Astronomers using the Murchison Widefield Array in Western Australia have searched for alien signals at a 10 kHz spectral resolution originating from a population of about 2,800 galaxies toward the Vela supernova remnant.

Named Haliotis pirimoana, the newly-identified gastropod species is only found at Manawatāwhi Three Kings Islands, off New Zealand’s North Island.

At least 140 million Sun-like stars in our Milky Way Galaxy are likely to have experienced a similar stellar flyby, according to new research by a team of astrophysicists from the Forschungszentrum Jülich and Leiden University.

Martian ‘spiders’ are small, dark, spider-shaped features up to 1 km (0.6 miles) across. The leading theory is that they form when spring sunshine falls on layers of carbon dioxide deposited over the dark winter months. Thanks to new experiments, a team of scientists at NASA has, for the first time, re-created those formation processes in simulated Martian temperatures and air pressure.

In a new study on the UK Biobank cohort, habitual coffee or caffeine consumption, especially at a moderate level, was associated with a lower risk of new-onset cardiometabolic multimorbidity, which refers to the coexistence of at least two cardiometabolic diseases.

Syntretus perlmani infects the adult stage of fruit flies in the genus Drosophila, including one of the most deeply studied model organisms in biology, Drosophila melanogaster.

Geologists from Virginia Commonwealth University and elsewhere have found new evidence of bolide impact signatures within specimens from the Massive Australian Precambrian-Cambrian Impact Structure in the Northern Territory, Australia.

The recently-discovered near-Earth asteroid called 2024 PT5 will become Earth's mini-moon from September 29 until November 25, 2024.

A team of marine biologists led by a Florida International University researcher has described a new species of the shark genus Sphyrna from the Caribbean and the Southwest Atlantic.

A team of biologists in Israel has grown an extinct -- or at least extirpated -- tree species of the myrrh genus Commiphora from an ancient seed found in the northern Judean Desert in the 1980s.
