Infrared spectroscopy with machine learning detects early wood coating degradation
Improve the sustainability of wooden buildings. Credit: (Kyoto/Whitney Havel) From Japanese cypress to ponderosa pine, wood has been used in construction for thousands of years. Materials such as steel and concrete have taken over the construction of large-scale buildings, but timber has been revived and is increasingly being used in public and multiple buildings due to environmental benefits. Of course,…

Webb Telescope sees galaxies that clear the mysterious mists of the early universe
goods-s field.credit: jades-gs-z13-1 in esa/web, NASA, STSCI, CSA, Jades collaborations Astronomers have identified bright hydrogen emissions from galaxies in the very early universe. The surprising discovery is that researchers will challenge themselves to explain how this light pierced a thick mist of neutral hydrogen that filled the space at that time. The key goal of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webbspace Telescope…

Saturday Quote: A confused discovery from Webb. Early human faces. Humans and dogs like to cool them down together
The left midface fossils of humanity from 1.1 million to 1.4 million years ago have recovered from the site of Sima del Elephante in simulations of Sierra de Atapuerc, Burgos, Spain, and the opposite mirror. Credits: Maria D. Guillen/Iphes-Cerca, Elena Santos/Cenieh This week we reported a difficult experience of humans trying to read dog emotions. Researchers reported that male blue-lined…

Analysis finds defects in the “Protura sister” hypothesis: reassessment of early hexapole lines
Embryology and morphology cannot establish the “Protura sister” hypothesis of the early evolution of hexapoders recently proposed by phylogenies. Credit: Makiko Fukui Early lineages of hexagons (widely defined insects) have been debated for a long time. Researchers and collaborators from Tsukuba University have critically investigated the newly proposed phylogenetic hypothesis of the “Protura sisters.” This analysis revealed the underlying flaws…

New analysis of asteroid dust reveals evidence of salt water in the early solar system.
In October 2020, a bans -size robot spacecraft temporarily touched the surface of Benne, a 525 -meter planet, 32 million kilometers from the earth. As part of NASA’s OSIRIS-REX mission, spacecraft not only spent two years of imaging as an planet, but also collected valuable samples of dust and small rocks from the poor surface of Bennu. In September 2023,…

The first supernova filled the early universe with water, research suggests
This artist’s impression shows CR7, a very distant galaxy discovered using ESO’s Very Large Telescope. Credit: ESO/M.Kornmesser Water is the essence of life. All living things on earth contain water within them. The Earth has an abundance of water, so life is abundant. This fundamental connection between water and life is partly due to the extraordinary properties of water, but…

Fossil discovery sheds light on the early evolution of animal nervous systems
An incomplete tubular specimen of the Eopliaprites sphinx excavated from the Quang Tuanh Formation of the Early Cambrian. The ventral nerve cord is shown. Credit: Science Advances (2025). DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adr0896 An international team of scientists has solved a fascinating piece of the evolutionary puzzle. That’s how the ventral nerve cord, a key component of the central nervous system, evolved in…

Discovery of distant blazars supports rapid black hole formation in the early universe
Artist’s impression of a bright, very early active galactic nucleus discovered by Bañados and his colleagues. This has fundamental implications for the growth of black holes during the first billions of years of cosmic history. Credit: NSF/AUI/NSF NRAO/B. Saxton Astronomers have discovered a key piece of the puzzle of how supermassive black holes were able to grow so quickly in…
