The southern viscacha’s “sad” face isn’t emotion, it’s evolution. Every feature, from fur to kidneys, helps survival in the Andes’ harsh, high-altitude, cold and dry environment.
From forests to oceans, some animals shimmer like gold. Why do these birds, fish, and mammals glow in brilliant yellow and metallic hues, and what purpose does it truly serve?
Meet the yellow-throated marten, a fearless Asian forest carnivore whose intelligence, agility and hunting skills play a vital role in maintaining ecosystem balance.
Final data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope has ruled out 30 models of the universe, sharpening the Hubble tension and suggesting current cosmological theories remain incomplete.
Astronomers rarely see distant planets directly, instead tracking tiny stellar wobbles and fading light. How do these subtle clues reveal hidden worlds beyond our solar system?
Webb telescope observations hint that a scorching rocky exoplanet may hold a thick atmosphere above molten rock, defying expectations about how close-in worlds survive intense stellar radiation.
Copperheads may threaten humans, but kingsnakes hunt venomous rivals. When these two share territory, which snake truly dominates, and why does venom not decide the outcome every time?
Female manta rays lead dozens of males in spectacular underwater dance-offs near Yap Island, revealing mating behaviour, intelligence and unique physiology while aiding marine conservation research.
Scientists have mapped the sun’s outer atmosphere, revealing where solar wind escapes and magnetic influence ends. How does this jagged, shifting boundary affect space weather and our solar system?
Scientists have discovered trace gases from Earth reaching the Moon, revealing unexpected interplanetary connections and offering potential resources for future lunar bases and space exploration missions.
A rare interstellar comet will sweep past Earth this week at a safe distance, giving scientists a brief chance to study material formed around another star before it vanishes forever.
Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS will make its closest approach to Earth on December 19, 2025, offering astronomers a rare chance to study material from another star system.
Scientists have uncovered a massive, never-seen-before rock layer deep beneath Bermuda, offering fresh clues to the island’s enduring geological mystery and raising new questions about how Earth’s crust truly forms.
New research suggests Uranus and Neptune may not be true ice giants, with rocky interiors dominating instead, challenging long-standing models of planetary formation and classification.
Scientists sequence South American lungfish genome, 30 times larger than humans, breaking records and revealing insights into vertebrate evolution, genome expansion, and living fossils.
Neutron star NGC 7793 P13’s decade-long monitoring shows huge X-ray and spin changes, providing clues to supercritical accretion and high-energy phenomena in compact cosmic objects.
Scientists have reclassified the Pinocchio chameleon and uncovered a hidden species in Madagascar. DNA analysis reveals previously misidentified reptiles, highlighting biodiversity and evolutionary insights for conservation.
Scientists have detected H5N1 bird flu exposure in vampire bats, revealing a previously hidden wildlife pathway that could influence how dangerous viruses move between species.
Indian startup Astrobase is developing an advanced methane rocket engine using full-flow combustion, aiming for a reusable medium-lift launch vehicle and a maiden orbital launch by 2029.
Astronomers reveal some hot Jupiters formed via smooth disk migration. Circular orbits and aligned companions challenge traditional theories, offering new insights into exoplanetary system evolution.
ISRO has rescheduled the BlueBird‑6 launch to December 21, 2025. The heaviest US satellite will enhance global broadband. Watch the live launch from Sriharikota on official ISRO channels.
NASA’s Webb telescope and Curiosity rover inducted into TIME Hall of Fame, celebrating decades of scientific achievement, discovery and groundbreaking space exploration impact.
JWST has captured exoplanet Tylos shedding its atmosphere into two giant tails, revealing how extreme stellar radiation can slowly tear planets apart.
Calligraphy beetles display intricate shell patterns resembling ancient writing. These markings aid camouflage, protect against predators and reveal nature’s surprising creativity and evolutionary ingenuity.
Scientists detected hundreds of hidden icequakes at Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier, revealing glacial seismic activity linked to iceberg calving and improving predictions of future sea-level rise.
