Researchers suggest detecting “Daisy Worlds”—self-regulating biospheres—by analyzing information flow between life and planetary conditions. Using Semantic Information Theory, they aim to find "agnostic biosignatures," signs of life beyond trad
A new screw-driven robot prototype can autonomously navigate and mine rocky planets like Mars using Archimedean screws, ideal for challenging surfaces like sand and snow. Developed with EU support, it holds potential for extraterrestrial mining missions.
NASA’s Webb Telescope recently studied tiny dust particles in space, likely from asteroids and comets. These particles could reveal insights into planetary formation and the spread of essential life materials. Scientists aim to uncover cosmic processes
Hundreds of lizard species don’t have legs. Legless lizards had limbs at one point, but their arms and legs became smaller over millions of years until they disappeared entirely. Many legless lizards live underground, where it’s easier to slither thr
