Healing continues in the atmosphere over the Antarctic: a hole that opens annually in the ozone layer over Earth's southern pole was relatively small in 2024 compared to other years. Scientists with NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) project the ozone layer could fully recover by 2066. During the peak of ozone depletion season from Sept. 7 through Oct. 13,

In the mountainous areas of the western United States, summer heat triggers snowmelt from peaks, sending vital water flows into rivers and reservoirs that supply fresh water to millions of people. In fact, in certain states, snowmelt accounts for up to 75% of the annual water supply. However, with climate change driving warmer winter temperatures, these crucial summer water flows have become inc

Stem cell research conducted aboard the International Space Station (ISS) is revealing promising therapeutic potential that could transform biotherapies for complex diseases, according to two Mayo Clinic scientists. The analysis, led by Fay Abdul Ghani and Dr. Abba Zubair and published in 'NPJ Microgravity', demonstrates how microgravity can enhance the regenerative power of stem cells. Dr. Zuba

In a significant blow to Australia's defence capabilities, the federal government is cancelling what would have been the nation's largest-ever space project: a A$7 billion military satellite communications system. The decision was confirmed in a press statement today. It comes just 18 months after the Albanese government gave the green light to the ambitious program. Defence industry
