This post was originally published on here Denisovan remains discovered in southwestern China reveal that Yunnan province’s warm, biodiverse plateau was a “hunting paradise” for the hominins during a global glacial period, according to new research published in the journal Nature. Within the region’s coniferous forests and forest-steppe environments, this archaic human group established a…

Hawaiʻi Community College has secured a new $920,238 National Science Foundation grant to expand education using tools such as drone-mounted sensors to collect data across the state.
This column has covered home gardens before – the process to get proper soil, things we can and can’t grow, the challenges of dry and wet periods (mostly dry), and
A wealthy engineer bet his fortune on a hole in the ground that science said was worthless, and spent three decades proving the experts catastrophically wrong.
A solar farm designed to fight climate change became an unexpected refuge for an endangered owl when scientists discovered that panels cast the perfect shadow for ground-nesting predators to hunt.

This week’s cover of the international journal ‘Science’ features a scene of ‘rotavirus’ invading a cell. Rotavirus is a virus that causes acute gastroenteritis, leading to severe vomiting, watery dia
Researchers have experimentally demonstrated the optical Magnus effect for the first time, revealing that a tightly focused laser interacts most strongly with an atom slightly away from the beam’s center. The unexpected shift is similar to the physics that makes a spinning table tennis ball curve through the air. Because lasers are used to control qubits, the effect could create errors in quantum computers, but it might also provide a new way to couple qubits together.
