If you’ve ever looked at your dog curled up on the couch and thought, “Please stay forever,” you’re not alone. The good news is that there are simple, everyday choices that really can stretch out the time you have together. You don’t need fancy supplements or expensive gadgets; most of what protects your dog’s ...
If you could zoom in far beyond what any microscope can see, you’d find a world that behaves nothing like the everyday life you know. In this strange quantum realm, particles can be in two places at once, objects can tunnel through barriers, and the simple act of looking at something can change what ...
We have telescopes that can stare almost to the edge of the observable universe, detectors that can hear black holes collide, and spacecraft drifting into interstellar space. Yet if you close your eyes right now and notice what it feels like to be you, you’ve just encountered something even more baffling than a black ...
In 2025, American scientific research experienced sweeping disruptions under President Donald Trump’s second term, prompting alarm among researchers who say fundamental pillars of the nation’s scientific enterprise are being dismantled. Federal support for research in fields ranging from public health to environmental science has been slashed, with funding freezes, grant cancellations, and policy shifts eroding ...
