How Social Media and Algorithms Are Rewiring Public Understanding of Health
A new book examines how platforms, influencers and algorithms reshape health information, widen gaps in care and complicate trust in medicine.
Age and Walking: How the Body Trades Efficiency for Stability
Research shows older adults stiffen the ankle to gain stability, reducing stride length and increasing fatigue; targeted exercises may help preserve mobility.
NASA release: first images of August 12 total solar eclipse over Spain reveal corona and prominences
NASA scientists released images from the Aug. 12 total solar eclipse observed over northern Spain, showing the Sun's corona, a pink prominence and Baily's Beads; the event coincides with a new moon ahead of the Perseid meteor shower.
Researchers Use Starlink Constellation to Map Upper Atmospheric Density
Scientists reconstructed density variations near 500 km altitude using data from about 1,200 Starlink satellites, improving orbital tracking and collision awareness.
Genetic basis identified for suicidal mating in male redback spiders
A crossbreeding study in Latrodectus species reveals X-linked inheritance for the somersaulting 'backflip' and a more complex genetic basis for abdominal constriction during mating.
Hidden switch in silver nanocatalysts may improve clean power and hydrogen efficiency
Researchers found that silver nanocatalysts change where they catalyze reactions depending on whether a solid oxide cell makes electricity or hydrogen, offering pathways for more efficient green hydrogen and cleaner power.
