While scientists know for certain that they exist, the purpose they serve continues to baffle them. These blobs are as wide as continents and are as high as Mount Everest. They are found at […]

(Natural News) Given its gelatinous body, a primitive skeleton, and a mouth ringed by 18 tentacles, the fossil of Daihua sanqiong might be mistaken for a sea monster – were it not for its small size.

(Natural News) Swedish researchers found evidence that three solar storms engulfed the Earth during the past 3,000 years. The earlier instances of turbulent space weather dwarfed the ones recorded in history books. If one of those ancient storms took place in modern times, it would devastate electrical and electronic systems. Experts warned that communications, computer-based […]

(Natural News) Russian researchers claim that they developed a “time machine” capable of sending subatomic particles in the opposite direction of time’s arrow. The quantum device is said to transport tiny bits of matter a fraction of a second into the past. Conducted by the Moscow Institute of Physics & Technology (MIPT), the device used […]

(Natural News) The Earth is a world of organizational interdependence. In the hierarchy of life forms, humans rank above animals, and animals rank above plants, and so on. But while evolution has elevated humans a few notches above other organisms, a study on the functional capabilities of plants reveal that they could be just as intelligent, with a […]

(Natural News) Do you ever wonder why it’s so hard to see at night? That’s because humans, as well as some other mammals, can only see specific wavelengths of light called visible light. The visible light that a human’s natural vision can perceive accounts for only a small fraction of the electromagnetic spectrum. In general, humans […]

(Natural News) Do octopuses experience dreams? A viral video of an octopus changing its color during its slumber brought up interesting questions about the neural activity in its many “brains” during sleep periods. Octopuses can alter the color and texture of their skin in the blink of an eye. Sometimes, they rely on their color-changing […]

(Natural News) In Peru, researchers unearthed a 15th-century burial site that held the remains of hundreds of children and juvenile llamas. Both human and animal occupants of the Huanchaquito-Las Llamas site were believed to be victims of a mass sacrifice for an ancient religion. The human remains numbered more than 140 and included both boys […]

(Natural News) It’s the attack of the “clone” spiders! South American researchers discovered enough nearly identical species of spiders in Colombia to fill a new genus, which got named in honor of the iconic stormtroopers from the Star Wars movies. Dubbed Stormtropis, the new genus joins the bald-legged spiders (family Paratropididae). The arachnids flourish throughout […]
