Like the hidden chambers detected by muography, Earth's core is something that cannot be directly researched. As scientists continue to build on existing knowledge and simulate the conditions that exist at the Earth's core, though, we are coming increasingly close to discovering what may actually be happening at the center of our planet. According to recent simulations, it is possible that Earth's core is actually composed of so-called "superionic" matter that exhibits both solid and liquid properties.
If there is one type of disease that requires the most extensive involvement from all the fields included in STEM, it would be cancer. This article discusses a promising new nuclear technology that may be able to identify cancerous tumors much more easily than current diagnostic tools, allowing doctors to find suspicious areas with a minimal amount of cost and effort.
Though mimicry is a common means of survival in the animal world, recent studies regarding the greater mouse-eared bat indicate that the species may be the first mammal to demonstrate mimicry of insects. Analyses of the sound profile of the mouse-eared bats’ buzzing stress calls compared to the sounds of hornets and wasps indicate that one of the bat’s main predators, owls, may be deterred by the sound. Though not an earth-shattering discovery by any means, this article is a great read for those interested in biology and research.
