(Natural News) According to a recent study, the northern glass frog (Hyalinobatrachium fleischmanni) can render itself nearly invisible while asleep by removing almost 90 percent of its red blood cells from circulation and packing them into its liver. The study published December 22 in Science elaborated on this behavior by the amphibian. According to the […]

(Natural News) Humans have been making gold and silver into jewelry, coins and other dazzling items for centuries. People find many of these valuable items from the past every year – and 2022 is no exception.

(Natural News) A hilly landscape in Northern Russia had the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) mystified of its striped patterns. On Feb. 23, the agency posted satellite images of a rock formation near the Markha River in Arctic Siberia. Taken using the Operation Land Imager on the satellite Landsat 8 over many years, the images showed a wrinkled landscape laced […]

(Natural News) Scientists from KU Leuven in Belgium have recently developed a solar panel that converts moisture in the air to produce hydrogen. This allows the solar panels to generate electricity through sunlight and to power heating systems using the resulting hydrogen. Lead investigator Johan Martens of KU Leuven told news outlet VRT NWS that he and […]

(Natural News) Orcas (Orcinus orca) are known for being some of the fiercest predators in the ocean. But unusual video footage taken off the coast of Western Australia showed a pod of orcas freeing a humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) from a rope tangled in its tail. But did the orcas really try to rescue the whale? Fierce killer […]

(Natural News) Over 80 percent of the matter in the universe exists in a form that scientists cannot directly observe. Known as “dark matter,” this mysterious substance cannot be seen or detected by even the most powerful telescopes. Now, a recent study shows what potentially happens to dark matter when it interacts with gravity. Researchers from the Chinese […]

(Natural News) A recent study published in the Royal Society Open Science journal has found that mushrooms can communicate with each other. Scientists even believe they are able to use up to 50 “words.” “[We] found that the ‘fungal language’ exceeds the European languages in morphological complexity,” reads the study, written by Andrew Adamatzky, professor of computer […]

(Natural News) The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has partnered with scientists working on the Breakthrough Listen project in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). The team will use NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) to identify “light-curve anomalies” and detect “technosignatures.” Breakthrough Listen is a $100 million SETI initiative considered as the most comprehensive search for alien […]

(Natural News) A new study has found a massive shock wave that is many times larger than the Milky Way. Abell 3667, situated about 730 million light-years from Earth, is a galaxy cluster that is in turmoil. It is made up of two clusters of galaxies that are actually crashing into each other and about 550 individual galaxies in total that […]

(Natural News) The ability to recall a popular song is exemplified on “name that tune” game shows where contestants have to identify a snippet of music in just a few seconds. But British and Japanese researchers say that humans may actually do better than that: The brain only takes as little as one-tenth of a second to recognize a familiar tune. The […]
