New research suggests Mount Etna forms from deep mantle magma pockets, possibly classifying it as a rare “petit-spot” volcano rather than a typical tectonic or hotspot volcano. Mount Etna, located in Sicily, is the most active volcano in Europe. Yet scientists have long struggled to explain how it formed, as no existing geological model fully […]

Why Are Giant Ants Letting Tiny Ants Crawl All Over Them?
Tiny cone ants in Arizona have been seen cleaning much larger harvester ants, even inside their open jaws. The unusual behavior may benefit both species and has never been recorded before. In the deserts of southeastern Arizona, researchers have observed an unusual interaction between two very different ants. Large harvester ants gather outside the nests […]

This Student Recreated the Universe in a Bottle. What She Discovered Could Help Reveal How Life Started on Earth
A study reconstructs the chemical composition of key molecules in stars by analyzing their infrared fingerprints. A PhD student has recreated a small portion of the Universe inside a laboratory setup, producing synthetic cosmic dust and offering new insight into how the chemical ingredients for life may have formed long before Earth existed. Linda Losurdo, […]

Alzheimer’s Symptoms May Start Outside the Brain, Study Finds
Researchers report that certain movement-related symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease may originate in the peripheral nervous system rather than the brain. Researchers at the University of Central Florida say some early movement problems linked to Alzheimer’s may begin outside the brain, raising new questions about where the disease starts and how soon it might be detected.
