For thousands of years, something has been coming down from the sky. Sometimes it has wings. Sometimes it glows. Sometimes it looks almost human. Sometimes it is beautiful. Sometimes terrifying. And sometimes it has a huge bald head, gray skin, tiny nostrils, and enormous black eyes. Today, most of us know that last creature immediately. […]

For centuries, people have imagined another world beneath our feet. The strange part is that Hollow Earth didn’t begin entirely as pseudoscience. It began with a genuine scientific mystery. Imagine yourself at the North Pole. Instead of endless ice ahead, the ground slopes down to a colossal opening spanning thousands of miles. Step through, and […]

What happens to the teenage brain when kids walk more? Could a common antidepressant affect survival during cancer treatment? Why would scientists deliberately lose photons in a quantum experiment? Those questions all surfaced in recent research. This week’s science stretches from hospital delivery rooms to the developing brain, from individual cells to quantum light. Some […]

Ever wondered how butterflies, with their delicate wings and graceful flight, evade predatory attacks so successfully? The secret might lie in an unexpected place: visual illusions created by their wing patterns in motion. This discovery adds another layer to our understanding of how nature employs ingenious strategies for survival. A Nature-Inspired Puzzle Picture a butterfly […]

Some insects, like desert ants, stop and turn to look around when they are unsure of where to go, which helps them learn about their surroundings. Researchers showed that this looking-around behavior comes naturally from the ants' brain circuits used for navigating, without needing anything extra. Their model predicted different ways the ants look around, like quick turns and pauses, and it matched real-life videos of ants.

Scientists studied how DNA in a cell changes its shape during different parts of the cell's life. They found that DNA structures get stronger when the cell starts copying its DNA and then change back later. These changes help us understand how DNA is organized throughout the cell’s life.

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.
