A German graduate student, Britta Späth, encountered the McKay conjecture, a significant open problem in group theory, in 2003. She dedicated her time to solving it, eventually teaming up with mathematician Marc Cabanes, whom she fell in love with. After 20 years of work, the couple has successfully solved the problem, providing a concrete tool…
Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery about the Earth’s inner core, revealing that it is changing shape. This finding, published in Nature Geoscience, has sparked new questions about the potential effects on the planet’s magnetic field, day length, and more. Researchers analyzed seismic waves from earthquakes to determine that the inner core has been deforming…

The company’s innovative approach to passive income has made cryptocurrency mining easier and more accessible to everyone, with flexible investment options and no additional service…
A recent solar storm has triggered the formation of two new, persistent bands of radiation around Earth, encircling the planet in a zone previously thought to be empty. These temporary radiation belts, which could last for months or even years, pose a threat to satellites and astronauts, and may require engineers to rethink their designs…
Elon Musk’s AI company, xAI, has released its latest flagship AI model, Grok 3, which boasts enhanced capabilities in image analysis and question-answering. The new model has been in development for several months and surpasses its predecessor, Grok 2, in terms of computing power and accuracy. Grok 3 is set to revolutionize the AI landscape,…
Scientists at the KM3NeT neutrino observatory have made a groundbreaking discovery by detecting an ultra-high-energy cosmic neutrino with an energy greater than 100 PeV. This finding has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of cosmic neutrino sources and may even reveal new physics beyond the Standard Model. The detection of such a high-energy neutrino opens…
The BTCBULL token has raised over $2 million in just one week of pre-sale, offering investors a unique opportunity to receive real Bitcoin as the price reaches certain milestones.

Scientists have discovered the secret to the mantis shrimp’s powerful punches, which can exceed 1,000 times the animal’s body weight without causing injury. The exoskeleton of the mantis shrimp’s club-like forelimbs is built to filter out damaging pressure waves, and its unique architecture could inspire new materials such as impact-resistant armor and aerospace structures. Forecast…
Researchers from France and Spain have developed a theoretical model to forecast the movements of confined, densely packed crowds. The study, published in Nature, analyzed high-resolution video footage of the Chupinazo opening ceremony of the San Fermín Festival in Pamplona, Spain, and revealed a change in behavior akin to a phase change when the crowd…
The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) has abruptly cancelled its $60-million initiative to boost diversity in university science programs, leaving scientists reeling. The move comes amid US President Donald Trump’s executive orders targeting “illegal” diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies and funding. The cancellation has unsettled many scientists, who are concerned about the impact on…
