Scientists Found a 520M y.o Miracle: a Fossil With Brains and Guts Intact A remarkable fossilized larva has been discovered by scientists with its brain and guts still intact. The fossilized creature is one of the earliest ancestors of a group known as arthropods, which includes insects, crabs, and lobsters. A unique window into the past, the ancient critter has allowed experts a chance to better understand evolutionary links between the arthropods of the past and those of the present day. originally posted at

Sunbird rocket shocked scientists by becoming the fastest object in history A new chapter in space revolution is about to begin with something we never would have thought of. A British company called Pulsar Fusion has presented a project that is nothing short of ambitious: a nuclear fusion rocket they have nicknamed Sunbird. This rocket is capable of reaching 800,000 km/h and, according to their calculations, it could reduce the trip to Mars by more than half the time, going from the current estimated 7–10 months to just around 4 months. We’ll tell you everything this feat involves and how it may be that we’re witnessing the future of space travel! originally posted at

Einstein's dream of a unified field theory accomplished? https://phys.org/news/2025-04-einstein-field-theory.html During the latter part of the 20th century, string theory was put forward as a unifying theory of physics foundations. String theory has not, however, fulfilled expectations. That is why we are of the view that the scientific community needs to reconsider what comprises elementary forces and particles. originally posted at

Scientists Discover Human Brain Outperforms Technology in Quantum Processing Probably, if we told you that the human body is much faster than a quantum computer, you’d think we’re crazy. You don’t need a lab or a physics degree to be amazed by what science has just discovered: inside our cells we might be hiding a processing system so fast and powerful that it could compete with the world’s most advanced computers, and all without cables or screens. Just us and our body, and under normal temperature and environmental conditions! originally posted at

The White House Launches Revolutionary “Podcast Row” On Thursday, March 27, The White House launched its revolutionary new media gateway called “Podcast Row,” embracing dozens of well-known political podcasters. “We are so proud to welcome new media voices and podcasters from around the country who have massive audiences and are talking to everyday Americans like you.” “This is what’s it’s all about – new media, new voices, and getting the president’s message out to all Americans. These podcasters are speaking to administration officials, cabinet secretaries, White House officials, and we are having a lot of fun,” Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a formal White House greeting. originally posted at

Strategy just bought almost $2 billion Bitcoin near the local top of $86k Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, has acquired 22,048 additional Bitcoin between March 24 and March 30, bringing its total holdings to 528,185 BTC, according to a March 31 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The purchase, valued at approximately $1.92 billion, was executed at an average price of $86,969 per Bitcoin, including fees and expenses. Bitcoin began an upward movement when Strategy purchased the new Bitcoin, followed by a 5.7% increase into the purple channel below. However, the price reversed on Friday, leading to a drop to $82k. Strategy’s latest Bitcoin purchase is in the red by over $100 million as of press time. originally posted at

Hackers Could Drop Teams Malware via Browser’s Cache Smuggling A novel attack vector combining browser cache exploitation and DLL proxying has emerged as a significant threat to organizations using Microsoft Teams and OneDrive. Dubbed Browser Cache Smuggling, this technique allows attackers to bypass traditional security defenses by leveraging browsers’ caching mechanisms to deliver malware disguised as benign files. originally posted at

Light has been transformed into a 'supersolid' for the first time An odd solid that can flow like a fluid has been created from light for the first time. Studying it will help researchers better understand exotic quantum states of matter. “We actually made light into a solid. That’s pretty awesome,” says Dimitris Trypogeorgos at the National Research Council (CNR) in Italy. He notes Daniele Sanvitto, also at CNR, showed how light could become a fluid more than a decade ago. Now Trypogeorgos, Sanvitto and their colleagues have used light to make not just any solid, but a quantum “supersolid”. originally posted at

Hackers Weaponizing PowerShell & Microsoft Legitimate Apps To Deploy Malware Cybersecurity experts have recently observed a concerning trend in attack methodologies, with threat actors increasingly leveraging fileless techniques that weaponize PowerShell and legitimate Microsoft applications to deploy malware while evading detection. These sophisticated attacks operate primarily in memory, leaving minimal forensic evidence and bypassing traditional security solutions that rely on file-based detection methods. originally posted at
