Reducing the inflammatory activity of macrophages, which support scarring in the heart, could help treat atrial fibrillation (AFib), a new study finds.
In an astonishing revelation, researchers from NASA and Japan’s Osaka University have uncovered data suggesting the rogue planets – those solitary wanderers unhinged from any star – significantly outnumber the approximately hundred billion planets which orbit stars.
The findings indicate that NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, slated for launch by May 2027, could discover as many as 400 rogue planets similar in mass to Earth. A likely candidate for this category has already been singled out from the data.
David Bennett is a senior research scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center and co-author of two papers detailing these findings.
Rocket Lab pulled one of its boosters from the sea after a launch on Monday (July 17), taking another step toward rocket reuse.
The offshore action was part of a mission called “Baby Come Back,” in which an Electron rocket successfully launched seven satellites to orbit from Rocket Lab’s New Zealand site.

We are facing a daunting task. The world will have to feed 10 billion mouths by 2050, but our current methods are unsustainable. Eleven percent of global emissions come from agriculture. Water, land and biodiversity are rapidly declining. And more than 800 million people continue to suffer from hunger.
One of the most exciting technological developments of today is AI. The applications of vertical AI—which is trained to deeply understand a single industry—are limitless. In my earlier career, I harnessed the power of AI for financial markets, then for cancer treatments. In my current work, I think a lot about how AI can help us tackle another complicated behemoth: the food system.
A VERY interesting 6 minutes. People tests? One pill? Next Gen? Hurry, I’m 52! There is an ongoing idea that it will take several kinds of treatments, but many years ago I recall Cynthia Kenyan talking about how some research shows it might come down to a pill.
David Sinclair shares the latest incredible research they are doing.

Back when the Universe was still just a wee baby Universe, there wasn’t a lot going on chemically. There was hydrogen, with some helium, and a few traces of other things. Heavier elements didn’t arrive until stars had formed, lived, and died.
Imagine, therefore, the consternation of scientists when, using the James Webb Space Telescope to peer back into the distant reaches of the Universe, they discovered significant amounts of carbon dust, less than a billion years after the Big Bang.
Adobe releases fresh updates to address an incomplete fix for a critical ColdFusion flaw (CVE-2023–38205).
Apple Inc. is quietly working on artificial intelligence tools that could challenge those of OpenAI Inc., Alphabet Inc.’s Google and others, but the company has yet to devise a clear strategy for releasing the technology to consumers.
