A groundbreaking gene therapy has been successfully administered to a baby in Philadelphia, marking a significant milestone in the treatment of genetic diseases. The therapy, based on the CRISPR gene-editing system, was designed to correct a mutation in the baby’s CPS1 gene, which causes a rare disorder that prevents the liver from converting ammonia to…
Tesla has filed new trademark applications for the term “Tesla Robotaxi” after its previous attempts to secure trademarks for its planned self-driving vehicle service hit roadblocks. The company aims to use the trademarks for its autonomous ride-hailing service, related mobile app, and vehicles. Tesla’s applications are pending review by the USPTO, which may take months…
Researchers at the University of Science and Technology of China have developed a new contact lens that enables humans to see near-infrared light without bulky equipment. The lens incorporates metallic nanoparticles that “upconvert” normally-invisible wavelengths into visible ones, with potential applications for rescue workers and others who benefit from enhanced vision in poor visibility conditions….

A recent study published in Nature Astronomy suggests that the odds of a collision between the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy within 10 billion years are only about 50 percent. The researchers found that the Milky Way’s largest satellite system, the Large Magellanic Cloud, may be the key to preventing the collision, introducing some…
A groundbreaking study has revealed that powerful flares on highly-magnetic neutron stars called magnetars could produce up to 10% of the universe’s gold, silver, and platinum. Researchers have created a model that describes how these flares can create r-process elements, and they may have already observed this cosmic alchemy in action. Forecast for 6 months:…
A team of mathematicians has made a groundbreaking discovery by extending the modularity connection from elliptic curves to more complicated equations called abelian surfaces. This breakthrough has the potential to unlock new insights and solutions to previously intractable problems in mathematics, and may even have implications for other fields such as physics and computer science….
Fans Hash, a cloud mining platform, has taken the cryptocurrency world by storm with its promise of high-yield Dogecoin mining. The platform’s user-friendly interface and zero-threshold investment model have attracted a massive following, sparking questions about the future of Dogecoin and its potential for stable wealth growth. As investors flock to Fans Hash, the cryptocurrency…
Biologists have discovered a surprising link between the extravagant wing tails of big, green luna moths and a cozy climate. The research, led by behavioral ecologist Juliette Rubin, found that the ribbony tails, which have evolved independently at least five times in the family of luna and other moon moths, are more likely to develop…
Sahil Lavingia, a well-known Silicon Valley figure, has shared his 55-day experience working as a software engineer for Elon Musk’s DOGE workforce, a temporary government organization formed by President Trump’s executive order. Lavingia’s account provides new insights into the workings of the VA and DOGE, highlighting the challenges of implementing technology in a large government…
