Massive ‘Lava Lamp’ Blobs Deep Inside Earth Have Scientists Puzzled
Two continent-size blobs of hot — and possibly molten — rock can be found deep underground, about halfway to the center of the Earth, according to a new study. These curious structures — each of which is so large that it would be 100 times taller than Mount Everest — could be made up of materials that may shed light … Continue reading
Latest ‘Solution’ to the Mysterious Ceres Bright Spots
Based data gathered by NASA’s Dawn, new study claims the spots are deposits of sodium carbonate that could have been formed by crystallization. The mystery of Ceres bright spots, first captured by Dawn as it neared the dwarf planet last year, may have finally been solved. Images of Occator captured by Dawn showed shinning spots in its center that could … Continue reading
Intimate Contact May Spread Zika Virus More Often Than Researchers Suspected
An outbreak of the Zika virus in the continental United States could begin any day now. But while there is plenty of discussion about mosquito bites, some researchers are beginning to worry more about the other known transmission route: sex. Intimate contact may account for more Zika infections than previously suspected, these experts say. The evidence is still emerging, and … Continue reading
New Regenerative Tooth Fillings Heal Your Teeth From The Inside
YES!! Scientists in the UK have developed a new material that can be inserted into teeth to repair and regenerate dentin – the hard, bone-like tissue that makes up the bulk of all teeth. Just like regular fillings, which are inserted into a tooth to block off spaces where bacteria could colonise, the new material is injected into the tooth … Continue reading

Why You Should Be Afraid Of An Antibiotic Apocalypse
“We are in a post-antibiotic era,” World Health Organization chief Margaret Chan declared earlier this year. Her warning echoed a recent report that found antimicrobial resistance was responsible for more than 700,000 deaths worldwide in 2014 alone and could kill more than 10 million people each year by 2050. Despite the warnings, antibiotic use in humans and livestock continues to … Continue reading
Quantum Computer Could Simulate Beginnings of the Universe
Quantum mechanics suggest that seemingly empty space is actually filled with ghostly particles that are fluctuating in and out of existence. And now, scientists have for the first time made an advanced machine known as a quantum computer simulate these so-called virtual particles. This research could help shed light on currently hidden aspects of the universe, from the hearts of … Continue reading
This Artificial Pancreases Could Be Available To Diabetics As Soon As 2018 – No More Injections!
Researchers from the UK say that the world’s first artificial pancreas could hit the market as early as 2018, offering a better way for those with type 1 diabetes to monitor and control their glucose levels without daily injections. This is huge news, because until now, type 1 diabetes sufferers have had to use two devices to stay healthy: one … Continue reading
What Portal Did CERN Open Now? Strange Cloud Phenomenon Above the LHC
CERN is notorious for opening portals and then denying it; something very strange was captured in the clouds above the Large Hadron Collider just recently. NEW images of bizarre cloud formations above the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) could be shock proof the world’s biggest experiment is about to tear open a portal to another dimension. Editors Addition: “This is … Continue reading
