The enzyme AMPD1 plays a key role in muscle energy production and normal muscular function. Loss of AMPD1 activity due to genetic mutations is the most common cause of metabolic myopathy in Europeans, occurring at a frequency of 9% to 14%.

What you can see on the moon tonight.

Evidence of algae growth and climate simulations reveal the Arctic had seasonal ice, not a permanent ice shelf, for much of the past 750,000 years. These insights challenge long-standing theories. For a long time, researchers have debated whether a thick, con…

An international team of astronomers report the discovery of a long-period radio transient, which is unusually circularly polarized and showcases an accelerating spin period. The finding of the new transient, designated CHIME J1634+44, was detailed in a paper…

Asteroid 2025 MA90 is set to fly past the Earth on Tuesday, July 15. With an estimated diameter of 88.8 meters, that comes out to around 145 Elmos, thanks to measurements taken by Drew Brees.

A new leap in lab automation is shaking up how scientists discover materials. By switching from slow, traditional methods to real-time, dynamic chemical experiments, researchers have created a self-driving lab that collects 10 times more data, drastically acc…

"We need more study."

A pet cat in Florida may have made scientific history by enabling the discovery of not one but two new strains of viruses.

On the remote volcanic islands of the Galápagos, wild tomatoes are doing something no one expected. A surprising genetic twist hints at a return to ancient traits once thought lost forever.

In November 2026, Voyager 1 will achieve an incredible feat, traveling farther than any spacecraft before it. After almost 50 years, this historic moment marks a major milestone in space exploration.

New images reveal that the strange Martian stripes on the slopes are formed by avalanches of dry dust, not liquid water.

LEWIS COUNTY- We have gotten wind that the New York State DEC is soon expected to announce a new state record Brook Trout that just so happened to be caught in the Adirondacks. Rumors started circulating last-week, but an online blog report from ‘Big Woods …

Astronomers have detected a giant exoplanet—between three and ten times the size of Jupiter—hiding in the swirling disk of gas and dust surrounding a young star.

A mysterious and deadly disease is wreaking havoc on sea stars along Florida’s Atlantic coast, according to researchers.

Long thought to be completely disordered, space ice appears to have some crystallized regions, new research suggests.

Nearly 300 MIchoud workers were notified they would be laid off June 30, after NASA did not renew the contract of that company that employed them, Syncom Space Services,

A waning gibbous moon and Saturn will shine together as they rise after dark on Tuesday, July 15, 2025.

Musk wants to settle a million people on Mars.

Using an advanced Monte Carlo method, Caltech researchers found a way to tame the infinite complexity of Feynman diagrams and solve the long-standing polaron problem, unlocking deeper understanding of electron flow in tricky materials.

Will we build a successor collider to the LHC? Someday, we'll reach the true limit of what experiments can probe. But that won't be the end.

You are probably familiar with initiatives like Seti@Home, where you donate unused computer power to some science project that needs computer cycles. [Jeff Yoshimi] wants to borrow your most powerf…

Volcanic eruptions can destroy essential infrastructure, ground air traffic for days, wipe out entire cities, disrupt the climate for years, and even wipe out life on Earth, so it's important to know what causes them to blow.

Brain dynamics and cognition share genetic roots. Criticality may guide future brain health research. A recent study published on June 24 in PNAS presents strong evidence that brain criticality—the delicate balance between neural excitation and inhibition—is …

IN A NUTSHELL 🔭 The James Webb Space Telescope has directly imaged its first exoplanet, TWA 7b, revolutionizing exoplanet discovery. 🪐 TWA 7b, a planet with a mass similar to Saturn, is located about 100 light-years from Earth, offering insights into planet…

Experts anticipate optimal visibility for one of the most stunning astronomical events, as our Moon “joins” the Red Planet in the night sky.
