Why Kamchatka's giant earthquake sent a smaller tsunami across the Pacific

In 2025, along parts of Kamchatka's coast in Russia, a magnitude 8.8 earthquake caused a tsunami to surge nearly 20 meters (65 feet) above sea level. Yet across the Pacific, its waves were much smaller than those produced ...

Co-design with the community? Study provides insights on building trust

Co-design projects give stakeholders a seat at the table, including them as members of the design team, but few studies have evaluated whether they feel heard. A participant satisfaction study found that how and when people ...

New simulations connect the first stars to cosmic fingerprints still visible today

Researchers have used some of the most detailed simulations yet of the early universe to investigate how the first stars and galaxies formed. Led by researchers at the University of Bath in the U.K., alongside collaborators ...

Dinosaur snacked on seaweed washed up on North American coasts, fossil teeth suggest

Storms routinely wash marine material ashore, providing food for land animals and other organisms. This is known as marine subsidization (MS). Today, MS is particularly common in coastal ecosystems and is especially important ...

Crystal spacing predicts magnetic states in complex alloys better than electron count

In materials chemistry, identifying common parameters that can organize magnetic ground states across complex intermetallic compounds remains a central challenge. Researchers have long used chemically tunable parameters to ...

Beyond temperature: How people experience urban heat

Urban heat is more than a matter of temperature. It can affect how people sleep, work, travel through the city and dress, and even how safe or comfortable they feel in public spaces. Yet these everyday consequences often ...

Alien life? Why the possibility of exoplanet LHS 1140b emitting helium gas is so exciting

This summer, exoplanet science—the study of planets orbiting stars beyond our sun—took a big step forward. Reports of helium gas escaping from the atmosphere of LHS 1140b propelled this exoplanet from the pages of scientific ...

Rethinking liquid hydrogen storage with metal-organic frameworks

Liquid hydrogen (LH₂) is attractive for long-distance energy transport because of its high volumetric energy density. But even well-insulated tanks cannot completely prevent heat from entering. As the liquid warms, hydrogen ...

Physics-grounded AI framework aims to make predictions about new materials more testable

Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used to discover new materials, but conventional data-driven approaches can struggle to explain their predictions, work reliably beyond their training data and remain consistent ...

Under the Microscope: NASA-made material for moon manufacturing

Photos taken using a microscope reveal the colorful, kaleidoscope-like crystal structure of a new NASA-made material that could be used for manufacturing during future space missions. Developed at NASA's Glenn Research Center ...
