Fishers in Galicia and Asturias push back against an eel-fishing proposal, and the clash blends tradition, science, and a species on the edge
Warm water in the Amundsen Sea is eroding the base of key West Antarctic glaciers, and Thwaites and Pine Island are becoming the ice’s most unsettling thermometer
Archaeologists find a 164-foot underground tunnel in Jerusalem, and the massive build has no clear answer, putting the city under its own history once again
Farmers find an unexpected ally: sheep wool improves olive grove soils and could help them withstand drought without chemicals or major construction
Inside a pressure cooker, a simple experiment shows how steam raises temperature and speeds up beans, and it also explains why that whistle is pure physics
A 286,000-year-old hominin skull found in Petralona Cave in Greece still has no clear identity, and the gap reopens the puzzle of who lived in Europe before Neanderthals
For generations women in southwest Morocco spent up to 4 hours a day hauling five-gallon barrels that weighed nearly 50 pounds, and now giant polymer fog nets mounted above 4,000 feet pull Atlantic mist out of the air and send drinking water to taps about 6.2 miles away
Nuclear blasts can go unnoticed from 1,000 km away, but the loudest sound ever recorded was heard 4,800 km away and circled the planet four times, a physics oddity that still stuns
Berlin opens a 269,000-square-foot pit in the city center and exposes its medieval roots, with archaeologists racing construction crews to save coins, walls, and clues before it is covered again
A 12-year-old bald eagle named Aurora is splashing in a kiddie pool with a pile of toys at a licensed wildlife rehab in Connecticut, and the twist is she is non-releasable after a truck strike and a partial wing amputation in 2024
France just approved France Libre, a 78,000-ton nuclear aircraft carrier projected at about $12 billion, and the catch is it will not enter service until 2038, the same year the current Charles de Gaulle is scheduled to retire
Archaeologists find ceramic urns hidden under a fallen tree in the Amazon, and the unlikely hiding place hints at human stories the forest kept for centuries
Scientists identify a new bat species, Myotis himalaicus, and its “very unique” traits reignite the debate over what we are still missing in mountain ecosystems
A stork swallowed 150 rubber bands and ended up in Doñana, a brutal example of how small everyday trash can become a death sentence for wildlife
Psychology asserts that children of the 1960s and 1970s did not become emotionally strong thanks to better parenting, but because they grew up with enough daily neglect to learn to self-regulate, solve problems on their own, and develop a resilience that modern comforts make difficult to build
An active mine in the Italian Alps becomes a $58 million underground data center, pairing servers with apples and wine in a cooling bet built where ore once came out
A mystical Brazilian city was built on a crystal mountain at about 4,724 feet, and its century-old homes and churches challenge engineering with a secret hidden underfoot
