Zooming into a pair of jousting galaxies
This video zooms into a galactic merging event in deep space, like a ‘cosmic joust’. One of these galaxies is piercing the other with intense radiation, emitted by a quasar at its core. This radiation is disrupting the gas and dust inside the other galaxy, dampening its ability to form stars. Using the Atacama Large […]

Strongest hints yet of biological activity outside the solar system
Astronomers have detected the most promising signs yet of a possible biosignature outside the solar system, although they remain cautious. Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the astronomers, led by Professor Nikku Madhusudhan from the University of Cambridge, have detected the chemical fingerprints of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and/or dimethyl disulfide (DMDS), in […]
Lectura y matemáticas para prevenir el envejecimiento cognitivo
El uso regular de ambas prácticas previene el deterioro cognitivo relacionado con la edad. Las habilidades cognitivas aumentan hasta los 40 años y luego declinan, excepto en quienes usan estas competencias frecuentemente. Estos hallazgos podrían influir en políticas públicas para poblaciones envejecidas. / SINC
How to Teleport Schrödinger’s Cat
How to teleport Schrödinger’s cat: this video presents the full quantum teleportation procedure, in which an arbitrary qubit (spin, etc) is teleported from Alice to Bob by way of a pair of particles entangled in a bell (EPR) state and the transmission of information via a classical channel.
