Physicists have proven the effectiveness of 65-year-old theory of relativity by making objects appear to move at the speed of light
Scientists used ultrafast laser pulses and a special camera to simulate an optical illusion that appears to contradict Einstein’s special theory of relativity. One of the consequences of special relativity is that fast-moving objects appear shorter in the direction of their movement. This is a phenomenon known as Lorentz contraction. This effect has been indirectly […]
Which planet is the youngest and oldest in our solar system?
About 4.6 billion years ago, the celestial clouds collapsed, paving the way for the formation of the solar system. After that, a nebula with a strong gravitational pull was formed, and the birth of the sun began. But subsequent details leave room for debate as to which planet formed first. So what do we know […]

It’s never too late for Apple to get AI right
This week, OpenAI announced that apps can now run directly within ChatGPT, allowing users to book travel, create playlists, and edit designs without switching between different apps. Some were quick to proclaim it the app platform of the future, predicting a ChatGPT-powered world where Apple’s App Store would be deprecated. Today, we answered an open […]
Hidden supercharger ‘thermostat’ could be responsible for overcompensating for global climate change
The Earth may respond to the large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) humans are pumping into the atmosphere by “over-correcting” the imbalance, potentially allowing the next ice age to arrive on schedule rather than tens of thousands of years late as previously predicted. This is due to a newly discovered ‘thermostat’ that is so efficient […]

Hackers turn Velociraptor DFIR tool into a weapon in LockBit ransomware attack
October 11, 2025Ravi LakshmananNetwork security/vulnerabilities Threat actors are exploiting Velociraptor, an open-source digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) tool, in connection with ransomware attacks believed to be orchestrated by Storm-2603 (also known as CL-CRI-1040 or Gold Salem), known for deploying Warlock and LockBit ransomware. The use of security utilities by threat actors was documented by […]
Einstein’s theory of relativity could rewrite important rules about what kinds of planets are habitable
Planets around white dwarfs could provide long-term homes for extraterrestrial life, but they suffer from deadly overheating problems. Who will save them? According to new research, it’s none other than Albert Einstein. White dwarfs are compact remnants of dead Sun-like stars. They are scattered throughout the universe, and the Milky Way alone is home to […]
