New Study Uses AI to Reveal Dry Origins of Mars’ Mysterious Slope Streaks
A new study by researchers at Brown University and the University of Bern used machine learning to analyze 86,000 high-resolution images of Mars. Their findings suggest that recurring slope lineae (RSLs)—dark streaks once thought to indicate liquid water—are actually caused by dry processes like wind and dust movement. With over 500,000 feature...

New Study Confirms TeV Halos Are Common in Middle-Aged Pulsars
A recent study by researchers from the U.S. and Mexico using data from the HAWC Observatory has confirmed that TeV halos are a universal feature of middle-aged pulsars. These extended regions of gamma-ray emission are significantly larger than pulsar wind nebulae and may help identify otherwise undetectable pulsars. The findings challenge existing ...

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...

28 Major US Cities Are Sinking, Including NYC and Chicago, Satellite Study Finds
A new satellite study has revealed that 28 of the most populous U.S. cities, including New York and Chicago, are sinking by up to 10 millimetres yearly. Researchers found that groundwater extraction is the key driver behind this trend, raising silent but serious threats to infrastructure, even in inland cities not typically prone to such risks.
