We often wonder where all the vast and ancient alien civilizations are, but could it be that they’ve migrated far away in space or time, or even journeyed beyond our cosmos?

Professor Donald Hoffman is a cognitive neuroscientist and the author of more than 90 scientific papers and three books, including Visual Intelligence and The Case Against Reality.

He is best known for his theory of consciousness, which combines evolutionary theory with mathematics to make a compelling case that the reality we see every day is an illusion created by our minds.

Programmable and reversible CRISPRi-based genetic circuits function in a variety of plants.

Unfortunately, while the science behind sauna use for longevity seems more convincing than cold plunging, saunas themselves cost a lot more than cold plunges…

Heat therapy seems to be good for longevity, so we looked around for the top-rated home saunas to bring those health benefits to you.

Images that NASA’s DART spacecraft captured of an asteroid moments before it intentionally collided with the object in 2022 have now allowed researchers to gain fresh insights into the celestial bodies.

The slew of studies published this week using data gathered from the asteroids Didymos and Dimorphos are an indication, researchers say, that the DART mission accomplished far more than just proving that potentially dangerous asteroids can be redirected from a trajectory toward Earth.

The findings published Tuesday across five research papers help to characterize the origin, evolution and physical characteristics of the two asteroids, located within 7 million miles of Earth. What the researchers discovered could help scientists better understand binary asteroids, such as Didymos and Dimorphos, in which the smaller body orbits the other.

Earth and Venus share some interesting similarities. Some of those similarities extend deep into the planets’ interiors.
