Marine life booms with a spate of new species every 36 million years, and tectonic heaving is the indirect reason, new research has found.A deep analysis of the fossil and geological record reveals a changing sea level that occurs in response to a 36-million-year cycle of tectonic movement.This, a team led by geologist Slah Boulila of Sorbonne University in France has found, disrupts several ecosystems, causing many species to struggle – and new ones to blossom to fill the new ecological niches that emerge."In terms of…

Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain It's being asked more and more: "Add a tip?" The question pops up on checkout screens when we're just grabbing a coffee to go or picking up a lunch order. Starbucks, for instance, added the tip query to its sales system last year. The countertop tip jar full of crumpled singles and loose change seems to have gotten an upgrade. The tip prompt has even been spotted at self-checkout kiosks in…

According to researchers at the University of Southampton, a massive space explosion was discovered that was ten times brighter than any known supernova (exploding star) and three times brighter than the brightest tidal disruption event, where a star falls into a supermassive black hole.The explosion is going on for the past three years and actually took place nearly 8 billion light years away when the universe was around 6 billion years old. The explosion is known as AT2021lwx and is considered the biggest explosion in…

Getting started in Bitcoin can be quite expensive. Fortunately, the crypto space offers diverse opportunities with plenty of penny crypto possibilities to consider. Not only are they entertaining, but most have utility features. One such opportunity is DigiToads–a meme coin project with massive potential. The coin is one of many poised to hit 1000X soon, riding on DeFi, NFTs, blockchain gaming, and the strong belief from the crypto community that the project will succeed in the coming years. It stands to outperform Dubai…

Thriving locally in Liverpool in 1961, dominating the charts by 1963 and all but over by 1965, Merseybeat was a short-lived phenomenon that reverberated around the world. The sound of young working-class Liverpudlians recasting their love of American R&B, rock’n’roll and doo-wop in their own image, it was the scene that birthed the Beatles – whose debut album recently turned 60 – alongside other stars like Gerry and the Pacemakers, Cilla Black and the Searchers, becoming the UK’s first significant contribution to pop…

Astronomers think GRB 221009A represents the birth of a new black hole formed within the heart of a collapsing star. In this illustration, the black hole drives powerful jets of particles traveling near the speed of light. The jets pierce through the star, emitting X-rays and gamma rays as they stream into space.

Yesterday, it was reported that multiple highly active regions on the Sun were spotted on the farside of the Earth that are threatening our planet with some powerful solar storms. But even before that, one of the Earth-facing sunspots, AR3331, went unstable yesterday, June 9, and produced an M2.5-class solar flare. The incident was spotted by the NASA Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). The eruption sparked a short-wave radio blackout in Mexico and the southern region of the USA, marking the second such event this week.…

A record-breaking space explosion that lit up the sky with the most power we've ever seen was caused by a structured jet carrying massive amounts of exploded star guts pointing directly at Earth, scientists have determined.The gamma-ray burst GRB 221009A, detected in October of last year, was so bright that our instruments struggled to measure it. But when the first hints of it came through, scientists scrambled to point telescopes in its direction, and with the wealth of data collected, an international team of…
