megangibson+FollowInterstellar Comet Drama: 310,000-Mile MysteryDid you catch the wild news about comet 3I/ATLAS? This interstellar speedster zipped past the sun, and suddenly, scientists spotted what looked like a 310,000-mile-wide hole! Turns out, it wasn’t a chunk missing from the comet, but a crazy coincidence with solar activity—sunspots were spaced that far apart. Still, the mix-up had everyone buzzing and reminded us just how wild and unpredictable space can be! #Science #space #comet10Share
megangibson+FollowFlesh-eating maggots near Texas border? Here’s what’s upA flesh-eating parasite once wiped out in the U.S. is now just 70 miles from Texas. The New World screwworm, known for burrowing into wounds of people and animals, is spreading north from Mexico. California researchers are sounding the alarm, reminding us how quickly invasive species can disrupt local life and economies. They’re working on new traps that mimic the smell of decaying flesh to catch these pests before they cross the border. Have you ever thought about how climate and animal movement can bring back old threats? Let’s talk about what this means for our communities and pets. #Science #PublicHealth #Texas40Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowBeachy Head Woman’s True Story RevealedRemember all those stories about the Beachy Head Woman being proof of ancient African migration to Britain? Turns out, DNA says nope! New tests show she was actually a local, born and raised on England’s south coast during Roman times. The old skull-shape method got it wrong, and now museums are rethinking her whole story. Wild how one skeleton can rewrite what we thought we knew about British history! #Science #DNA #History71Share
Tamara Jones+FollowYou Won’t Believe How Dangerous Cute Wildlife Can BeEver see a baby deer or fuzzy duckling and want to scoop it up? Turns out, that’s a big no-no! Wildlife experts say the best thing you can do is keep your distance—those adorable babies usually have fiercely protective parents nearby. Getting too close can mean angry animal attacks, orphaned critters, or even a trip to the ER. Next time you spot a wild baby, snap a pic from afar and let nature do its thing! #Science #WildlifeWednesday #NatureLover100Share
megangibson+FollowArctic Deep Sea Has a Secret Oasis?!Scientists just found a wild, thriving oasis 2.5 miles under the Arctic Ocean—where they thought almost nothing could survive! Instead of a barren wasteland, there’s a whole community of weird creatures living around a glowing methane mound. Robots sent down there captured scenes that look more like a sci-fi movie than the frozen Arctic. This changes everything we thought we knew about the deep sea and even how carbon moves through our planet. Nature is seriously full of surprises! #Science #ArcticDiscovery #DeepSea10Share
martinezlaura+FollowDa Vinci’s DNA? Art Meets CSILeonardo da Vinci’s remains have always been a mystery, but now scientists think they’ve found his DNA—hidden in a 500-year-old drawing he might have touched! By swabbing the artwork, they pulled out genetic fragments that could actually belong to the Renaissance genius himself. If true, this could reveal wild new details about his health and ancestry. But with centuries of hands on that paper, is it really him? The debate is on! #Science #LeonardoDaVinci #DNA20Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowMIT’s 3D Metal Breaks Strength RecordsMIT just dropped a game-changer: a 3D-printed aluminum alloy that’s FIVE times stronger than regular aluminum and can handle extreme heat. Imagine lighter, tougher airplane engines, eco-friendly cars, and more energy-efficient tech—all thanks to this wild new metal. The secret? Super tiny patterns inside the alloy, made possible by rapid 3D printing. Could this be the future of sustainable manufacturing? Would you trust a 3D-printed home in a disaster? #Science #MIT #3DPrinting00Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowJupiter’s Red Spot: Is It Disappearing?Jupiter’s iconic Great Red Spot is seriously slimming down! Once a massive storm that could swallow Earth several times over, it’s now shrinking fast, spinning faster, and getting taller—like a cosmic figure skater pulling in their arms. Scientists are scrambling to figure out if we’re witnessing the end of a centuries-old storm or just a wild transformation. If you’ve got a telescope, now’s the time to catch this planetary drama live! #Science #Jupiter #GreatRedSpot11Share
Michelle York+FollowTime Has 3 Dimensions?! Mind BlownImagine if time wasn’t just a straight line, but a whole 3D playground! Some physicists are saying we might have been thinking about time all wrong, and it could actually have three directions—like space. The math gets wild, but this could finally help explain the weirdness of quantum physics and gravity. Picture surfing through time, not just walking forward. It’s a total brain-bender, but if it works, it could change everything we know about the universe. #Science #Physics #TimeTravel70Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowFusion Energy Breakthrough: Heat's Secret PathScientists in Japan just cracked a wild mystery about fusion reactors: heat can actually 'jump' from the core to the edges in a split second, thanks to something called mediator turbulence. This explains why so much energy (and money) was vanishing! By tweaking how they heat the plasma, researchers found a way to keep more energy locked in. If fusion goes mainstream, we could see cleaner, cheaper power in the future. Limitless energy, anyone? #Science #FusionEnergy #CleanTech10Share
