MANILA, Philippines – Bright satellites orbiting close to Earth are increasingly threatening astronomical research, as a new study on Amazon’s internet satellites underscores a wider problem facing scientists worldwide. Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites are designed to sit just a few hundred kilometers above the planet to deliver faster internetContinue Reading
MANILA, Philippines — Scientists are exploring bold ways to cool a rapidly warming planet, even as new research warns that climate change is intensifying risks to water, food, and ecosystems across the globe. A series of newly published studies shows how human-driven warming is reshaping Earth’s systems — from theContinue Reading
Astronomers may have finally solved a long-standing cosmic mystery: how minerals that require extreme heat end up inside comets formed in the coldest reaches of planetary systems. New observations from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope show that crystalline silicates—minerals forged only at very high temperatures—are created near young stars andContinue Reading
Microplastics are everywhere: in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. Scientists have long warned about their potential health risks. Now, a new study suggests their impact may go even further — possibly affecting the health of the next generation. The study shows thatContinue Reading
Particles from Earth’s atmosphere have been drifting into space and landing on the Moon for billions of years, according to a new study that reshapes how scientists understand the long-standing relationship between the two celestial bodies. The research suggests that Earth has been quietly supplying the Moon with gases suchContinue Reading
