Earth's Moon is tiny compared to our planet itself, but it's big enough that our efforts to explore it have really only scratched the surface. Once thought to be little more than a pale, dusty, crater-covered rock, researchers have gradually revealed that the Moon is actually a pretty special place. Water, which isn't something we ever associated with the Moon, may actually be abundant, though it's likely locked away as ice in the lunar soil called regolith. Now, as part of NASA's Artemis program which will see humans return to the Moon in the years to come, the space ...

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders inserted himself into the debate about NASA's Artemis Program on Monday.

The independent and two-time presidential candidate did so by submitting an amendment to the Endless Frontier Act, which is now under consideration by the full Senate. Sanders' amendment, No. 1925, has a simple purpose, "To eliminate the multi-billion dollar Bezos Bailout."

The "bailout" in question refers to an earlier amendment ...

Kraft Heinz, one of the largest food and beverage companies in the world, issued a voluntary recall last week that impacts approximately 13,500 pounds of a frozen soup product due to a labeling error.

An open notebook with nothing written in it.

Over the past decade, it became apparent that a number of fields of research had some issues with replication. Published results didn't always survive attempts at repeating experiments. The extent of the problem was a matter of debate, so a number of reproducibility projects formed to provide hard numbers. And the results were not great, with most finding that only about half of published studies could be repeated.

These reproducibility projects should have served a couple of purposes. They emphasize the importance of ensuring that results replicate to ...

The service evolved considerably since its inception, and it's still the dominant player in the industry. Chrome can be pretty annoying, especially when it comes to resource use and Google's user tracking technologies, but no other browser has knocked it off of its throne.

According to a report by The Washington Post, health experts in China say that protection from the vaccines may not last after six months and that people who are at high risk of COVID-19 should get a third dose. Now, state-run media outlets suggest Beijing is on board with the suggestion and is ...

After three weeks of wide-ranging (and often meandering) witness testimony and questioning, today's closing arguments in the Epic Games Inc. v.

For Epic, the market in question in this case is simply the market ...

During an excavation in Istanbul's historic Haydarpaşa train station, archaeologists discovered a semicircular apse—a structure commonly associated with ancient churches—dating to the 3rd century B.C.E. It is the latest find at the site of the ancient port city of Chalcedon by a team led by archaeologist Mehmet Ali Polat. According to the Turkish publication Hurriyet Daily News, which first reported the news, it may be the oldest building excavated at the site so far.

While archaeologists are still unsure of the newly discovered apse's specific function, they believe the area would have been sacred. In ancient architecture, an ...

Honestly, there's reason to be excited. The successful "spaceflight" means that Virgin's Unity rocket is viable, scrubbing reports of unreliability after prior flights were canceled.

Military conflicts are expensive in many ways. They not only cost a lot in terms of money and resources, but they also often cost many lives. No country wants to send its citizens to fight and die, which is why technology like drones has become so appealing to the world's superpowers. Russia is in the midst of a number of ongoing conflicts that require the threat of — and in some cases the application of — some measure of military force. Russia's defense minister, Sergei Shoigu, is the man tasked with managing those conflicts, and rather than imagining what ...

The most interesting thing about the limits on outrageous behavior from Republican congresspeople is that there are none.

Sure, Marjorie Taylor Greene's comparison of mask regulations to the Holocaust has resulted in a few more voices calling for her ouster from the House of Representatives. But seriously, if her claim that space lasers that identify as Jewish started wildfires in the Pacific Northwest, her advocacy for the execution of Democrats, her childish harassment of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, and claiming the Parkland, Florida, school shooting was staged didn't get the job done, is this current ruckus likely to?

In the early '90s, the professional bull-riding community was captivated by a 1,896-pound yellow bull named Bodacious.

He was known throughout the rodeo sport as "the world's most dangerous bull." He's still considered "the greatest bull ever to buck."

Bodacious had a unique move: bucking to get riders leaning forward and then snapping back his head, intent on a violent collision with his human rider.

Over the course of his career, 135 cowboys tried to ride Bodacious, but only six managed to stay on his back for the full eight seconds.

Sometimes less is more—at least that's how we feel about glue guns. Granted, some heavy-duty jobs require a big-barreled model, but when it comes to detail work and smaller crafts, mini hot glue guns are our go-to. These devices are inexpensive, light, and for the most part easy to reload: Just be sure to buy 5/16-inch-diameter glue sticks rather than the standard 7/16-inch. Here are the five best small glue guns money can buy.

Tivoli Outdoor Ad - Take the bus to the most fun park in town

It's very unique for a theme park to be located in the center of a major city. And since that's the case in Copenhagen, we used full foil on bus line 37 that passes by Tivoli. And in that way reminded people in Copenhagen how boring everyday life quickly can turn into joy and happiness.

May 8th. 76 years ago our grandads and grandmas finally won the fight against Nazism in Europe. Looking at what's going on in our Central European region, it's more important now than ever before to remember the fight of our grandparents. The ideals and values they fought for and the price they had to pay. Post Bellum commemorates this Day and all its heroes with this emotional one minute film. Film about a personal celebration with a simple but strong gesture.

Today the Moon is still in Scorpio, lifting the veil to our deepest thoughts and emotions. The Scorpio Moon is intensely creative for that reason, and while it may not be all that comfortable (especially later in the day when it sets off the Saturn/Uranus square creating some disruption), today is packed with potential for self-revelation and the power to create change. Often we surround ourselves with clouds of hopes and fears, failing to recognize the truth of the power which we ourselves hold. The name of this painting is "Goddess of Sight and Heavenly ...

What year, again, does Mr. Fusion show up to compete with Tesla et al?

That skepticism is understandable when a new battery design promises a revolution, but it risks missing the fact that batteries have gotten better. Lithium-ion batteries have reigned for a while now—that's true. But "lithium-ion" is a categoryof batteries that ...

I'm a 40-year-old woman with four children. Having a big family has always appealed to me. In my mid-20s, way ahead of my peers, I was married and expecting my first child. Having a child was life-affirming, though I hadn't anticipated how draining and exhausting motherhood would be.

It was only after my adult ADHD diagnosis that many aspects and difficulties of my life, motherhood, and beyond began to "click." I suddenly had a greater understanding of my thought patterns, lifestyle choices and, most importantly, my brain.

After my diagnosis, I joined several Facebook groups for women with ADHD, and started ...

I feel that.

We all start out the day fresh and ready to be positive, proactive, and empathic with whatever challenges our children are facing. When we're rested, we typically have the patience to respond calmly when they are reactive or having a ...

Hospital-level care at home — some of it provided over the internet — is poised to grow after more than a decade as a niche offering, boosted both by hospitals eager to ease overcrowding during the pandemic and growing interest by insurers who want to slow health care spending. But a host of challenges remain, from deciding how much to pay for such services ...

It can manifest as one partner suddenly expressing an urge to break free or engaging in reckless behaviors. It can be erratic and unpredictable. It can see you responding to ambiguous social cues, or sending them out yourself.
