    • Fig trees may benefit climate by turning carbon dioxide into stone
      Some carbon dioxide absorbed by fig trees gets turned into calcium carbonate within the wood and the surrounding soil, ensuring that the carbon is kept out of the air for longer
    • Ancient mass extinction shows how Earth turned into a super-greenhouse
      A study of fossils from the Permian-Triassic extinction event 252 million years ago shows that forests in many parts of the world were wiped out, disrupting the carbon cycle and ensuring that Earth remained hot for millions of years
    • Cyberattacks could exploit home solar panels to disrupt power grids
      The growth of domestic solar installations opens the possibility of hackers targeting their smart inverter devices as a way to cause widespread power-system failures
    • We finally understand why quasicrystals can exist
      Not quite crystals and not quite a glass, quasicrystals are an oddity whose properties are not well understood – but now we know how they can remain stable
    • Quantum-enhanced supercomputers are starting to do chemistry
      Working in tandem, a quantum computer and a supercomputer modelled the behaviour of several molecules, paving the way for useful applications in chemistry and pharmaceutical research

    • Math’s Block-Stacking Problem Has a Preposterous Solution

      In principle, this impossible math allows for a glue-free bridge of stacked blocks that can stretch across the Grand Canyon—and into infinity

    • Climate Change’s Fingerprints Came Early, a Thought Experiment Reveals

      Climate change left its signature on the atmosphere early in the industrial revolution, reveals a thought experiment investigation

    • Workers Have Died in Extreme Heat as OSHA Has Debated Protections

      The June heat dome contributed to the deaths of at least three people. They have died as federal regulators have weighed whether to finalize the nation’s first heat protection rule for workers

    • Human Gut Bacteria Can Gather Up PFAS ‘Forever Chemicals’

      When tested on their own and in mice, these bacterial strains from the human microbiome show promise in accumulating PFAS

    • Can Life Survive the Death of the Sun?

      The future is bright—too bright—for life as we know it once the sun transforms into a red giant star

    • A third visitor from another star is hurtling through the solar system
      Scientists have found a new interstellar object whizzing toward the sun.
    • Nearly half of the universe’s ordinary matter was uncharted, until now
      Two studies fill in gaps about the cosmos’s ordinary matter. One maps it all, even the “missing matter.” The other details one of its hiding spots.
    • Climate change could separate vanilla plants and their pollinators
      The vanilla species grown for its flavoring is finicky. Genes from its wild relatives could help make it hardier — but not if those cousins go extinct.
    • Vaccine policy in the U.S. is entering uncharted territory
      A key advisory group vows to base decisions on evidence, boost confidence in vaccines and protect health. Experts fear the opposite is happening.
    • A 3-D printed, plastic beaker could help algae grow on Mars
      Algae grown under Mars-like conditions could make bioplastic building materials for structures to harbor life in space.
