Doctors Thought These Children Had No Hope. An Experimental Therapy Changed Everything
For families facing a diagnosis of an aggressive childhood brain tumor, hope has often been in short supply. Diseases such as diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) have long been considered among the deadliest pediatric cancers, with survival often measured in months despite surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Even after enduring multiple rounds of treatment, many young…
New York Just Became the First State to Halt Data Center Construction
Behind every AI search, cloud service and digital tool is a physical building filled with servers that consume enormous amounts of electricity and water. As companies race to build more of these facilities, New York has become the first state to impose a statewide pause on new hyperscale data centers. The move is not a…
New Alzheimer’s Drug Is Being Tested to See If It Can Prevent Dementia Early
You feel fine. Your memory is sharp. You can recall names, appointments, the thread of a conversation without effort.

That…
A Cancer Researcher Received a Terminal Diagnosis and Tried Something No One Had Done Before
A seizure during a medical conference changed Professor Richard Scolyer’s life in an instant. The renowned cancer researcher soon learned that he had glioblastoma, one of the most aggressive and difficult-to-treat brain cancers, and was initially told he might have only months to live. Faced with a disease that had resisted decades of medical progress,…
Scientist Creates Solar Device That Pulls 270 Gallons of Drinking Water From Thin Air Every Day
In many parts of the world, finding clean drinking water has become an increasingly difficult challenge. Communities living through prolonged droughts often rely on expensive deliveries, groundwater that is rapidly disappearing, or large desalination plants that require enormous amounts of energy to operate. As climate change continues to intensify water shortages across multiple continents, researchers…
Scientists Just Found a Sugar Drifting Through Deep Space, and It Could Rewrite the Story of Life
For decades, scientists have searched the universe for clues that might explain one of humanity’s oldest questions: how did life begin? Their hunt has uncovered water trapped inside distant asteroids, organic molecules scattered across galaxies, and even ingredients used to build DNA. Now, astronomers have added another remarkable piece to that growing puzzle after detecting…
Scientists Just Watched the Seafloor Split Apart and Create New Ocean Crust
Most of Earth’s surface was created in a place no human can easily reach: the dark, crushing depths of the ocean. Scientists have long known that tectonic plates pull apart there, allowing magma to rise and harden into new crust. Yet the crucial moment had remained largely hidden, reconstructed only from the evidence left behind.…
Policy Advocate Russ Greene: “Every Dollar We Spend on Senior Citizens Could Have Gone Somewhere Else.”
For generations, Social Security has been treated as a promise: work, contribute and receive support in retirement. Russ Greene’s blunt claim that every dollar spent on seniors could have gone elsewhere challenges that promise in a deeply personal way. Behind the controversy lies a growing conflict over who should carry the cost of an aging…
What’s Actually True About In-N-Out, Lynsi Snyder, and Those Bible Verses
For decades, the smallest detail on an In-N-Out order was also the easiest to miss. Tucked beneath a soda cup, printed in tiny type at the edge of a burger wrapper, sat a string of numbers: a book, a chapter, a verse. Most customers, occupied with a Double-Double and a paper boat of fries, never…
Trump Shrinks Two Utah National Monuments Sacred to Tribes by About 90% Each
With a signature on Monday, President Donald Trump erased protections from an expanse of southern Utah nearly the size of Connecticut. Standing at a White House signing event, flanked by Utah’s Republican governor, Trump approved proclamations shrinking two of the country’s best-known national monuments, Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante, by roughly 90% each. Together the…
