Within a preserved ancient fish estimated to be about 380 million years old, scientists found a heart. According to scientists, the specimen is indicative of a crucial stage in the development of the blood-pump organ present in all vertebrate creatures,...

Scientists have unlocked the hereditary code of the "immortal jellyfish," which has the ability to repeatedly return to its juvenile larval form, and therefore it can live forever. Being the only species that is capable of repetitively rejuvenating itself after...

Off the coast of West Africa, a potential asteroid impact crater has been found, providing new insights into the extinction of the dinosaurs. Uisdean Nicholson, a geologist at Heriot Watt University in the UK, and his team began poring over...

Almost 100 years after its extinction, scientists at The University of Melbourne are ready to try and bring the Tasmanian tiger (thylacine) back to life. The species has been declared extinct since the 1930s. The initiative now has a partnership...

Scientists have detected the distribution of the oldest dark matter ever observed in the universe based on calculations from the glow of surrounding galaxies of twelve billion years ago. The history of our entire universe is smeared across the vastness...

Measures taken across the world to restrict vehicular traffic and public movement in order to reduce the spread of the coronavirus have begun to have a positive impact on the environment -- and even on the Earth itself --...

There has been a great deal of discussion about the impact warmer weather may have on the spreading of the Coronavirus. Many in Greece and the rest of the northern hemisphere will hope that as the temperature rises with...
