Incorporating exercise into our daily routine is essential for maintaining a healthy lifestyle. However, recent research conducted at the University of Manchester suggests that there is an even simpler way to enhance the benefits of exercise: committing to the same time each day for physical activity. This study, conducted on mice, reveals the advantages of
India, with its cutting-edge technology and impressive digital infrastructure, has gained recognition as a leader in the tech world. However, alongside these advancements, there is an alarming trend of internet shutdowns when political unrest or sectarian violence arises. India has become notorious for its high number of internet shutdowns, with authorities relying on this extreme
Venus, our neighboring planet, offers an alluring resemblance to Earth in terms of size, composition, and density. However, the similarities end there, as Venus harbors an entirely inhospitable environment. Covered in a dense layer of toxic, acidic clouds, the surface of Venus presents a hostile landscape, not only for life but for any potential exploration.
For over two centuries, scientists have been attempting to grow dolomite, a common mineral found in various geological formations, under laboratory conditions that mimic its natural formation. However, it was not until recently that a team of researchers from the University of Michigan and Hokkaido University in Sapporo, Japan achieved this long-awaited breakthrough. Their success
Tesla, the electric carmaker led by Elon Musk, is facing a supply chain struggle in Sweden due to an ongoing labor strike. The strike, initiated by the metal workers’ union IF Metall, started after Tesla refused to sign a collective wage agreement. In support of the strike, Swedish postal workers have ceased deliveries to Tesla
For centuries, scientists have grappled with the challenge of growing dolomite, a common mineral found in various geological formations.
