Ensuring people are vaccinated against COVID-19 is the most surefire way to save lives in the ongoing global pandemic. Still, vaccine hesitancy is holding up vital immunization efforts, and it's more important than ever to understand its source. According to recent research, a large chunk of this very big problem actually has a very small starting point. In a new study, researchers found the major
Not since Baby Yoda had so many people collectively lost their minds over an impossibly cute Baby Thing. If you're wondering what we're talking about, meet Baby Platypus. This impossibly cute life-form started doing the rounds on social media this week, delighting anybody and everybody who laid eyes on the tiny, delicate bub. There's only one problem, but unlike Baby Platypus, it's a big one: Baby
On April 10, as we humans were struggling through our new normal in a world wracked by a pandemic, a little space probe millions of kilometres away was marking a mission milestone. NASA spacecraft Juno made its 26th perijove, swooping in for a close flyby of Jupiter. From this practically cuddling altitude of 4,200 kilometres (2,600 miles), the spacecraft can take close measurements of our Solar S
Nature is messy. It's often geometric, but also riotous and irregular and asymmetrical. Rarely will you see straight edges or 90-degree angles - so when these things show up in a natural environment, it looks really, really weird. Take this iceberg NASA photographed in Antarctica last week as part of Operation IceBridge. Sitting amid a chaotic jumble of floating ice, it looks perfectly rectangular
One of World's Biggest Drug Companies Just Abandoned Alzheimer's And Parkinson's Research Pfizer, the world's third largest drug maker, has announced it is ending research to discover new medications for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. The move, which will eliminate hundreds of research positions across the pharmaceutical giant's roster, casts an even darker shadow outside the company – dashi
Widespread Loneliness Is Killing People And We Need to Start Taking This Seriously Researchers are warning that loneliness and social isolation is becoming a greater public health threat than the widely discussed problem of obesity. More and more people in the US are living alone, with declining marriage rates and fewer children - and psychologists are warning that the spread of loneliness is incr
Why The Science World Is Freaking Out Over This 25-Year-Old's Answer to Antibiotic Resistance A 25-year-old student has come up with a way to fight drug-resistant superbugs without antibiotics. The new approach has so far only been tested in the lab and on mice, but it could offer a potential solution to antibiotic resistance, which is now getting so bad that the United Nations recently declared i
A 25-year-old has just received a full heart transplant... but not before surviving for more than a year without a human heart inside his body. Instead, Stan Larkin wore an 'artificial heart' in a backpack 24/7 for 555 days, which pumped blood around his body and kept him alive. The success of the procedure suggests that the device could be used to sustain other patients with total heart failure w
William Gadoury, a 15-year-old school student from Quebec, Canada, has found something that's been hidden from archaeologists for centuries - what appears to be a lost city of the Maya civilisation, buried deep in the Yucatan jungle of southeastern Mexico. He didn't do it by hiring a bunch of expensive equipment, hopping on a plane, and slaving away on an excavation site - he discovered the incred
Li-Fi Has Just Been Tested in The Real World, And It's 100 Times Faster Than Wi-Fi Expect to hear a whole lot more about Li-Fi - a wireless technology that transmits high-speed data using visible light communication (VLC) - in the coming months. With scientists achieving speeds of 224 gigabits per second in the lab using Li-Fi earlier this year, the potential for this technology to change everythi
These days we're surrounded by Wi-Fi pretty much everywhere we go, but are we leaving a lot of the potential of this technology untapped? Yes, according to a team of engineers at the University of Washington, who have developed a new system called Power Over Wi-Fi (PoWiFi), which can power devices within a wireless network using the inherent energy of Wi-Fi signals. "For the first time we've shown
It was Galileo himself who first discovered that in a vacuum, if you were to drop two objects from the same height, they'd hit the ground at exactly the same time, regardless of their respective weights. Of course, on Earth, we rarely - if ever - get the change to see this at play, thanks to a phenomenon known as air resistance. The combination of bowling ball and feather is the perfect way to dem
