The James Webb Space Telescope studied two candidate stars for Dyson spheres and refuted the existence of alien megastructures, attributing the thermal anomaly to background galaxies.

An international team of physicists has discovered the first type-I superconductor in YbSb₂ that exhibits signs of time-reversal symmetry breaking.

🌍 Scientists from Caltech have turned the understanding of Earth's chemical history upside down! For a long time, it was believed that 2 billion years ago there was a global shift in the carbon cycle. But new data from samples from Karelia (🇷🇺) shows: anomalies were caused by local contact of magma with rocks, not a planetary cataclysm. The global theory is under threat, the final verdict is up to samples from Gabon. 🔬🧬 #Science #Geology #EarthHistory

🧬 American scientists have created 16 new viruses with the help of AI! 🦠 Researchers used genomic language models (Evo 1 and Evo 2) to design bacteriophages. Out of 285 synthesized constructs, 16 proved viable and successfully destroyed E. coli bacteria. One of the viruses (Evo-Φ2147) is so unique that it can be considered a new species (93% different from natural analogues). The technology paves the way for fighting resistant bacteria but requires strict control. 🧪🔬 #Science #AI #Biotechnology #Viruses #Research
