Some of the earliest bridges in the world are thought to be four Mycenaean corbel arch structures that may be found close to the Greek villages of Mycenae and Arkadiko. At least two of them have been in use for at least 3,000 years. All of the bridges share a common design and are from the same region of Greece during the Bronze Age, connecting Mycenae, Tiryns, Tolo, and Epidaurus. The earl
The world’s tallest tree, known as Hyperion, is an incredible natural wonder that stands at a height of 379.7 feet. To put that into perspective, it is taller than London’s Big Ben tower, which stands at 315 feet. This majestic tree is a coastal redwood and is located in the Redwood National Park in California. The discovery of Hyperion in 2006 was a significant event for scientists and
A visualization of the eclipse. (NASA's Scientific Visualization Studio/Ernie Wright/YouTube) When the moon gets spooky on Thursday night, don't panic. It's not an omen, it's just an eclipse. Earth will cast its shadow across the moon, turning its surface red as our planet, our moon, and our sun align. That's why total lunar eclipses are sometimes called the " blood moon."
NASA’s Cassini probe is plunging to its death. The nuclear-powered spacecraft has orbited Saturn for 13 years, and sent back hundreds of thousands of images. The photos include close-ups of the gaseous giant, its famous rings, and its enigmatic moons – including Titan, which has its own atmosphere, and icy Enceladus, which has a subsurface ocean that could conceivably harbour microbial life.

Researchers at Japan’s RIKEN Centre for Emergent Matter Science have unveiled a groundbreaking biodegradable plastic that could offer a solution to the plastic pollution crisis. Unlike traditional plastics, this new material dissolves in seawater within hours and degrades in soil within days, enriching it with essential nutrients. A Sustainable Alternative to Traditional Plastics Traditional
