Former US President Donald Trump’s proposals for sweeping tariffs threaten to hobble exports that drive Asia’s growth. Trump has pledged to impose tariffs of 60 percent or more on Chinese imports and tariffs of 10 to 20 percent on all other foreign goods. This move could result in a particularly serious economic fallout in Asia,…
Scientists have successfully cooled and accelerated a beam of muons, a breakthrough that could lead to new types of particle physics experiments. Muons, heavy cousins of electrons, could be accelerated and slammed together at future particle colliders to unlock physics secrets. This achievement is a crucial step towards making muon colliders a reality. Forecast for…
A small group of climate tech founders, including Halen Mattison and Luke Neise, have shifted their focus from space to Earth, developing technology that can convert carbon dioxide into methane for use in industries such as chemical and plastic manufacturing. Their company, General Galactic, has built a pilot system that can produce 2,000 liters of…
Researchers from the Netherlands, the UK, and the US have made a groundbreaking discovery that could bring us closer to understanding dark matter. They found that hypothetical particles called axions could form dense clouds around neutron stars, emitting signals that radio telescopes can detect. This breakthrough raises hopes that axions could be the long-sought solution…
A recent article highlights the issue of missing data in scientific research, which can lead to biased results and undermine the validity of studies. Statisticians have developed techniques to deal with missing data, but the problem persists. The article explores the history of missing data and the efforts of statistician Donald Rubin to develop a…
As climate change threatens global food production, researchers and environmental advocates are turning to regenerative agriculture as a solution. By improving soil health, crops can become more resilient to drought and extreme weather. Governments are being urged to offer financial incentives to farmers who adopt regenerative practices, which include crop rotation, cover cropping, and boosting…

Boeing workers in the United States have voted to accept the aircraft manufacturer’s latest contract offer, ending a seven-week strike that crippled production of the 737 Max and 777. The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) said 59 percent of its members voted to approve the deal, which includes a 38 percent pay…
Scientists have discovered that Uranus’ unusual magnetic field and radiation belts, observed by Voyager 2 in 1986, may be due to a rare solar wind event that compressed the planet’s magnetosphere. This finding could explain several long-standing puzzles about Uranus and its moons, and may inform planning for future missions to the planet. Forecast for…
