H.P. Lovecraft is known as the father of the Cosmic Horror genre of fiction. The creator of Cthulhu and many other terrifying dark gods in his novels paints a bleak and decaying view of our world and the Universe. Today we’ll examine what it might imply if that nihilistic and grim view of reality was correct.

The first full-color images from the James Webb Telescope are gorgeous, but they’re also full of substantial science.
Images of galaxy clusters, deep fields, dying stars, birthing stars, and exoplanet spectra electrified the astronomy community Tuesday.
In the event of a nuclear disaster, would you know what to do? If you’re a New York City resident, there’s a YouTube video for that.
The city’s Department of Emergency Management released a public service announcement video outlining the three steps that residents should take in case of a nuclear attack.
The James Webb Space Telescope has the potential to rewrite the history of the cosmos and reshape humanity’s position within it. But first, a lot of things have to work just right.
Mahle claims the motor can run continuously at 90% of its max output, with durability assured by a new integrated oil-cooling technique.
The Sun is expected to explode any day now.
Solar researchers have their eye on a massive sunspot dubbed AR3055, which measures more than 6,100 miles wide. These regions, which appear as dark moles on the surface of the Sun, are concentrations of relatively cooler temperatures caused by a magnetic flux.
“There is an incredible-looking sunspot crossing the center of the solar disk and a new large dark core has just appeared on the limb,” astronomer Apollo Lasky said in a Monday statement published on SpaceWeather.com.

A new discovery from Tel Aviv University may provide a key to a great scientific enigma: How does the awake brain transform sensory input into a conscious experience? The groundbreaking study relied on data collected from electrodes implanted, for medical purposes, deep in the human brain. The information was utilized to examine differences between the response of the cerebral cortex to sounds in sleep vs. wakefulness, at a resolution of single neurons.
Our ability to use mathematical modelling is accelerating breakthrough discoveries in health care and biotechnology.
A new study from the University of Bonn, Germany, has found that brown fat cells produce a molecule that helps burn fat, offering implications for treating obesity.
