Jesus Christ! No farewell tour for the E Street Band! Farewell to what? A thousand people screaming your name? Get the hell out. I ain’t going anywhere!” Get Bruce Springsteen…

NIST researcher Elizabeth Strychalski’s research group is helping to establish the measurements and standards needed for progress in engineering biology, also known as synthetic biology. Credit: J.

Such synthetic (or “engineered”) cells would behave similarly to the ones in our bodies, though they would also have built-in safeguards that ensure safety and ethics. By studying them, we could transform our understanding of the rules of life. They could also be used to manipulate living organisms and…
Have we become allergic to or intolerant of romance outside of its own genre? Why are movies kissing romance goodbye? I assumed that, in a Post-Pandemic world, we’d be more open or acceptant of romantic dynamics and physical touch in media, not aggressively averse. The lockdown touch starvation was a real thing.

Antarctica’s Thwaites Glacier got its nickname the “Doomsday Glacier” for its potential to flood coastlines around the world if it collapsed. It is already contributing about 4% of annual sea-level rise as it loses ice, and one theory suggests the glacier could soon begin to collapse into the ocean like a row of dominoes.But is that kind of rapid collapse really as likely as feared? A new study of Thwaites Glacier’s susceptibility to what’s known as marine ice cliff instability offers some hope. But the findings don’t mean Thwaites is stable.Polar scientist Mathieu Morlighem, who led the study, explains the…

The interior of the monument in Spain known as the Menga dolmenMiguel Ángel Blanco de la Rubia Neolithic people seem to have understood sophisticated concepts in science, such as physics and geology, using this knowledge to construct a megalithic monument in southern Spain.

Its roofed enclosure was constructed from 32 large stones, some of which are the biggest used in such structures.
