Covid-19 Likely Originated From Wildlife Trade, Not Lab Leak, Researchers Claim
A new genetic study suggests Covid-19 likely originated from the wildlife trade, specifically in Wuhan's markets, rather than a lab leak.

NASA Study Finds Solar Wind Could Be Key to Water Formation on the Moon
A recent study indicates that water on the lunar surface may come from the solar wind. The results suggest that other airless bodies in the solar system may also have water on their surfaces, therefore highlighting the possibility of finding such water on the surface of other such objects.

Say Goodbye To Implants And Fillings? Scientists Grow Human Teeth In Lab For First Time
Current teeth replacement solutions are invasive and often fail to fully restore natural tooth form and function.

Laboratory Test Shows Ion-Molecule Collision Theory Fails to Produce Benzene in Space Conditions
A recent laboratory experiment conducted by researchers at JILA and NIST has disproved a long-held theory about how benzene forms in interstellar space. The study tested ion-molecule collisions at near-zero temperatures and extremely low pressure but failed to produce benzene. This challenges earlier theories linking benzene to the formation of car...

New Research Reveals Mars’ Red Colour Linked to Ancient Water Presence
A recent study suggests that Mars’ red hue originates from ferrihydrite, an iron oxide that forms in water-rich environments. Scientists recreated Martian dust in labs and found that the mineral remained stable despite the planet’s dry conditions. Data from orbiting spacecraft and rovers confirm this discovery, reshaping theories about Mars’ ...

SpaceX and Vast Seek Research Ideas for Dragon and Haven-1 Space Station
SpaceX and Vast have called for research proposals for experiments aboard the upcoming Haven-1 space station and SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft. The station is set to launch in August 2024, followed by a Crew Dragon mission carrying astronauts. Research will focus on human physiology in microgravity and autonomous experiments for low-Earth orbit. Sel...

Scientists Demonstrate Negative Time in Quantum Experiments at Toronto Lab
University of Toronto researchers observed “negative time” in photons through quantum experiments. Led by physicist Daniela Angulo, the study measured interactions between light and matter, revealing energy state changes in less than zero duration. While it challenges traditional time concepts, the findings remain consistent with Einstein's rel...

AI Is Helping Us Read Minds, but Should We?
The AI is now being said to be trained in scanning brain data to decipher stories that a person has read, heard, or even just imagined. This isn’t a rogue lab doing mad science but part of a long-term effort that’s been pursued by scientists around the world. However, scientific reviews have shown that the polygraph does not work as people thin...

Combination Of These Three Metals Is The Toughest Known Material On Earth
The study was published by a team of scientists from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, who described the findings as "record-breaking".

Next Covid Strain Could Be Worse, Says A Lab Report
A South African laboratory study using Covid-19 samples from an immunosupressed individual over six months showed that the virus evolved to become more pathogenic, indicating that a new variant could cause more illness.
