Scientists Transform Lead into Gold, But Only for a Fleeting Moment
In a landmark experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider, scientists briefly turned lead into gold by removing three protons through near-miss atomic collisions. The ALICE collaboration generated 89,000 gold atoms per second, though each existed only fleetingly. While economically insignificant, the breakthrough showcases the precision of particle ...

Scientists Discover Three-Eyed Sea Moth From Half a Billion Years Ago
Paleontologists have discovered Mosura fentoni, a three-eyed, finger-sized marine predator from half a billion years ago, in museum fossil collections in Canada. Named after the Japanese monster Mothra, this ancient radiodont had a highly segmented body and unusually long gills on its rear, possibly adapted for breathing in low-oxygen environments....

Astronomers Discover Teleios, A Supernova Remnant with Perfect Symmetry
A newly discovered supernova remnant named “Teleios,” meaning “perfect” in Greek, is astonishing scientists with its rare circular symmetry. Detected using data from ASKAP’s Evolutionary Map of the Universe, Teleios (G305.4–2.2) could be located 7,170 or 25,100 light years away. With a steep spectral index and low surface brightness, it...

NASA’s SWOT Satellite Reveals Big Impact of Small Ocean Currents and Waves in n Marine Ecosystems
NASA’s SWOT satellite, in collaboration with CNES, reveals how submesoscale ocean features just a mile wide drive vital vertical circulation. These small currents transport heat, carbon, and nutrients, profoundly influencing marine ecosystems and climate systems. The mission’s high-resolution data is reshaping how scientists model ocean-atmosph...

NASA Satellite Detects Tree Leaf Changes as Early Volcano Eruption Warning Signal
NASA and Smithsonian scientists find that greener trees seen in satellite images may warn of upcoming volcanic eruptions. The change is linked to rising carbon dioxide emissions from magma, which trees absorb and display through greener leaves. This method could enhance early warning systems and improve public safety near active volcanoes.
