New Study Reveals Recent Ice Gains in Antarctica, But Long-Term Melting Continues
A study led by researchers at Tongji University using NASA's GRACE satellites has observed recent ice gains in Antarctica from 2021 to 2023, mainly due to unusual precipitation. However, the long-term satellite data from 2002 to 2020 shows a significant and accelerating trend of ice loss. However, experts emphasize this short-term gain does not rev...

Study Finds Grey Seals Can Track Blood Oxygen to Prevent Drowning
A study has revealed that grey seals can monitor their blood oxygen levels to determine when they need to surface for air. Researchers tested seals in controlled environments, exposing them to different oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. The findings confirmed that higher oxygen led to longer dives, while reduced oxygen shortened them. Surprisingly,...

May 2024 Solar Storm Triggers Unusual Radiation Belts, Raising Space Safety Concerns
A significant solar storm in May 2024 led to the creation of two temporary radiation belts, detected by the CIRBE satellite in June. One belt contained high-energy electrons, while the other was rich in protons, a rare occurrence. While the electron belt dissipated in three months, the proton-dominated belt remains, potentially affecting space miss...

PFAS Chemicals Harm Freshwater Turtles in Australia, New Research Finds
Recent studies have highlighted the alarming effects of PFAS (forever chemicals) on freshwater turtles in Australia. The research, led by environmental biochemist David Beale and his team, discovered that PFAS exposure is causing serious health issues in both adult turtles and their hatchlings. The chemicals accumulate in key organs like the liver,...

Scientists Investigate Hypernuclei To Understand Subatomic Forces and Neutron Stars
A groundbreaking study on hypernuclei, led by Ulf-G. Meißner from the Institute for Advanced Simulation, uses nuclear lattice effective field theory to explore the interactions of Λ-hyperons within atomic nuclei. The research, published in The European Physical Journal A, provides key insights into the forces that shape hypernuclei and their pote...

Hubble Telescope Reveals Milky Way Blowing Gas off LMC Galaxy in Close Encounter
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured an extraordinary phenomenon as the Milky Way galaxy exerts ram pressure on the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), stripping away most of its gas halo. The interaction, which occurs as LMC passes near the Milky Way, has led to the loss of significant mass from the dwarf galaxy. Despite this, LMC retains enough...

Apophis Asteroid Flyby in 2029: Earth's Gravitational May Impact Asteroid's Surface
Asteroid 99942 Apophis, named after the ancient Egyptian god of darkness, is set to pass incredibly close to Earth in 2029, at just 32,000 km. While there is no risk of a collision, scientists are keen to study the asteroid’s interaction with Earth's gravity. Research led by planetary scientist Ronald Ballouz suggests that this flyby may cause si...
