What lies beneath one of the most important fortified settlements of Hellenistic Calabria? A study combining archaeology and geophysics has begun to answer this question. Thanks to the application of sophisticated subsurface exploration techniques, an interdisciplinary team from the University of Catania has succeeded in identifying anomalies compatible with buried structures at the Castiglione di […]

The death, which radiocarbon dating places between 3932 and 3653 B.C., surprised an individual at approximately forty weeks of gestation in the rock shelter of Ripari Altí, at 1,100 meters above sea level, within the current Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park. The archaeological context points to the final phases of the Neolithic, a period in which […]

Excavations carried out as part of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) have brought to light an architectural complex of incalculable value in the heart of Villa Celimontana. Under the supervision of the Special Superintendency of Rome of the Ministry of Culture, the work has uncovered eight rooms belonging to an Imperial-era building whose […]

More than 500 meters beneath the Earth’s surface, a dark and ancient world teems with fungal life on a scale scientists had never imagined. A research team led by the University of Michigan has, for the first time, quantified the abundance of fungi in a deep subsurface site, reaching depths of up to 500 meters, […]

The Turkish Minister of Culture and Tourism, Mehmet Nuri Ersoy, has announced the completion of the excavation and restoration works of an ancient pool located in the frigidarium of the monumental complex known as the Hamam Gymnasium, within the ancient city of Tralleis, in the province of Aydın.

Scientists at the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona report they detected a plume from the impact August 5 from that errant SpaceX rocket stage. “We can safely say that we measured a response from the rocket stage impact as a sodium and lithium gas plume a few 10’s of kilometers in size lasting between 5 […]

Planting boots on Mars is hard enough. But getting “breathing room” on the Red Planet without inhaling toxic dust is yet another issue. Given the outlook that future human crews will strut their right stuff across the Red Planet, NASA assembled earlier this year a Martian Dust Limit Working Group. Their task was to review […]

The Moon is in the cross-hairs of a SpaceX rocket stage, slamming into our celestial neighbor on August 5 at roughly 2:35:37.5 AM (US) Eastern Daylight Time reports astronomer, Bill Gray of Project Pluto. That high-speed impact “may produce potential observables,” according to research led by Benjamin Fernando at Los Alamos National Laboratory. — The […]

Meet the Neighbors – Life on Mars and How to Find It by Steven A. Benner; Allen Lane, (an imprint of Penguin Books); July 2026; 416 pages (Hardcover); $40.99 (Amazon). Talk about a “cold case” – nothing like dealing with life on Mars where the temperature can drop like a rock to roughly – 89°C at […]

What’s shaking about water ice deposits on the Moon? Turns out that assessing how seismic waves propagate on the Moon could be used to locate and map ice buried beneath the lunar surface. A new study by geologists at the University of Maryland (UMD), Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of Hawaii shows that […]
