Astronomers discover how to feed a black hole Posted: 29 Jul 2021 11:34 AM PDT Researchers have discovered long narrow dust filaments which surround and feed black holes in the centers of galaxies, and which could be the natural cause of the darkening of the centers of many galaxies when their nuclear black holes are active. |
Planetary scientist puts Mars lake theory on ice with new study that offers alternate explanation Posted: 29 Jul 2021 11:34 AM PDT For years scientists have been debating what might lay under the Martian planet's south polar cap after bright radar reflections were discovered and initially attributed to water. But now, a new study puts that theory to rest and demonstrates for the first time that another material is most likely the answer. |
Weird, noodle-shaped amphibians known as caecilians found in South Florida canal Posted: 29 Jul 2021 09:22 AM PDT Caecilians have arrived in Miami. Florida Fish and Wildlife officers captured one of the obscure legless amphibians in the Tamiami Canal, the first example of an introduced caecilian in the U.S. |
Earthly rocks point way to water hidden on Mars Posted: 29 Jul 2021 09:21 AM PDT A combination of a once-debunked 19th-century identification of a water-carrying iron mineral and the fact that these rocks are extremely common on Earth, suggests the existence of a substantial water reservoir on Mars, according to a team of geoscientists. |
Chaotic electrons heed ‘limit’ in strange metals Posted: 29 Jul 2021 09:20 AM PDT Chaos, to a point: A new study confirms the chaotic behavior of electrons in 'strange' metals has a limit established by the laws of quantum mechanics. |
Scientists observe gas re-accretion in dying galaxies for the first time Posted: 29 Jul 2021 06:52 AM PDT A new study suggests that previously displaced gases can re-accrete onto galaxies, potentially slowing down the process of galaxy death caused by ram pressure stripping, and creating unique structures more resistant to its effects. |
Neanderthal and Denisovan blood groups deciphered Posted: 28 Jul 2021 11:03 AM PDT The blood groups of three Neanderthals one Denisovan have been determined by a team including a palaeoanthropologist, population geneticists, and haematologists. Their research provides new data for understanding the origins, history, and health of these extinct hominin lineages. |
