“The penguins down there are going to have a great show.”

What happens in the eastern tropical Pacific doesn't stay in the eastern tropical Pacific.

Vaccine developers of the future should now be able to eliminate this particular risk.

Researchers have discovered that a little-known by-product of sunflower oil production could dramatically improve the nutritional value of bread. As more people look for healthier options beyond traditional wheat products, researchers are exploring ingredients that can improve nutrition without sacrificing practicality. One promising candidate is partially defatted sunflower seed flour (SF) – a by-product of [...]

Dark energy is one of those cosmological features that we are still learning about. While we can’t see it directly, we can most famously observe its effects on the universe - primarily how it is causing the expansion of the universe to speed up. But recently, physicists have begun to question even that narrative, pointing to results that show the expansion isn’t happening at the same rate our math would have predicted. In essence, dark energy might be changing over time, and that would have a huge impact on the universe’s expansion and cosmological physics in general. A new paper available in pre-print on arXiv from Dr. Slava Turyshev, who is also famously the most vocal advocate of the Solar Gravitational Lens mission, explores an alternative possibility that our data is actually just messy from inaccuracies in how we measure particular cosmological features - like supernovae.
