Genetic study based on ancient DNA extracted from the skeletal remains embedded in the Pompeii plaster casts of the victims of volcanic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE contradicts traditional interpretations about the victims’ identities and relationships. Study...
Particle accelerators are used as research tools for the study of very early universe. Hadron colliders (particularly CERN’s Large Hadron Collider LHC) and electron-positron colliders are in forefront in exploration of very early universe. The ATLAS and CMS experiments...
The thylacine de-extinction project announced in 2022 has achieved new milestones in generation of the highest quality ancient genome, marsupial genome editing and new assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) for marsupials. These advancements will not only support resurrection of Tasmanian...
NASA has successfully launched Clipper mission to Europa into space on Monday 14 October 2024. Two-way communication has been established with the spacecraft since its launch and the current reports suggest that Europa Clipper is operating as expected and...
One half of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 has been awarded to David Baker “for computational protein design”. The other half has been awarded jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction”.   The Nobel...
The 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded jointly to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun “for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation”.   MicroRNAs (miRNAs) belong to a family of small, non-coding,...
The researchers have, for the first time, tracked the evolution of solar wind from its inception at the Sun to its impact on the near-Earth space environment and have also shown how a space weather event can be predicted...
Study of image taken by the JWST has led to discovery of a galaxy in the early universe about a billion years after the big bang whose light signature is attributed to its nebular gas outshining its stars. Now...
Roscosmos cosmonauts Nikolai Chub and Oleg Kononenko and NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson, have returned to Earth from International Space Station (ISS). They left the space station aboard the Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft and made a parachute-assisted landing in Kazakhstan on...
The researchers at CERN have succeeded in observing quantum entanglement between “top quarks” and at the highest energies. This was first reported in September 2023 and since confirmed by a first and second observation. The pairs of “top quarks” produced...
In September 2023, uniform single frequency seismic waves were recorded at centres across the globe which lasted for nine days. These seismic waves were very much unlike waves generated by earthquake or volcano hence how they were formed remained...
10th edition of the Science Summit at 79th United Nations General Assembly (SSUNGA79) will be held from the 10th to the 27th of September 2024 in New York City.   The main theme of the summit is the contribution of...
Matter has dual nature; everything exists both as particle and wave. At a temperature close to absolute zero, the wave nature of atoms become observable by radiation in visible range. At such ultracold temperatures in nanoKelvin range, the atoms...
The APXC instrument aboard the lunar rover of ISRO’s Chandrayaan-3 moon mission conducted in-situ spectroscopic study to ascertain abundance of elements in the soil around the landing site in south polar region of the Moon. This was the first...
Spectral analysis of luminous galaxy JADES-GS-z14-0 based on observations made in January 2024 revealed a redshift of 14.32 which makes it the most distant galaxy known (previous most-distant galaxy known was JADES-GS-z13-0 at the redshift of z = 13.2). It...
Fossils of ancient chromosomes with intact three-dimensional structure belonging to extinct woolly mammoth have been discovered from 52,000 old sample preserved in Siberian permafrost. This is the first case of fully preserved ancient chromosome. Study of fossil chromosomes can...
Supernova SN 1181 was seen with the naked eye in Japan and Chine 843 years ago in 1181 CE. However, its remanent could not be identified for a long time. In 2021, the nebula Pa 30 situated towards the...
The gigantic uniform aurora seen from the ground on the Christmas night of 2022 has been confirmed to be polar rain aurora. This was the first ground-based observation of polar rain aurora. Unlike typical aurora which are driven by...
In a recently published report, the Will Lab team of Columbia University reports success in crossing in BEC threshold and creation of Bose-Eienstein condensate (BEC) of NaCs molecules at a ultracold temperature of 5 nanoKelvin (= 5 X 10-9...
Tmesipteris oblanceolata , a type of fork fern native to New Caledonia in the southwest Pacific has been found to have the genome size of 160.45 Gigabase pairs (Gbp)/IC (1C = nuclear DNA content in a gametic nucleus). This is about...
Carrion crows can apply their learning ability and vocal control in combination to form an abstract numerical concept and use it for vocalizations.   Basic numerical ability (viz. capacity to understand and apply basic numerical ideas such as counting, adding...
The German cockroach (Blattella germanica) is world’s most common cockroach pest found in human households worldwide. These insects have an affinity for human dwellings and are not found in natural habitats outdoors.   The earliest record of this specie in Europe...
Why largest Pyramids in Egypt are clustered along a narrow strip in the desert? What means were used by the ancient Egyptians to transport such large heavy blocks of stones for construction of pyramids?   Experts have argued that perhaps...
A study involving measurements by James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) suggests that the exoplanet 55 Cancri e has a secondary atmosphere outgassed by magma ocean. Instead of vapourised rock, the atmosphere may be rich in CO2 and CO. This...
At least seven coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from the sun have been observed. Its impact arrived on Earth on 10 May 2024 and will continue through 12 May 2024.   The activity at sunspot AR3664 was captured by the GOES-16...
