Farmed Salmon Omega-3: More Out Than In, New Study Finds
A new study using a nutritionally focused metric called neFIFO finds that farmed Atlantic salmon in the Faroe Islands can deliver more edible omega-3 to human plates than the marine ingredients used to raise them — directly challenging aquaculture's fish-in, fish-out reputation.Swift Space Telescope Reentry: NASA’s Rescue Race
NASA estimates a 50 percent chance the Swift space telescope falls uncontrollably by June 2026, so the agency has contracted Arizona startup Katalyst Space Technologies to attempt the first-ever robotic rescue of an unprepared satellite. Losing Swift would sever a two-decade-old gamma-ray burst alert system with no replacement in sight.Aldosterone Drives CKD Progression Beyond Blood Pressure
A large CKD cohort study found that high aldosterone levels independently accelerate kidney disease and raise cardiovascular risk, challenging the assumption that the hormone's harm is merely a byproduct of elevated blood pressure.NASA X-59 Reaches Mach 1.4, Taming the Sonic Boom
NASA's X-59 validated its precision flight profile at Mach 1.4 and 55,000 feet across two June 2025 test flights — the exact conditions required to generate acoustic data that could rewrite a 50-year FAA ban on overland commercial supersonic flight.Dark Stars: Webb May Have Found Stars With Black Holes
James Webb Space Telescope has spotted enigmatic 'little red dots' that scientists propose could be dark stars — hypothetical objects fueled by dark matter annihilation rather than nuclear fusion, potentially harboring black holes at their cores.Tuberculosis Can Spread Before Symptoms Appear, Study Warns
A new study warns that tuberculosis may spread before infected people show any symptoms, exposing a critical gap in public-health surveillance systems that rely on cough and other visible signs to identify infectious patients.Load More
