Scientists have discovered the first ever “true” millipede with more than 1,000 legs 60 meters underground in a mining area in Western Australia, setting the record for the creature with the most legs known to humans. Announcing the discovery in the peer-reviewed Scientific Reports journal, the team of researchers revealed the record-setting new species had […]
The current definition of a “planet” is rooted in folklore and astrology, and must be dropped due to not meeting the needs of modern astronomy, a new study states, opening the doors for the Pluto comeback. Pluto was discovered in the ring of bodies beyond the orbit of Neptune, known as the Kuiper belt, back […]
Scientists from Japan have said that ostrich antibodies allowed them to design glowing masks, which help to tell if a person has contracted the coronavirus. The unusual detection method was developed by a team from the Kyoto Prefectural University, Kyodo News reported.

Researchers are constructing a ‘black box’ in Australia, a device that they say is meant to survive climate change disasters and warn future survivors about humanity’s mistakes. Described as a “tool,” the monolith is being “built to outlive us all” and will be constructed in a remote location on the island of Tasmania, Australian scientists […]
Israeli intelligence agency Mossad masterminded the destruction of a major Iranian nuclear facility and recruited a team of local scientists, the Jewish Chronicle has reported. “Up to 10 scientists were approached by Israeli agents and agreed to destroy the underground A1000 centrifuge hall at Natanz in April,” the newspaper claimed on Thursday, adding that the […]
Chinese scientists claim to have isolated an antibody which can effectively neutralize all strains of Covid-19, referencing both lab experiments and those performed on a living organism. In a study published on Tuesday, Chinese scientists from a variety of institutions, including Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou and Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, suggested that they may […]
Miniscule biological machines developed by scientists from the cells of frogs – commonly referred to as Xenobots – can now self-replicate, according to a new scientific report. The Xenobots were made public in a report last year, which suggested the self-repairing technology could be used to replace degradable materials such as concrete, steel, and plastic. […]
An earthquake that struck at a whopping 751 kilometers (467 miles) below the Earth’s surface is the deepest ever recorded, scientists have revealed. The tremor shook a zone thought to be impossible for quakes to occur in. The ultradeep quake rocked the remote Bonin (also known as Ogasawara) Islands off mainland Japan in 2015, coming […]
Using mathematical models, a quartet of Chinese scientists has argued that the first case of Covid-19 appeared between April and November 2019 in the northeastern US, long before the outbreak in Wuhan, China. “The calculation results show that the COVID-19 epidemic in the United States has a high probability of beginning to spread around September […]
Building a base on the Red Planet might literally take blood, sweat, and tears to achieve – a new study suggests the bodily fluids of astronauts sent to colonize Mars could be used to supply the water needed for construction. The unconventional approach to extraplanetary construction was put forward by scientists at the UK’s University […]
