 Saturn has its famous hexagon, and  Jupiter has just now been caught throwing mad shapes too.
High up in its atmosphere, astronomers have identified strange, glowing new features, in the region above the tempestuous Great Red Spot.



					
			

There, in the ionosphere, concentrations of ionized hydrogen cause a near-infrared glow in arcs, bands, and spots that suggest the wild planet is far wilder than we even suspected.
"We thought this region, perhaps naively, would be really boring," says planetary scientist Henrik Melin of the University of Leicester in the UK. "It is in fact just as interesting as the northern lights, if...

For some planets, the meteorite bombardment just never stops.
New analysis of data collected by a seismometer on  Mars has revealed that space rocks slam into the red planet far more frequently than we ever suspected.



					
			

In fact, it seems Mars is copping an absolute thrashing. Based on the number of nearby impact-related tremors detected by the Mars InSight lander during its tenure, a team of scientists has estimated that Mars experiences almost daily impacts from rocks the size of a basketball smashing into its surface.
"This rate was about five times higher than the number estimated from orbital imagery alone," says...

Every now and again, serendipity gives us a unique window into times long past.
An explosive volcanic eruption that took place in prehistory is one of them. As the ash from a pyroclastic flow during the Cambrian age was dumped on a shallow marine environment, its population of ancient arthropods called trilobites were preserved almost instantly – including any soft tissues that are normally degraded or destroyed during other fossilization processes.



					
			

Now, hundreds of millions of years later, those unfortunate animals have given us an unprecedented record of their three-dimensional anatomy, along with any smaller creatures that happened to be clinging to...

Acetaminophen, also known as paracetamol and sold widely under the brand names Tylenol and Panadol, may also increase risk-taking, according to a study from 2020 that measured changes in people's behavior when under the influence of the common over-the-counter medication.

Most of us who engage in heavy alcohol use do so to self-medicate. And we self-medicate because we don’t know how to feel, process, and sit with our uncomfortable emotions. There are many ways to avoid uncomfortable feelings; heavy alcohol use is just one way (among many) to numb out, avoid, or escape. A lot of us who have abused alcohol, myself included, do so to regulate our emotions, or we think we are regulating our emotions through self-medication.

Clutter doesn’t just make your home look icky and run less efficiently, I will point out the specific reasons why clutter can cause mental anxiety and stress. Clutter to me is a visual explosion, it is loud and very distracting. I cannot focus in a cluttered environment whether in a home, a store, or any venue. This may be why I detest crowds and I avoid shopping in large brick-and-mortar stores.

Ongoing US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) testing of a 'microdose' psychedelic candy linked to dozens of illnesses across 20 states has identified several of the product's compounds as possible causes of the symptoms.



					
			

While none of the listed chemicals conclusively solve the medical mystery, the results reflect the poor state of regulation of a market responding to a rapidly growing interest in psychedelics for health and recreation.
Earlier this month, the FDA in collaboration with America's Poison Centers announced its investigation of eight reported illnesses linked with the consumption of Diamond Shruumz-brand Microdosing Chocolate Bars.
As of this week, that number stands...

When it comes to how we experience, interact with, and navigate our world, timing is everything. And new research in mice suggests a specific set of cells is fundamental to the way we learn complex behaviors that rely on timing.



					
			

The discovery by a team at the University of Utah in the US could eventually help detect onset of neurodegenerative diseases that affect time perception, like  Alzheimer's.
To create a memory for your own personal archives, your brain must encode the timing and sequence of events as you're experiencing them. It creates this timeline using circuits in the medial temporal lobe...

'Time Cells' in The Brain Could Be More Crucial Than We Ever Realized


We're still not sure exactly what causes Alzheimer's disease, but we know what its effects look like, and we're getting better at detecting the early signs of it – including, perhaps, those in our speech.



					
			

Scientists from Boston University have developed a new AI ( artificial intelligence) algorithm that analyzes the speech patterns of those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). It can predict a progression from MCI to  Alzheimer's within six years with an accuracy of 78.5 percent.
The study continues the team's previous research, where they trained a model – using voice recordings from over 1,000 individuals – to accurately...
