Connect the world’s most early data pazes in the world
Left: A sandstone fragment with sandstone fragments is engraved (credit: George Alexis Pantos). Right: Draw a stone and clarify the rune. Credit: Christel Jillmer Connecting the world’s most known runstone fragments in the world may fit like a jigsaw puzzle puzzle and intentionally separated, and various practical and rituals of the early Germanic Runestone. It shines light on the side.…

The first major chunks break away from the world’s largest iceberg
The world’s largest iceberg was almost intact because it drifted through the sea, but scientists have now disconnected 19 km (12 miles). Scientists told AFP on Friday. More than twice the size of London, the giant iceberg, which weighs nearly 1 trillion tons, has been almost the same since it began to move north slowly in 2020. It drifts toward…

Aftershock analysis refutes claims of world’s deepest earthquake
Overview of the study area. Credit: The Seismic Record (2025). DOI: 10.1785/0320240035 The 7.9-magnitude Bonin Islands earthquake series that occurred in May 2015 caused ruptures deep underground near the base of the upper mantle, while record-breaking events in the lower mantle, according to research published in The Seismic Record. Aftershocks that spread to such depths were not included. When Hao…

World’s first research reveals the mystery of marsupial moles living in the desert
Credit: Photo Mike Gillum, from Science Advances (2025). DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.ado4140 Hidden beneath the dunes, a mysterious creature is gliding across the sand. This isn’t one of the giant worms of Arrakis from Frank Herbert’s science fiction epic Dune. Rather, it’s a marsupial mole, a mysterious small mammal found only in the Australian desert. There are two closely related species of…

Stabilized ferrocene molecules create the world’s smallest electrically controlled molecular machine
A complex of ammonium-bound ferrocene (Fc-amm) and crown ether is built on a Cu(111) surface, and its sliding motion is activated by hole injection into the ferrocene group using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). . Credit: Toyowa Yamada / Chiba University Artificial molecular machines are nanoscale machines made up of a few molecules and have the potential to transform fields such…

World’s oldest known wild bird gives birth again at 74 years old
Wisdom (R), a Laysan albatross who is at least 74 years old, is pregnant again. Parenting can be difficult even for the young and energetic, but one elderly albatross is about to experience it again at the ripe (and apparently record-setting) age of 74. Wisdom the Laysan Albatross is one of the millions of giant seabirds that return to Midway…

Earth records second-warmest October on record in 175 years: 2024 on pace to become world’s warmest year on record
Annotated world map plotting the most important climate changes for October 2024. Credit: NOAA Headquarters Earth had another unusually warm month, with October 2024 ranking as the second-warmest October in NOAA’s 175-year global climate record. October will add another mild month to 2024, almost certainly the warmest year on record on Earth, according to scientists at NOAA’s National Center for…
