Saturn is back! I woke up at 2:30am for my first Saturn session of the year. A bit of a struggle.

NASA’s Curiosity rover has encountered an extraordinary landscape while climbing through a Martian valley nicknamed “Valle Grande.” Images sent back by the rover show the ground covered with honeycomb-like patterns known as polygonal fractures, each measuring about 1.5 to 3 inches (4 to 8 centimeters) across. Curiosity has seen small clusters of similar geometric shapes…
KRAS mutations are not unique to pancreatic cancer, but they are present in the vast majority of pancreatic tumors. Drugs like daraxonrasib are designed to home in on that defect, binding to the altered protein and blocking the signals that drive uncontrolled growth. In this fluorescence micrograph, pancreatic cancer cells (nuclei in blue) form a…
On July 31, 1971, Apollo 15 astronauts drove on the moon for the first time. David Scott, the commander of Apollo 15, and James Irwin, the lunar module pilot explored the moon for three days by driving around in the Lunar Roving Vehicle. Apollo 15 command module pilot Al Worden remained in orbit around the…
Editor’s Note: Today’s story is the answer to the July Puzzler. Call it an alluvial face-off. On the southern end of Severny Island in the Russian Arctic, rivers rush down from rugged terrain flanking a broad valley. Upon reaching flatter ground, the waters slow and distribute sediment into cone-shaped features called alluvial fans. Several appear in…
A U.S.-based Nigerian scholar and control engineer, Mr Kenechukwu Nwajiaku, alongside his research team, has developed an intelligent robotic control system that bends and twists skeletal fixation plates to fit patients’ jaws or bones precisely. Nwajiaku disclosed this in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos on Saturday. He said…
