Engineers discovered that falling rainwater can unexpectedly reverse airflow deep underground, solving a mystery with important implications for mine safety. Operating a facility deep underground means constantly managing two essential challenges: air and water. Fresh air must circulate through tunnels and shafts to keep people safe, while groundwater from rainfall and underground aquifers has to […]
Scientists Discover the First-Ever Molecules Preserved Inside a 113-Million-Year-Old Pterosaur Fossil
Ancient microbes may have helped preserve a pterosaur fossil and its chemical clues for more than 100 million years. An international study led by Curtin University has shed new light on how a prehistoric flying reptile fossil remained exceptionally well preserved for 113 million years, offering scientists a rare view into a long-vanished world. The […]

Scientists Just Found a Smiling “Happy-Face” Spider in the Himalayas
For more than a century, scientists believed this cheerful-looking creature lived only in the Hawaiian Islands. Small, brightly colored, and marked with a vivid red smile on its back, the Happy Face spider is one of the world’s most recognizable arachnids. For more than 100 years, this cheerful-looking spider was believed to live only in […]
Scientists Discover Wild Orangutans May Be Treating Themselves With Medicinal Plants
Orangutans may use specific plants for benefits beyond ordinary nutrition. For centuries, humans have relied on the medicinal properties of plants. Now, growing evidence suggests we may not be the only species that knows how to use nature’s pharmacy. A 20-year study of wild orangutans in Indonesian Borneo found that the great apes selectively consumed […]
