    • Some severe COVID-19 cases linked to genetic mutations or antibodies that attack the body September 24, 2020
      Two new studies offer an explanation for why COVID-19 cases can be so variable. A subset of patients has mutations in key immunity genes; other patients have auto-antibodies that target the same components of the immune system. Both circumstances could contribute to severe forms of the disease.
    • Comet discovered to have its own northern lights September 21, 2020
      Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko has its own far-ultraviolet aurora, data reveal. It is the first time such electromagnetic emissions in the far-ultraviolet have been documented on a celestial object other than a planet or moon.
    • Ancient volcanoes once boosted ocean carbon, but humans are now far outpacing them September 14, 2020
      A new study of an ancient period that is considered the closest natural analog to the era of modern human carbon emissions has found that massive volcanism sent great waves of carbon into the oceans over thousands of years -- but that nature did not come close to matching what humans are doing today.
    • Possible marker of life spotted on Venus September 14, 2020
      Astronomers have discovered a rare molecule -- phosphine -- in the clouds of Venus. On Earth, this gas is only made industrially or by microbes that thrive in oxygen-free environments. Astronomers have speculated for decades that high clouds on Venus could offer a home for microbes -- floating free of the scorching surface but needing to tolerate very high a […]
    • New Hubble data suggests there is an ingredient missing from current dark matter theories September 10, 2020
      Recent observations have found that something may be missing from the theories of how dark matter behaves. This missing ingredient may explain why researchers have uncovered an unexpected discrepancy between observations of the dark matter concentrations in a sample of massive galaxy clusters and theoretical computer simulations of how dark matter should be […]
    • High-fidelity record of Earth's climate history puts current changes in context September 10, 2020
      Scientists have compiled a continuous, high-fidelity record of variations in Earth's climate extending 66 million years into the past. The record reveals four distinctive climate states, which the researchers dubbed Hothouse, Warmhouse, Coolhouse, and Icehouse. These major climate states persisted for millions and sometimes tens of millions of years, an […]
    • How coronavirus took hold in North America and in Europe September 10, 2020
      Early interventions were effective at stamping out coronavirus infections before they spread, according to a new study. Combining virus genomics with epidemiologic simulations and travel records, the research shows that in both the United States and in Europe, sustained transmission networks became established only after separate introductions of the virus t […]
    • COVID-19 study links strict social distancing to much lower chance of infection September 10, 2020
      Using public transportation, visiting a place of worship, or otherwise traveling from the home is associated with a significantly higher likelihood of testing positive with the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, while practicing strict social distancing is associated with a markedly lower likelihood.
    • Unconscious learning underlies belief in God, study suggests September 9, 2020
      Individuals who can unconsciously predict complex patterns, an ability called implicit pattern learning, are likely to hold stronger beliefs that there is a god who creates patterns of events in the universe, according to neuroscientists.
    • Process that might have led to first organic molecules September 8, 2020
      New research identifies a process that might have been key in producing the first organic molecules on Earth about 4 billion years ago, before the origin of life. The process, which is similar to what might have occurred in some ancient underwater hydrothermal vents, may also have relevance to the search for life elsewhere in the universe.
    • True size of prehistoric mega-shark finally revealed September 3, 2020
      A new study has revealed the size of the legendary giant shark Megalodon, including fins that are as large as an adult human.
    • Has Earth's oxygen rusted the Moon for billions of years? September 2, 2020
      To the surprise of many planetary scientists, the oxidized iron mineral hematite has been discovered at high latitudes on the Moon.
    • A 'bang' in LIGO and Virgo detectors signals most massive gravitational-wave source yet September 2, 2020
      Researchers have detected a signal from what may be the most massive black hole merger yet observed in gravitational waves. The product of the merger is the first clear detection of an 'intermediate-mass' black hole, with a mass between 100 and 1,000 times that of the sun.
    • Europe's largest Solar Telescope GREGOR unveils magnetic details of the Sun September 1, 2020
      GREGOR, the largest solar telescope in Europe, has obtained unprecedented images of the fine-structure of the Sun. Following a major redesign of GREGOR's optics, the Sun can be observed at a higher resolution than before from Europe.
    • Researchers discover a specific brain circuit damaged by social isolation during childhood August 31, 2020
      Researchers have identified specific sub-populations of brain cells in the prefrontal cortex, a key part of the brain that regulates social behavior, that are required for normal sociability in adulthood and are profoundly vulnerable to juvenile social isolation in mice.
    • Genetics of the tree of life August 27, 2020
      Baobab trees can live for more than a thousand years and provide food, livestock fodder, medicinal compounds, and raw materials. Scientists counted the significant tree's chromosomes -- information critical for conservation, agricultural improvement, and further genetic work.

    • Meteorite study suggests Earth may have been wet since it formed August 27, 2020
      A new study finds that Earth's water may have come from materials that were present in the inner solar system at the time the planet formed -- instead of far-reaching comets or asteroids delivering such water. The findings suggest that Earth may have always been wet.
    • Artificial pancreas effectively controls type 1 diabetes in children age 6 and up August 26, 2020
