Tigris River oil spill highlights Iraq’s environmental oversight and our addiction to oil

A fresh oil spill in the Tigris River, filmed by an Iraqi university student, has reignited concern over Iraq's polluted waterways. From ancient Mesopotamia to modern Basra, the country's dependence on oil has come at a steep environmental and human cost, with activists warning that unchecked contamination is putting ecosystems and public health at risk.

Doctor-Led Direct Hair Transplant: What Surgeon Involvement Means for Outcomes

Hair restoration technology continues to evolve, but the surgeon behind the procedure remains the most important factor. Doctor-led hair transplants emphasize careful diagnosis, conservative donor management, natural hairline design, and long-term planning rather than simply maximizing graft counts. By treating donor hair as a limited resource and tailoring each procedure to the patient's future hair loss, experienced surgeons can reduce the need for corrective surgery while delivering more natural, sustainable results.

Data centers in Space? Sophia Space and Apex plan on busing them in

Can data centers really be built in space? Pasadena-based Sophia Space is partnering with Apex to test the idea by launching modular AI computing systems into low Earth orbit in 2027. Using radiation-hardened compute TILEs cooled by passive radiative systems and mounted on scalable satellite buses, the companies aim to prove that edge computing can operate reliably in space. While challenges remain, the project represents an important step toward distributed orbital computing networks that could support everything from climate monitoring and pollution tracking to autonomous spacecraft navigation in an increasingly crowded orbital environment.

Is your shawarma wrapped in forever chemicals? The hidden microplastics in street feed

Shawarma is one of the world's most popular street foods, but the greatest health risk may not be the meat, pickles or tahini. Scientists are increasingly concerned about PFAS "forever chemicals" and microplastics that can migrate from food packaging into hot, greasy takeaway meals. As awareness grows about hidden toxins in everyday products, even your favorite shawarma wrap may be part of a much larger environmental and public health story.
