Straight out of sci-fi: Scientists achieve long-distance “quantum teleportation” for the first time
Scientists have successfully “beamed up” units of quantum information known as qubits over a great distance for the first time. Led by scientists from the California Institute of Technology, a team of researchers demonstrated this so-called “quantum teleportation” across 27 miles of fiber optics in two testbeds: the Caltech Quantum Network (CQNET) and the Fermilab Quantum Network […]

Does the solar system have a “Planet Nine”? Researchers say it’s a possibility
A planet orbiting a pair of stars more than 300 light-years away may offer clues to a mystery object called “Planet Nine” that is thought to reside in the outskirts of the solar system. Scientists from the University of California, Berkeley and the European Southern Observatory (ESO) in Chile performed the first complete orbital measurements on a Jupiter-like exoplanet whose orbit is unusually […]

Study suggests the ice age was caused by global cooling after a giant asteroid collision in space
An international team of researchers suggests that a massive asteroid collision in space may have triggered the ice age 460 million years ago. In a study published in the journal Science Advances, the researchers said that the breakup of an enormous asteroid sent massive amounts of debris whirring through the solar system, shrouding Earth with a thick blanket […]

Space station experiment shows how bacteria can be used for space mining
An international team of researchers has successfully used bacteria to mine precious resources in space, boosting the bid to establish a self-sustaining human presence in distant worlds. In a study published in the journal Nature Communications, the researchers said that microbes enhanced the extraction of rare earth elements while aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The experiment demonstrates that using […]

Mysterious blobs of radio emissions found floating in space
Astronomers are scratching their heads over ghostly blobs of radio emissions found floating in space last year. Ray Norris of Western Sydney University said that the mysterious blobs, which were dubbed “odd radio circles” (ORCs), weren’t quite like anything known before. “[We ran] through all the possibilities and conclude these enigmatic blobs don’t look like […]

Melatonin therapy a promising coronavirus treatment – study
Melatonin is a hormone mainly produced by the pineal gland. Commonly known as a natural sleep regulator, it also plays a role in gene expression and cancer prevention and has the rare ability to enter the mitochondria. As a potent antioxidant, it helps prevent mitochondrial damage and energy failure caused by oxidation. Recent studies also show that melatonin may help […]

“Mask mouth,” skin disease and breathing difficulties: Experts reveal the dangers of prolonged use of face masks
Wearing protective face masks is now a common practice, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. But while health officials are busy reminding the public to keep their masks on, researchers are starting to question whether face masks are really effective. Studies have shown that they may not provide the level of protection that mask advocates initially rest their faith on. […]

“Covidization” of research? Scientists lament intense focus on coronavirus as other disciplines lose traction
Scientists are concerned that the COVID-19 pandemic may have led to the neglect of other scientific disciplines as resources such as funding and manpower get directed mostly to coronavirus research. Neuroscientist Lisbeth Evered of Weill Cornell Medicine in New York started questioning the value of her chosen field after feeling sidelined by colleagues whose recent work centered on […]

Canadian glaciers nearly 40 percent thicker than initially thought, according to researchers
A study published in the Journal of Glaciology shows that the glaciers in Canada’s portion of the Columbia Basin are nearly 40 percent thicker than previously thought. Researchers from the University of Northern British Columbia (UNBC) and the University of Innsbruck arrived at their findings by using ice-penetrating radar to measure the thickness of the glaciers. The research marks the first major effort […]
