UPSC Opens Applications For Combined Geo-Scientist And Geologist Exam 2025
Candidates for Examiner posts must hold a law degree or relevant qualification. Age limit is 21 to 35 years with relaxations for reserved categories as per government rules.

Discovery Of Giant Structure Deep Beneath Bermuda Triangle Baffles Scientists
The researchers plan to investigate similar structures beneath other islands, potentially rewriting Earth's geological history.

Rare Cube-Shaped Skull Found In Mexico Sheds Light On Ancient Civilisation
Scientists examined the skull's bones and teeth and found that the individual likely lived in Tamaulipas his entire life.

Clocks on Mars Run Faster Than on Earth, New Study Finds
New research shows time on Mars runs faster than on Earth by 477 microseconds per day. The variation poses challenges for astronauts, navigation, and creating interplanetary communication networks. Scientists say understanding Martian time differences is key for future missions and testing Einstein’s relativity.

NASA Finds Thick Atmosphere On Rare Rocky Exoplanet
Scientists are now analysing the entire data in depth to create a complete map of the temperature around the planet and better understand the composition of its atmosphere.

3I/ATLAS Still Shows Anti-Tail Ahead Of Closest Approach To Earth, Says Harvard Scientist
The scientist said that the rotational-gradient brightness map shows a prominent anti-tail pointing in the direction of the Sun.

New Catfish Species Discovered In Southwest China's Mountainous Region
This is the third recognised species of the genus Glaridoglanis.

Scientists Discover New Species Of Tiny Pumpkin Toadlet In Brazil's Cloud Forests
This species is deaf to its own advertising calls, relying on visual cues like vocal sac inflation, mouth gaping, and arm waving for communication.

Study Reveals Ancient 26-Foot Shark Lived 115 Million Years Ago, Before Megalodon
This discovery highlights the enormous size and predatory dominance of ancient sharks and provides scientists with a new perspective on the early evolution of the ancestors of today's great white sharks.

Researchers Found Mysterious Objects That Could Be "Dark Stars"
In smaller dark stars, when their dark matter runs out, normal nuclear fusion can begin, and they gradually become normal stars.

Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS Turns Green Ahead Of Closest Approach To Earth
3I/ATLAS has offered scientists a unique opportunity to study material formed around another star.

Secret Rain Pattern May Have Driven Long Spells of Dry and Wetter Periods Across Horn of Africa: Study
Scientists have identified a hidden rainfall pattern that could reshape global farming. Research shows crops suffer greater drought stress when rain comes mainly from land rather than oceans. The findings highlight rising risks in the U.S. Midwest and East Africa and suggest that forest conservation and better land management could help protect rai...

Early Earth’s Deep Mantle May Have Held More Water Than Previously Believed, Study Finds
Scientists have discovered that Earth’s deep mantle may have stored an ocean’s worth of water during the planet’s earliest years. New experiments show that bridgmanite, a dominant mantle mineral, can hold much more water under extreme heat, offering fresh insight into how Earth retained water and became habitable.

Scientists Study Ancient Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS, Seeking Clues to Early Star System Formation
Comet 3I/ATLAS, a rare interstellar visitor from beyond the solar system, is putting on a striking celestial show as it nears Earth. After passing perihelion in October, the comet brightened nearly tenfold and shifted from red to green due to glowing carbon molecules. Tracked closely by astronomers worldwide, this ancient object offers a unique opp...

Scientists Observe Solar Neutrinos Altering Matter for the First Time
Scientists have directly observed solar neutrinos altering matter for the first time, confirming a decades-old prediction in particle physics. This landmark result provides the lowest-energy measurement of a neutrino–nucleus interaction ever recorded and opens a powerful new way to study elusive neutrinos, nuclear reactions, and the inner working...
