Description
Scientists have discovered mysterious "cellular winds" inside living cells — internal airflow-like currents that may explain how aggressive cancers spread, and could become a new target for treatment. Meanwhile, fresh analysis of samples returned from asteroid Bennu reveals a chemically complex world shaped by ancient water activity, offering new clues about how life's building blocks travel through space. Ancient Mars is getting a major reputation upgrade, with new evidence of sustained rainfall suggesting the red planet may have once harbored genuine conditions for life. In evolutionary biology, researchers cracked the secret behind the explosive diversification of hundreds of fish species in Lake Malawi, tracing it to "supergenes" that fast-track adaptation. And deep beneath a Canadian mine, one of the coldest experiments ever built has just hit its operating temperature — and it's hunting for dark matter.
