Impacts of interstellar dust (ISD) grains on the Ulysses spacecraft allowed for the first successful in situ measurement of ISD (Grün et al. 1993). Long-term measurements of ISD with Ulysses and comparisons with numerical simulations (Landgraf 1998; Sterken et al. 2015) have since revealed previously unknown details of ISD. For example, Krüger et al. (2015) [...]The post Interstellar Dust Measured In Situ by Ulysses appeared first on Astrobiology.

Sexual behavior and sex preference in animals and humans are shaped by complex interactions between the brain and hormones during early development. One critical factor is exposure to androgens (male sex hormones) during fetal development, which influences the sexual differentiation of the brain. This early hormonal exposure is linked to a wide range of adult behaviors, like sexual behavior and cognitive traits, but finding a reliable, noninvasive biological marker for the same has remained a challenge.

Angular momentum is a fundamental quantity in physics that describes the rotational motion of objects. In quantum physics, it encompasses both the intrinsic spin of particles and their orbital motion around a point. These properties are essential for understanding a wide range of systems, from atoms and molecules to complex materials and high-energy particle interactions.

What stands out most about the book I'm carrying under my arm, as I meander through the exhibits at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall in Falmouth, is its awkwardly large size. The Piscatorial Atlas, authored by Ole Theodor Olsen and published in 1883, contains 50 beautifully illustrated charts of the seas around Great Britain. These show the locations exploited at that time for a variety of fish species, alongside the typical vessels or fishing gear used. This information was collated from fishermen in the decade before the atlas was published.

Glow Up Scientists have some exciting news: your brain is likely glowing, whether you can see it or not. The news comes from researchers at the Algoma University in Ontario, who found evidence that the human brain, of all things, posses bioluminescent properties. Essentially, they found that as the brain metabolizes energy, it releases super faint traces of visible light. Called ultra weak photon emissions (UPEs), the flashes of light are emitted when electrons break down and lose momentum, letting go of their protons. As Popular Mechanics notes, UPEs don't technically count as bioluminescence, a chemical process found in organisms like fireflies [...]
