Colliding dust and the sparks of creation: Carbon-coated grains provide new clue to life's early energy

Two microscopic grains collide and produce a tiny spark. This phenomenon may have provided the energy to kick off life on Earth. But if these solid particles have the same composition, what factor ...

Speeding Up the “Kill Chain”: Pentagon Bombs Thousands of Targets in Iran Using Palantir AI

As the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran continues, we look at how the Pentagon is using artificial intelligence in its operations. The system, known as Project Maven, relies on technology by Palantir and also ...

From dust to planets: Parabolic flight reveal a turbulent path

How does fine dust aggregate into building blocks that ultimately form entire planets like our Earth? A research team led by ...

Slay the Spire 2 is one of the year's biggest hits, which is a good time to remember it abandoned Unity because of the dev fee debacle: 'That is how badly you f****d up'

I had this little itch in my brain when I was looking through the game's credits and saw the Godot logo, and then the reason ...
