NASA is set to launch four astronauts on Artemis II, a 10-day crewed mission around the moon marking humanity's farthest spaceflight in 54 years and a critical step toward lunar surface landing before China.
Indian-origin NASA astronaut Anil Menon launches July 14 for his first ISS mission, an eight-month expedition studying human health, testing advanced technologies, and preparing for deep-space exploration.
NHS clinicians report widespread misinformation about dietary supplements on social media, with 40% of health workers encountering patients with false claims weekly, raising cancer risk concerns.
Research shows large Sumatran earthquakes cause Singapore's land to sink gradually over years, a factor previously overlooked in sea-level rise projections and coastal adaptation planning.
The Perseid meteor shower begins this week, offering optimal viewing conditions under an 'Earthshine' moon. Stargazers across North America can witness the celestial display with minimal light interference.
Researcher Sheng-Hung Lee examines how design toolkits function as invisible yet essential mediators in participatory workshops, serving as boundary objects, research infrastructure, and synthesis artifacts that shape collaboration and knowledge creation.
NASA is developing regenerative fuel cells for lunar energy storage instead of traditional batteries, leveraging the Moon's water ice and reducing launch payload costs for the Artemis program.
University of Minnesota researchers created SpudCell, a synthetic cell-like system built from non-living chemicals that can feed, grow, replicate DNA and divide over multiple generations, advancing understanding of life's fundamental requirements.

Researchers discovered bacteria can convert dissolved uranium into a stable chemical compound (FeU(V)O4) when supplied with glycerol, reducing uranium levels by 95% in laboratory conditions and offering potential for environmental remediation.
A 2024 NEJM study found microplastics embedded in carotid artery plaque of 58% of patients, who were 4.5 times more likely to suffer heart attacks, strokes, or death. Follow-up research is investigating whether plastic exposure represents a new modifiable cardiovascular risk factor.
25-year-old Sree Supranayi co-founded AnduraX to develop India's first private reusable spaceplane, aiming to support ISRO's Bharatiya Antariksh Station and enable space-based pharmaceutical and semiconductor manufacturing by leveraging zero-gravity conditions.
NASA discovered an unidentified cloud of millimeter-sized orbital debris below 310 miles altitude with unknown origins, posing significant risks to spacecraft despite being nearly invisible to ground tracking systems.
Analistas projetam que a SpaceX pode atingir valor de mercado de US$ 10 trilhões com a expansão do Starship, ante os atuais US$ 1,9 trilhão da empresa de Elon Musk.
A USC-led study of 214,000 older adults across 14 countries finds dementia risk factors vary significantly by region, requiring tailored prevention strategies rather than universal approaches.
Surgeons warn that antimicrobial resistance from indiscriminate antibiotic use is undermining surgical safety, with hospitals now implementing stricter stewardship practices and comprehensive infection prevention strategies beyond antibiotics alone.
JIAS releases supplement on eliminating vertical HIV transmission, highlighting progress with sub-2% transmission rates under adequate care while addressing persistent challenges in maternal adherence and resource-limited settings.
Scientists discovered that light can slow nanoparticle movement through quantum friction, reversing conventional understanding that light adds energy. The effect could enable precise control of nanorobots and chemical reactions.
New research reveals that small-scale turbulence in the deep ocean can influence climate patterns within a single year, not just over centuries. Current climate models fail to account for these crucial mixing processes.
Indonesian researchers confirmed a large meteor passed over Java on July 11, 2026, creating a bright display and sonic boom heard across multiple regions before likely ending in the Indian Ocean.
UniSQ's Mount Kent Observatory marks 30 years since its 1996 official opening, evolving from a hand-built water tank observatory into Australia's second-largest astronomical facility and a leader in exoplanet research.
Satélites da NASA detectam erupção vulcânica no Mar de Bismarck que pode originar uma nova ilha ao norte de Papua-Nova Guiné. Cientistas monitoram a atividade para determinar se o material liberado será suficiente para formar terra permanente.
A 2026 study of meteorite NWA 12774 suggests it contains minerals formed under pressures indicating a Moon-sized planetary embryo once orbited the young Sun before being destroyed in a collision.
Researchers detected ambipolar diffusion in prestellar core L1544, revealing how magnetic fields weaken to allow gravity to trigger star formation. This first direct observation validates theoretical models of stellar evolution.
Indian scientists are making significant progress in mapping previously unexplored regions of the brain, advancing neuroscience research and understanding of neural function.
