Apple Researchers Create an AI Model That Uses Behavioural Data from Wearables to Predict Health Signals
Apple researchers, in collaboration with the University of Southern California, have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that tracks behavioural data over sensor signals. The new research builds on prior work by the Apple Heart and Movement Study (AHMS) and was aimed at understanding whether behavioural data can be a better determina...

Is Earth In A Giant Cosmic Void? Why New Research Could Change Everything
New research suggests Earth may lie inside a massive, billion-light-year-wide cosmic void, offering a possible solution to the Hubble Tension and changing our understanding of the universes expansion.

Meteorite From Outer Solar System Challenges Planet Formation Timeline in Early Solar System
A meteorite from the outer solar system may upend long-held beliefs about planetary formation. New research shows rocky planets like Earth may have formed at the same time as those beyond Jupiter. The findings challenge previous models and suggest a more synchronised origin for rocky worlds across the solar system, with major implications for plane...

NASA’s Hubble and Webb Discover Bursting Star Formation in Small Magellanic Cloud
NASA’s Hubble and Webb telescopes have captured spectacular images of NGC 460 and NGC 456, two star clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud. These young, open clusters are filled with massive, hot stars that trigger new star formation by carving nebulae. The findings provide insights into early universe conditions and interstellar medium behaviour...

Dark Dwarfs: New Star-Like Objects May Reveal Nature of Dark Matter
Scientists have proposed a new class of stellar objects called “dark dwarfs,” sub-stellar bodies that may glow faintly from the energy released by annihilating dark matter particles. Found near the galaxy’s core, these objects could hold crucial clues about the elusive nature of dark matter. Powered not by fusion but by WIMP-like particles, d...

AI Designs Ocean Gliders Inspired by Sea Creatures to Boost Underwater Research Efficiency
Researchers at MIT and the University of Wisconsin have developed AI-designed underwater gliders inspired by marine animals. The new shapes, generated using machine learning, move more efficiently underwater than traditional torpedo designs. This innovation could greatly improve climate and ocean monitoring by enabling better performance, energy sa...

Very Massive Stars Blow Away Outer Layers in Powerful Winds Before Black Hole Collapse
Massive stars may lose much more mass than expected before collapsing into black holes. A new study reveals that their powerful stellar winds strip outer layers early, reshaping theories of star evolution, black hole formation, and gravitational wave events. This research challenges previous models and helps explain observed features of stars like ...

CSIRO Uses Quantum AI to Revolutionize Semiconductor Design
In a global first, researchers at Australia’s CSIRO used quantum machine learning to enhance semiconductor design, outperforming classical AI models. By modeling Ohmic resistance in GaN transistors, the team built a hybrid quantum–classical model using just 5 qubits. This Quantum Kernel-Aligned Regressor revealed subtle fabrication patterns tha...

Mars Dust Devils May Spark Lightning, Might Pose Risks to Rovers: Study
A new computer-modeling study reveals that dust devils on Mars—swirling columns of dust and air—may become electrically charged enough to spark lightning-like discharges. Led by researcher Varun Sheel, the study simulates how dry Martian conditions and frictional collisions between dust grains can generate strong electric fields inside these vo...

Microsoft’s AI System Claimed to Diagnose Patients More Accurately Than Doctors
Microsoft researchers unveiled a new artificial intelligence (AI) system on Monday that can diagnose patients more accurately than human doctors. Dubbed the Microsoft AI Diagnostic Orchestrator (MAI-DxO), it is a system that includes multiple AI models and a framework that allows it to go through patient symptoms and their history to suggest releva...
