  • Scientists in China found a new way to control light — Could this be the future of wireless?

    Scientists have generated ultra-stable, donut-shaped light structures called skyrmions. These innovative beams can carry data at terahertz frequencies, promising faster, more reliable wireless communication in the future.

  • Scientists break 165-year-old Kirchhoff’s thermal radiation law with engineered metamaterial

    A Penn State team has shattered Kirchhoff’s 165-year-old law of thermal radiation. Their engineered metamaterial emits more heat in one direction than it absorbs, opening doors for next-generation energy, sensors and heat management.

  • A Harvard scientist claims to have found the exact location of heaven, but can humans reach it?

    A former Harvard professor links modern cosmology with scripture, suggesting heaven may exist beyond the universe’s Cosmic Horizon, a place humans can never reach, raising fresh questions about science, faith, and space.

  • Hot black ice might solve Neptune’s longstanding magnetic mystery; Here's what study says

    Scientists suggest superionic “hot black ice” deep inside Neptune may explain its tilted, offset and chaotic magnetic field, offering insights into ice giant interiors and planetary physics.

  • From fiction to reality: Chinese scientist creates real-life Harry Potter–like invisibility cloak

    A Chinese scientist’s viral demonstration shows how simple optics can make body parts vanish, sparking global debate over whether real-world invisibility is science, illusion, or something in between.

  • Indian scientists develop "PhotonSync" for long-distance Quantum communication

    Indian scientists develop PhotonSync, turning ordinary telecom fibre into a phase-coherent quantum channel. It stabilises photons, enabling long-distance secure quantum communication and marking a breakthrough in India’s quantum research.

  • Electricity Through Air? Finland scientists made electricity that flows in air without wires

    Scientists in Finland transmitted electricity through air using sound waves, lasers, and radio frequencies, creating “acoustic wires” that could revolutionize homes, industry and IoT devices without plugs or traditional cables.

  • Study suggests that ghost particles maybe interacting with dark matter

    Scientists have found hints that ghostly neutrinos may interact with dark matter. The unexpected link could help explain mysterious differences between cosmic theories and real observations.

  • How could the universe accelerate without dark energy? Here is what study says

    Scientists propose a new gravity theory using Friedmann equations. Their model explains the universe’s accelerating expansion naturally, challenging dark energy and offering fresh insights into cosmic evolution.

  • Birmingham’s sky suddenly turned "Pink" — Here’s the real reason

    Birmingham residents were stunned as the night sky turned bright pink during a winter storm, caused by stadium floodlights reflecting off snow and clouds, not auroras or any cosmic phenomenon.

  • Why Venezuela’s tallest waterfall seems to disappear mid-air? Mystery explained

    Venezuela’s Angel Falls, the world’s tallest waterfall, appears to vanish mid-air as wind, air resistance and evaporation break the falling water into mist before it ever reaches the ground.

  • What is happening inside Earth’s core? A rare “superionic” state of matter explained

    Scientists have discovered that Earth’s inner core may not be fully solid. A rare “superionic” state of matter could explain strange seismic signals and reshape our understanding of the planet’s hidden heart.

  • Scientists detect ghost particles transforming from Carbon into Nitrogen

    Scientists have directly observed solar neutrinos transforming carbon into nitrogen underground, confirming long-predicted particle physics and offering new insight into processes powering the Sun.

  • Ramanujan’s 100-year-old pi formula reveals a hidden Universe in modern physics

    Why did Ramanujan’s formulae stay relevant for a century? His set of 17 expressions offered huge speed. They gave long digit chains with fewer steps taken.

  • How Ramanujan’s 'Pi' formulae unlock the secrets of modern physics

    IISc researchers connect Ramanujan’s century-old pi formulae with modern physics, uncovering surprising mathematical structures.

  • Scientists revisit old theory: Are tiny ancient black holes passing through our bodies unseen?

    A provocative theory is gaining new support today. Scientists suggest atom-sized black holes may move through Earth. These primordial black holes likely formed after the Big Bang.
