A shorter daily eating window was linked to improved eating habits, with no clear advantage in measured appetite hormones or inflammation markers. Time-restricted eating asks people to fit their meals into the same eight- to 10-hour window each day. Because people may also eat less on that schedule, researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine set out […]
NASA, SpaceX Crew-13 Could Reach the Space Station in Less Than 9 Hours
NASA and SpaceX are nearing launch of Crew-13, a four-person mission that could reach the International Space Station in less than nine hours. NASA and SpaceX are targeting 11:10 a.m. EDT on Thursday, October 1, as the earliest opportunity to launch the Crew-13 mission to the International Space Station. Before liftoff, teams will complete final […]

Could Advanced Aliens Be Living Nearby? Scientists Say It’s Unlikely
Even planets billions of years older than Earth may host only microbes if photosynthesis supplies too little energy. Science fiction often imagines Earth’s galactic neighborhood teeming with hyper-advanced extraterrestrial civilizations, but the actual cosmos near us may be far quieter. A study published in the International Journal of Astrobiology, led by Chris Doughty, a professor […]
A Disturbing New Kind of Coral Pollution Is Forming on Japan’s Beaches
‘Plasticorals,’ pieces of coral rubble fused with plastic, are lasting signs of human activity and may pose a threat to marine ecosystems. While widely manufactured materials like cement and steel degrade over millennia, plastic remains intact long enough that future geologists will likely identify the period from the 1950s onward as a distinct synthetic layer […]

Arctic Landslide Triggers 1,580-Foot Tsunami in Alaska
As glaciers retreat, steep Arctic fjords may face rising landslide-tsunami risks that could be reduced through better monitoring and faster warnings. On the evening of August 9, 2025, passengers aboard the Hanse Explorer had just finished photographing and filming South Sawyer Glacier before the vessel began its trip back through the fjord. About 12 hours […]
A Simple Pill Could Treat Diabetic Eye Damage Before Vision Is Lost
By targeting the retina’s protective barrier, oral Danegaptide could help treat diabetic eye damage earlier, though its lasting benefits remain to be tested. For millions of people with diabetes, treating vision-threatening eye damage means waiting until vision loss has already begun, at which point doctors must deliver regular anti-VEGF injections directly into the eye. These […]
