Unraveling the Mysteries of Ancient Whales and the Fossil-Rich Wadi El Hitan
Venture beyond Egypt’s iconic pyramids and delve into the lesser-known wonder of Wadi El Hitan, a treasure trove of ancient whale fossils and geological secrets that offer a unique perspective into our planet’s past.
The Allure of Egypt’s Rich History
Egypt’s enchanting […]
Scientists might have just found Earth’s icy, distant cousin a few hundred million light-years away. HD 137010 b is one of thousands of exoplanets, or planets that orbit other stars, and is potentially the first Earth-like one that also orbits a sun-like star. Initially observed in 2017 with data from the National Aeronautics and Space […]
Quantum technologies, computers or other devices that operate leveraging quantum mechanical effects, rely on the precise control of light and matter. Over the past decades, quantum physicists and material scientists have been trying to identify systems that can reliably generate photons (i.e., light particles) and could thus be used to create quantum technologies.

In recent years, scientists have increasingly turned their attention to the possibility of finding evidence of extraterrestrial technology. This is partly due to the discovery of the first interstellar object known to have passed through our solar system, ‘Oumuamua, which caused great excitement among astronomers and the public alike.
Interstellar Objects
Now, another interstellar […]

Preserving quantum information is key to developing useful quantum computing systems. But interacting quantum systems are chaotic and follow laws of thermodynamics, eventually leading to information loss. Physicists have long known of a strange exception, called dynamical freezing, when quantum systems shaken at precisely tuned frequencies evade these laws. But how long can this phenomenon […]
Recent decades have witnessed rapid advancements in high-intensity laser technology. The combination of laser irradiation and novel materials is opening exciting avenues for the design of functional materials and devices. Semiconductors are ideal platforms for generating laser-driven functionalities because they can exhibit novel features such as ultrafast optical transparency. This effect arises from electronic occupation […]
The globe is full of mysteries. There are lost cities, ancient civilizations, and unsolved puzzles. One of the most famous mysteries is the story of Atlantis. The legend of Atlantis tells the story of a massive volcanic eruption that destroyed an island nation.
Some believe this island was in the Atlantic Ocean, while others […]

Planetary systems such as our solar system take hundreds of millions of years to evolve. Since humanity has only existed for a sliver of that time, astronomers have only observed planetary systems at birth or, more often, long after they have settled into adulthood. There is an information gap about what happens in the middle. […]
Some solid materials can cool down or heat up when pressure is applied or released. This behavior enables cooling and heating technologies that do not rely on climate-damaging refrigerant gases. In practice, however, a major obstacle remains: many materials behave differently during heating and cooling, which makes their response difficult to use reliably in real […]

Simulated lunar dirt can be turned into extremely durable structures, potentially paving the way to more sustainable and cost-effective space missions, a new study suggests. Using a special laser 3D printing method, researchers melted fake lunar soil—a synthetic version of the fine dusty material on the moon surface, called regolith simulant—into layers and fused it […]
