Take a Trip to the Final Frontier With This Year’s Best Astronomy Photography

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-10-02 21:00:23

When a comet meets solar winds, its nuclear coma—a bright cloud of gas around its core—reacts vibrantly to our Sun’s solar maximum, leaving a trail of stellar gas and dust across the solar system. Miraculously, the sky above June Lake, California, cleared up for a full 13 minutes for photographer Dan Bartlett to image the comet clearly enough for his photograph, “Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks Taking a Final Bow.” With incredible technological advances, the continuous flow of space photos can sometimes

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-10-02 21:30:49

Of all the eccentricities of the quantum realm, time crystals—atomic arrangements that repeat certain motions over time—might be some of the weirdest. But they certainly exist, and to provide more solid proof, physicists have finally created a time crystal we can actually see. In a recent Nature Materials paper, physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder presented a new time crystal design: a glass cell filled with liquid crystals—rod-shaped molecules stuck in strange limbo between solid

If you look in the supplement aisle at your local pharmacy, you'll likely find different forms of creatine in gummies, powders, capsules and even drink mixes. That's because creatine is a popular fitness supplement for those who want to gain strength and power while improving performance. It's also naturally made in our bodies and assists our muscles with energy production when we work out. Though creatine can be found in smaller quantities in foods like salmon, chicken, beef and pork, many peo

New FAA program will let eVTOL startups test some operations before full certification

techcrunch.com Sean O'Kane 2025-10-02 21:33:06

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has announced a new pilot program that will let electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) startups test some operations before they receive full regulatory certification. It’s a potentially big change for these companies, as they’ve spent the last few years performing limited test flights of their aircraft while working toward FAA approval. But the program has its limits. Companies will have to partner with state, local, tribal, or territorial gove

New pathway engineered into plants lets them suck up more CO₂

Lots of people are excited about the idea of using plants to help us draw down some of the excess carbon dioxide we've been pumping into the atmosphere. It would be nice to think that we could reforest our way out of the mess we're creating, but recent studies have indicated there's simply not enough productive land for this to work out. One alternative might be to get plants to take up carbon dioxide more efficiently. Unfortunately, the enzyme that incorporates carbon dioxide into photosynthes
