"π¨ Scientists Say Luck Is Not Random And Your Mind Shapes It In 2019 Oxford physicists ran an experiment with electrons and found particles behaved differently depending on whether the observer expected a certain result. This confirmed a long-standing hypothesis: expectation itself changes outcomes. πΉ Scientists call this the observer coherence effect. When youre confident youll get lucky your brain filters reality to highlight opportunities others ignore. πΉ Research in Zurich found that people who believe in their luck are 3x more likely to find money land jobs and close deals not because"

"Astronomers have recently discovered a new asteroid called 2025 PN7 which is acting like a small companion of Earth but its not really a moon. Instead its known as a quasi-satellite. This means the asteroid orbits the Sun just like Earth does but in such a way that it stays close to our planet for a long time. Its not trapped by Earths gravity like the Moon; instead it moves in sync with us giving the illusion that its following Earth around. This asteroid belongs to a group called Arjuna asteroids which have orbits very similar to Earths. Because of that they sometimes appear to dance around"

For decades astronomy has been guided by the Copernican Principle the idea that Earth and humans are nothing special and that life should be common throughout the Universe.

"Carbon is the crucial element for life as we know it so understanding where it came from matters a lot if we hope to understand life in the universe. New research claims that the carbon that makes us came later in the formation of Earth. The Sun formed from a large cloud of gas and dust. In its early days our star influenced this material to flatten out into a disk from which eventually the planets would form. The material in said disk is altered vaporized and then condensed again. And here comes the issue carbon would not condense again in a form that can be trapped in the fledgling Earth."

"The statement is a good conceptual summary of our place in the Laniakea Supercluster a cosmic web of about 100000 galaxies that includes our own Milky Way. The Milky Way is situated on the outskirts of this supercluster which is defined by the gravitational "flow" of galaxies towards a central point known as the Great Attractor. The "tiny red dot" analogy comes from visualizations of this structure where the Milky Way is often represented by a small red dot in a vast colorful map of the supercluster. A massive structure containing our Milky Way and approximately 100000 other galaxies. It is"

"Scientists at the University of Southern California found that fasting for XX hours can help your body regenerate its immune system. During fasting the body breaks down old or weak immune cells and activates stem cells to create new ones. This effect was seen in mice and also in a small group of human patients especially those undergoing chemotherapy. The process works by lowering a gene called PKA which allows stem cells to start rebuilding the immune system. Experts say more research is needed but fasting shows promise as a natural way to boost immunity. Source/Reference:"

"New research suggests our universe might not expand forever as we once thought. Instead it could eventually collapse in on itself in a reverse Big Bang a scenario scientists call the Big Crunch. For years astronomers believed the universe would keep growing driven by a mysterious force called dark energy. But a team of physicists led by Henry Tye from Cornell University with collaborators from China and Spain now thinks dark energy might not be constant. Over time it could weaken and eventually allow gravity to pull everything back together. According to their calculations the universe has a"

"The Milky Way has a massive fracture. It was torn by a excessively fast object believed to be moving over X million mph (3 million km/h). Astronomers using NASAs Chandra X-ray Observatory have uncovered a dramatic fracture in one of the Milky Ways colossal magnetic filaments a structure nicknamed the Snake. This cosmic bone officially labeled G359.13 is a 230-light-year-long strand of charged particles glowing in radio waves near the galaxys center. But Chandras high-resolution X-ray view revealed something new: a break in the filaments spine likely caused by a high-speed cosmic collision."

"A new vaccine shows promise in preventing up to XX% of aggressive cancers like melanoma pancreatic cancer and triple-negative breast cancer according to a recent study from researchers at University of Massachusetts Amherst. Using tiny lipid nanoparticles packed with two immune-boosting molecules the vaccine trains both arms of the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. These nanoparticles trigger a fast general response from the innate immune system and a slower more targeted attack from the adaptive immune system which creates memory for long-term protection. In tests on mice"

In a breakthrough study Stanford Medicine researchers have reversed autism-like behaviors in mice by targeting a specific brain region known as the reticular thalamic nucleus. This area which acts as a gatekeeper for sensory information was found to be hyperactive in mice modeling autism leading to symptoms such as hypersensitivity to stimuli social withdrawal seizures and repetitive behaviors. By reducing this hyperactivityusing both an experimental seizure drug (Z944) and a neuromodulation technique"

"Scientists say that a glow of gamma ray radiation from the Milky Way could be evidence that dark matter exists. In a new paper researchers argue that this glow is produced by colliding particles of dark matter. In their study published in the journal Physical Review Letters the researchers used supercomputers to create a map of where dark matter should be in the galaxy. 'Our galaxy formed out of a vast cloud of dark matter' explains Professor Silk. 'The ordinary matter cooled down and fell into the central regions dragging along some dark matter for the ride.'"

Researchers from the University of Oslo analyzed more than 12600 MRI scans from nearly 4700 healthy people between the ages of XX and XX. They discovered that men lose brain volume more quickly and in more areas than women especially in regions linked to memory touch and vision. For instance one area that helps process touch shrank by about XXX% per year in men compared to XXXX% in women. The brain changes happen slowly throughout life but speed up noticeably after age XX. Even after accounting for factors like head"

A study from the University of Southern California has revealed that fasting for XX hours can trigger a complete regeneration of the immune system. Researchers found that prolonged fasting causes the body to deplete its glucose and fat reserves forcing it into a detoxifying state that eliminates damaged cells and toxins. When normal eating resumes stem cells are activated leading to the production of fresh healthy white blood cells. This immune reboot effect was observed in both mice and humans particularly in"

Yet the phrase missing link still lingers implying evolution is incomplete or uncertain. In truth transitional fossils abound from Sahelanthropus tchadensis to"
