This time of year, temperatures in the region can drop to-40 degrees Fahrenheit.
The viral story of a Russian passenger plane of Polar Airlines Antonov AN-24 landing on a frozen river has now become an icy reality.
Unlike older methods that use things foreign to our bodies, this one doesn’t trigger our immune system and employs small molecules to interact with RNA.
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine have developed a breakthrough technology to regulate gene expression in gene therapy, addressing the crucial issue of maintaining therapeutic gene levels within a safe range.
This is important because having too much or too little of a gene’s activity within a therapeutic window can cause problems. Their method uses tiny substances in amounts approved by the FDA to control the genes.

The secure quantum communication covered a distance of about 4,000 kilometers using China’s quantum satellite Mozi.
Scientists in Russia and China have established quantum communication encrypted with the help of secure keys transmitted by China’s quantum satellite, reports SCMP.
An extensive luxurious facility for a billionaire is no surprise, but the secrecy around the project raises many questions.
The facility is more than a personal getaway for the Zuckerbergs hosting office and conferencing facilities and an industrial-scale kitchen.

In our new paper, we’ve investigated how quantum particles could move in a complex structure like the brain, but in a lab setting. If our findings can one day be compared with activity measured in the brain, we may come one step closer to validating or dismissing Penrose and Hameroff’s controversial theory.

Square Enix is using AI to increase productivity.
“In the short term, our goal will be to enhance our development productivity and achieve greater sophistication in our marketing efforts,” Kiryu continuted. “In the longer term, we hope to leverage those technologies to create new forms of content for consumers, as we believe that technological innovation represents business opportunities.”
On the publishing front, Kiryu reveals the company wants to “enable greater global collaboration and to promote the shift to digital.” The team hopes this will allow them to not only gives them the chance to “maximize our sales of new titles, but also to deliver our rich back catalog to more customers and in turn to expand the fan base for our Group’s intellectual properties (IPs).”

Earth will be struck today by a coronal mass ejection from a huge solar flare that erupted from the sun on New Year’s Eve.
The New Year’s Eve flare created a CME, a huge bubble of plasma from a region of the sun called the corona, which is equivalent to the sun’s outer atmosphere, and this has an Earth-directed component. Though this massive ejection of plasma will only graze the magnetic bubble surrounding our planet Tuesday (Jan. 2), the magnetosphere, it could trigger a geomagnetic storm that could affect communications and power infrastructure.
The coronal mass ejection CME was hurled into space by an X-class solar flare that burst from the surface of the sun at 4:55 p.m. EST (2155 GMT) on Sunday (Dec. 31). It is the most powerful flare that has happened on the sun during the current solar cycle, solar cycle 25, which began in Dec. 2019. In fact, the flare that ended 2023 with a bang is the largest that has been observed since Sept. 10, 2017, according to the Space Weather Prediction Center of the National Oceanic And Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
