The Dancing Plague of 1518 struck Strasbourg, France, where hundreds of people danced uncontrollably for days without stopping. Some died from exhaustion and heart failure. Historians believe it was caused by mass
Scientists have developed a technique to create 3D models of cosmic structures using polarized radio light data. This method offers new insights into phenomena like relativistic jets and black holes, challenging traditional 2D observations and aiding fut
Sharks don't have bones. They are a special type of fish known as "elasmobranchs", which translates into fish made of cartilaginous tissues. Even though sharks don't have bones, they still can fossilize. As most sharks age, they deposit calcium salts
Fact: On August 6, 1945, the U.S. dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan, killing over 140,000 people by the end of the year. This was a key event leading to the end of World War II.
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
Butterflies can not taste through their mouthparts. They also do not have mouthparts that can bite and chew, instead they have a long thin tubular structure that acts like a straw.
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
There are more trees on Earth than stars in the Milky Way galaxy. While the Milky Way contains hundreds of billions of stars, the number of trees is estimated to be in the trillions
