How College Students Really Afford Rent And Groceries Now

Many college students say that rent and basic food costs feel harder to manage than any other part of school. It's not unusual for students to work, budget, and still feel short at the end of the month. This leaves a lot of them unsure of how to cover the gap without taking on too much stress.

Food businesses rely on cold rooms and process chillers to keep products safe from farm to fork. When cooling systems fail or behave unpredictably, the result can be spoilage, recalls, or subtle quality drift that emerges only when products reach consumers.

Cameron Beccario, creator of the global weather visualization site earth.nullschool.net, has created a new company called Nullschool Technologies to support the platform's operation and development as a full-time focus. The one-person company is intended to keep the project small and flexible while adding structure to daily work, with the stated goal of making Earth's weather and climate visible

Small lakes on ancient Mars may have remained liquid for decades, even with average air temperatures well below freezing. Using a climate model adapted for Martian conditions, a team of researchers from Rice University discovered that lakes in locations such as Gale Crater, near Mars' equator, could have persisted under thin seasonal ice for at least decades and likely as long as climate conditi

Peking University, January 2, 2026: A coordinated observation campaign using space- and ground-based telescopes has yielded the first precise mass measurement of a rogue planet, confirming that one long-standing candidate is indeed a planet. Unlike planets in the Solar System, rogue planets travel through space without orbiting a host star.

Paris, France (SPX) Jan 06, 2026
A team using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has identified a new type of astronomical object, a starless gas-rich dark-matter cloud considered a relic of early galaxy formation and nicknamed "Cloud-9." The object is the first confirmed example of a Reionization-Limited H I Cloud, or RELHIC, a neutral hydrogen cloud from the early universe that never formed stars.

Using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope with ground-based observatories, astronomers have traced how Betelgeuse's recently identified companion star, Siwarha, disturbs gas in the red supergiant's extended atmosphere and produces a dense wake of material. The work, led by researchers at the Center for Astrophyphysics | Harvard and Smithsonian (CfA), links this wake to puzzling changes in Betelgeuse's

The sun rotates about once every 28 days, so active regions on its surface are usually visible from Earth for only around two weeks before they move out of view behind the limb. Ioannis Kontogiannis, a solar physicist at ETH Zurich and the Istituto ricerche solari Aldo e Cele Dacco (IRSOL) in Locarno, notes that ESA's Solar Orbiter mission, launched in 2020, has extended this viewing window by o
