Weak Internal Body Clock Linked To Higher Dementia Risk, Says New Study
"Disruptions in circadian rhythms may alter body processes like inflammation, and may interfere with sleep, possibly increasing amyloid plaques linked to dementia, or reducing amyloid clearance from the brain," says new study.

Compulsive Behaviours Could Be Inflammation, Not 'Habit Loop', Says New Study In Rats
The study, published in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology, looked at rats and tested whether inducing inflammation in the striatum brain region responsible for motor control, habit forming and motivation would increase habitual behaviour.

Swearing May Boost Confidence, Reduce Inhibitions: New Study
A new study finds that swearing could help promotes psychological states conducive to maximizing effort and overcoming internal constraints. These effects have potential implications for athletic performance and rehabilitation.

NASA’s Perseverance Rover Poised for Years of Exploration Across Jezero Crater
NASA’s Perseverance rover, in excellent condition, is ready for long-term Mars exploration. Using autonomous driving, it has travelled nearly 25 miles, studied olivine-rich rocks, and collected samples revealing potential signs of past microbial life. The rover now heads to Lac de Charmes for further scientific investigation, promising years of d...

Russian Cosmonauts Complete Second Spacewalk to Install New Experiments on ISS Exterior
Two Russian cosmonauts completed a six-hour spacewalk outside the International Space Station, installing plasma and semiconductor experiments, servicing hardware, and preparing for future missions. The EVA, lasting nearly seven hours, marked the 277th in ISS history and advanced ongoing scientific research aboard the orbital outpost.

Scientists Caution That Artificial Cooling of Earth May Disrupt Monsoons and Weather Systems
A new Scientific Reports study warns that dimming the Sun with sulfur aerosols could cause severe side effects, including disrupted monsoons, ozone loss, and acid rain. Researchers stress that despite its cooling potential, such geoengineering carries unpredictable global risks that outweigh short-term benefits.

Scientists Construct 5-Micron Engine Generating Effective Heat of 13 Million Degrees Celsius Without Burning
A team of scientists has created a microscopic engine made from a 5-micrometre glass bead suspended in an electric field. By applying oscillating voltages, the bead moves as if it’s in an environment of 13 million°C, even though it remains cool. The study reveals bizarre thermodynamic effects at tiny scales, offering clues to how natural molecul...
