In the black depths of the northwest Pacific Ocean, between 6,000 and 9,500 metres beneath the surface, scientists have discovered what is now considered the deepest complex chemosynthetic ecosystem ever recorded. This remarkable find, located in the Kuril-Kamchatka and Aleutian trenches, is composed of tubeworms, clams, snails, sea cucumbers, and other invertebrates — all thriving […]
Critically, NISAR’s data will be publicly available. That means not only scientists and governments, but also nonprofits, local planners, and startups can build tools and services using the data.
Mineral sunscreens are one of nature’s most thoughtful solutions. Unlike many chemical options, mineral filters are not absorbed into the bloodstream and are less likely to induce an allergic reaction, making them a smart choice for individuals with sensitive skin, allergies, or autoimmune conditions.

From a sustainability standpoint, this study feeds into a growing conversation around how we value marine life and intelligence in environmental policy. If octopuses exhibit this level of sentient processing, how should that affect the way we fish, farm, or conserve them?
The findings open new avenues for exploring how shared perception and outlook may influence mental resilience—and offer insights into the neural underpinnings of emotional health.
The $19 strawberry from Japan for sale in LA shows us the problems with our global food chain.
The endangerment finding has been the scientific and legal backbone of US climate policy for more than a decade. Without it, the EPA loses its authority to regulate carbon emissions under the Clean Air Act.
Camera traps have captured thirsty jaguars, pumas, snakes, and rare margays stopping in for a drink. Scientists say this glimpse into animal behavior under heat stress is invaluable.
So, can herpes kill cancer? Not the kind you catch on a bad date. But a lab-modified version of the virus might just save lives, turning a once-feared pathogen into a new kind of precision weapon in oncology.
Located in northernmost Norway, about 2 000 kilometres north of the country’s capital, Oslo, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault maintains a constant temperature of -18°C to ensure long-term seed viability.
