NASA scientists have discovered A mysterious structure on Mars This can offer new perspectives on the aqueous past of the red planet.
The dark and stung rock, nicknamed ‘Skull Hill’, was discovered by the perseverance of the NASA rover when he sought signs of ancient life in the hills and rocky outcrops of the sterile Jezero crater – a bowl -shaped depression that scientists suspect once once held a huge old lake.
The rock stands out against the rocher with lighter tones around it, which led scientists to suspect that he may not have been formed. Rather, it may have been transported to a river or a Martian lake in its current position, billions of years ago. However, many questions remain on the origin of the rock and what it can tell us about the history of our cosmic neighbor.
New Discovery Color

A whole new dimension of vision could be just at the corner of the street after scientists He managed to divert the human eye to see a brand new color called Olo.
The color, described by participants in the study as an “unprecedented saturation blue”, was made visible using a technique called “OZ” to stimulate a particular group of light receivers at the back of the participants’ eyes.
Researchers say that their method could be developed to restore color vision in people with color blindness, and that it could potentially provide improved digital vision experiences in the future.

The little mysteries of life

If you have an outdoor cat, you have probably received “gifts” from your fur companion – usually in the form of dead birds and rodents. But have you ever wondered why they did this?
Your cat had to use a lot of energy to capture this price, so eating it themselves would be the most sensible action from the point of view of survival. But the experts say that there is several hypotheses to explain why They continue this weird behavior.
First quantum operating system

Scientists took steps towards a Quantum After developing the The first global operating system to facilitate connections between quantum computers.
Operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows and Apple iOS, manage and control the hardware and software for our computers. They allow users to interact with applications and allow different devices to connect to each other.
Most existing quantum computers are designed and built to fulfill a specific function and use different types of Quantum bits (Qubits) to execute their calculations. But now, a primary quantum operating system called Qnodeos has been developed to allow several quantum computers to connect and be controlled by a single central platform, regardless of the type of qubits they use.

The circulation of southern Atlantic reversal, also known as Amoc, is a large system of ocean currents which brings lukewarm water to the north and ferries of colder water from north to south.
The system, which acts as a huge aqueous treadmill, guarantees that the oceans are continuously mixed and that the heat is distributed around the planet. However, a mysterious “blob” of water in the North Atlantic which has intrigued scientists for decades could be a disturbing signal that these essential currents slow down. SO, What would that mean for us?

The video, shared by the Schmidt Ocean Institute, shows the two parasitic crustaceans called copépods dragging along the fishing fish, their long bags of eggs flowing behind them like a pair of mats.
The images were captured as part of an expedition to examine the seabed and the diversity of strange and wonderful creatures that live there.
