has evolved—and why we’re still listening. The 72 Seconds That Changed the Search for Aliens On August 15, 1977, a radio […]

Scientists are always finding new ways to understand how our bodies work. This week, researchers explored how to detect cancer earlier, what affects cancer risk, how malaria damages the brain, how the heart develops, and how animals digest food. These studies used tools like advanced scans, genetic testing, and new ways to track food through […]

Imagine a gigantic galactic gardening project, where one galaxy enriches another with metal-laden gusts. This might sound like science fiction, but recent observations have revealed a surprising cosmic process in which galaxies distribute metals to their neighbors through directional outflows. The Strange Effect of Cosmic Winds For a long time, astronomers believed galactic winds, which […]

A huge patch of unusually warm water in the tropical Pacific is helping rewrite weather patterns across the planet. That pattern is called El Niño, and it is not just a local ocean event. It is part of a powerful climate rhythm known as the El Niño–Southern Oscillation, or ENSO. When El Niño takes hold, […]

Scientists found that many brain cells in the visual cortex respond to two different picture features, not just one. One feature makes them more active, and the other makes them less active, and this pattern helps the brain understand images in a simple, shared way. This same way of coding vision was found in both monkeys and mice.

Some bee viruses change how well honey bees can fly by affecting a body system that helps bees respond to stress. One virus made flight better, while another made it worse, and a chemical that acts on this system could change those effects.

Our AI footprint is intentionally small. Based on published estimates of LLM inference energy, this represents roughly 50-200 kWh of electricity annually, about the electricity used by a household refrigerator over two to eight months, or roughly one week of electricity for an average U.S. home. We minimize our footprint by using efficient retrieval-augmented workflows, limiting unnecessary model calls, and keeping responses concise. We also support habitat restoration to offset the remaining emissions. Read more about this effort here.
