The Sun has unleashed a quartet of strong solar flares, which could herald a wild week of space weather. It all kicked off at 12:33 UTC on February 1, when the Sun fired off an X1.0 flare. About 11 hours later, at 23:37 UTC, a massive eruption occurred with an X8.1 flare. Two more followed
“You have to be a pleasant person to work with, that’s number one,” Purvis says. “You have to deal with pressure, stress and uncertainty and still be able to perform in your job – you can train for every scenario but something’s going to happen that we can’t predict.” What has also become apparent from
Generative artificial intelligence models have been used to create enormous libraries of theoretical materials that could help solve all kinds of problems. Now, scientists just have to figure out how to make them. In many cases, materials synthesis is not as simple as following a recipe in the kitchen. Factors like the temperature and length
In vivo imaging of ER dynamics in adult C. elegans Many ER proteins are enriched in specific structural and functional subdomains20,28,36. To study ER dynamics during ageing, we developed transgenic C. elegans strains with labels capable of distinguishing rough or tubular ER. SEC-61.B is an essential component of the ER translocon enriched in rough ER
In the moments following the Big Bang, the extreme heat and pressure coerced matter into a goopy mix of tiny particles. But how goopy? The answer had remained rather unclear to physicists—until now. Quarks and gluons are fundamental particles that make up protons and neutrons. These particles are typically bound together, but the extreme conditions

The space agency provides all astronauts with plenty of Nikon Z9s and an array of different lenses, encouraging them to capture what they see. PetaPixel
NASA’s Perseverance rover has discovered thousands of strangely bleached rocks on Mars that are rich in a mineral difficult to form without long-term exposure to water, adding fresh evidence that the Red Planet was warmer, wetter and possibly rain-soaked billions of years ago. The newfound Mars rocks are rich in kaolinite, a soft, white, clay
The mushrooms spread out on the chopping board seemed normal enough. They were rich and dense, and had a strong earthy aroma. In the saucepan, they melted – along with the cheese – to form a creamy pasta sauce. A quick taste test proved they were delicious. The rich lion’s mane flavour immediately shone through.
Because of this, NASA engineers accept that a small amount of hydrogen will escape seals in the fueling line. Agency officials said in 2022 that the safe limit was a 4 percent concentration of hydrogen gas in the housing around the fueling connector. Hydrogen levels exceeded NASA’s safety limit multiple times during the practice countdown
