Starship 13 Full Cinematic Mission

The US Department of Energy (DOE) has awarded Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) funding to lead a broad portfolio of research projects meant to speed up scientific discovery across energy, weather forecasting, quantum technologies and cybersecurity. The initiatives are part of the DOE’s new Genesis Mission, a national effort aimed at building what the agency describes…

Alpine glaciers, wild coastlines, temperate rainforests, and deep river valleys coexist on the Olympic Peninsula in the northwest corner of Washington state. Surrounded by blue waters, peaceful islands, and bustling population centers, its rugged interior remains a relatively remote bastion of wilderness. The Olympic Mountains’ imposing terrain comes into focus in this oblique view of…

New research this week seems to throw cold water on the Wim Hof method, an endurance training technique that intentionally exposes people to frigid temperatures. The study, a review of the scientific literature, did find some evidence that the method could have anti-inflammatory properties, but did not find strong data supporting any other supposed benefits,…

A new AI model has become so good at predicting how molecules evolve over time that, in the future, it could speed up the costly and time-consuming process of testing new drugs. In the long term, this technology could facilitate the development of medicines and new treatments, as promising drug candidates are able to be identified more quickly and with…

Titan in ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths, as captured by the Cassini probe in 2004 NASA/JPL/Space Science Institute A strange substance is hiding on the surfaces of both Pluto and Saturn’s moon Titan, and researchers aren’t sure what it is. Titan’s thick atmosphere means it is extremely difficult to study its surface, so identifying this compound…

Wide-ranging research suggests that as temperatures increase, some creatures pick fights while others struggle to learn. The findings hint at consequences that may ripple through ecosystems Marta Zaraska, Knowable Magazine June 5, 2026 A swan swims on the Scharmützelsee at sunrise on July 2, 2025, when temperatures in the nearby German cities of Berlin and Brandenberg…
