"Astronomers shocked by how these giant exoplanets formed ScienceDaily A distant star system with four super-sized gas giants has revealed a surprise. Thanks to JWSTs powerful vision astronomers detected sulfur in their atmospheres a chemical clue that they formed like Jupiter by slowly building solid cores. Thats unexpected because these planets are far bigger and orbit much farther from their star than models once allowed"

"Existential risk Why scientists are racing to define consciousness ScienceDaily Scientists warn that rapid advances in AI and neurotechnology are outpacing our understanding of consciousness creating serious ethical risks. New research argues that developing scientific tests for awareness could transform medicine animal welfare law and AI development. But identifying consciousness in machines brain organoids or patients could also force society to rethink responsibility rights and moral boundaries. The question of what it means to be conscious has never been more urgentor more unsettling"

"Astronomers watch a massive star collapse into a black hole without a supernova ScienceDaily A massive star [---] million light-years away simply vanished and astronomers now know why. Instead of exploding in a supernova it quietly collapsed into a black hole shedding its outer layers in a slow-motion cosmic fade-out. The leftover debris continues to glow in infrared light offering a long-lasting signal of the black holes birth. The finding reshapes our understanding of how some of the universes biggest stars meet their end"

"Trophic level In ecology the trophic level is the position that an organism occupies in a food chain - what it eats and what eats it. Wildlife biologists look at a natural "economy of energy" that ultimately rests upon solar energy. When they look at an ecosystem there is almost always some foundation species that directly harvests energy from the sun for example grass (however in deep sea hydrothermal vents chemosynthetic archaea form the base of the food chain). Next are herbivores (primary consumers) that eat the grass such as the rabbit. Next are carnivores (secondary consumers) that eat"
