Dr. Andrew Ashton: “On Earth, we get accustomed to certain wave dynamics. But with this model, we can see how waves behave on planets with different liquids, atmospheres, and gravity, which can kind of challenge our intuition.” www.labroots.com/trending/spa...

#DidYouKnow Earth’s oxygen is produced by the ocean. While we often attribute trees on land for producing oxygen from photosynthesis, about 50% of Earth's oxygen actually comes from marine organisms, specifically plankton and seaweed.

“The presence of fungal species in cleanroom environments, their potential to survive prolonged exposure to space conditions, in combination with the results of this study, underscore fungal conidia as a significant consideration for planetary protection.” www.labroots.com/trending/spa...

A new review suggests that current amyloid-beta targeting drugs provide only minimal clinical benefits for Alzheimer’s patients despite their high costs and risks. www.labroots.com/trending/dru...

AI is shifting environmental science from observation to prediction, leveraging data-driven models to better address global climate challenges. www.labroots.com/trending/tec...

“Earth's radiation belts are the only place in the universe where we can directly sample such high-energy astrophysical environments,” said Dr. Clare Watt. www.labroots.com/trending/spa...
