Other planets may be home to more diverse life forms than Earth, suggest scientists
The existence of planets orbiting distant stars outside of Earth’s solar system has accelerated the search for life in space. But despite the fact that these planets, called exoplanets, are too far off to explore using current space technologies, scientists think that they might possess a greater potential for life than Earth itself. Stephanie Olson, an astrobiologist […]

Study proposes that the “fight or flight” response is triggered by your bones, NOT adrenaline
In the face of fear and apparent danger, both humans and animals initiate an acute reaction to stress in their bodies. Their breath quickens, their pupils dilate and their hearts begin to pound faster than usual. These programmed changes occur as part of the so-called “fight-or-flight” response.

Undersea eruption creates giant sheet of pumice that has floated across the Pacific Ocean
Undersea eruptions happen more often than people think. These eruptions are thought to shape features of the ocean, such as ridges and rises. Nonetheless, undersea eruptions are a lot less spectacular than their land counterparts, and it isn’t often that people get to see their ramifications on the ocean surface. So much to both sailors and […]
