Turkey's first Blue Economy Summit brought together 13 nations to turn the Black Sea into a hub for green maritime growth. The three-day gathering in Trabzon proved sustainable ocean development can unite regions facing shared challenges.
A kindergartner's dream came true, and now Jessica Fujii studies how California's 3,000 sea otters are keeping coastal ecosystems healthy enough to withstand climate change. By munching through a quarter of their body weight daily in sea urchins and crabs, these furry predators are preserving kelp forests that protect shorelines from warming oceans and stronger storms.
U.S. Coast Guard teams used a Black Hawk helicopter to intercept drug smugglers off Puerto Rico's coast, recovering nearly 400 pounds of cocaine before it could reach American communities. The coordinated operation shows how air and marine units are working together to protect coastal waters.
The University of Southern California brought hundreds of students together for a joyful celebration honoring a century of Black History Month. Music, Black-owned vendors, and cultural traditions filled McCarthy Quad as the campus community gathered to recognize past achievements and future possibilities.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope just solved a 30-year mystery about black holes while capturing the clearest image ever taken of a black hole's surroundings. The breakthrough reveals how supermassive black holes actually feed, changing what scientists thought they knew.
Fifty Black entrepreneurs gathered at the Anchorage Museum for the 11th annual Alaska Black Business Expo, proving their thriving community continues to grow. The event brought together an estimated 1,500 Black-owned businesses across the state for what attendees called "a family reunion."
Scientists just caught a supermassive black hole waking up for the first time, firing cosmic winds at 14% the speed of light. This breakthrough shows exactly when and how black holes reshape entire galaxies.
Astronomers detected a new type of gravitational wave that could reveal what happens right at a black hole's point of no return. The discovery came from the clearest black hole collision signal ever recorded.
A cold-stunned sea turtle rescued in Massachusetts had rescuers scratching their heads over its unusual features. DNA testing revealed Earl Grey is a first-generation hybrid, part of the world's most endangered sea turtle species.
NASA's Webb telescope just rewrote what scientists thought they knew about black holes. The discovery revealed that feeding black holes are far tidier eaters than anyone imagined.
Astronomers are closer to solving one of space's biggest mysteries: whether black holes or galaxies formed first. New evidence suggests black holes might have been the cosmic pioneers.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope discovered a supermassive black hole that formed before its host galaxy, flipping our understanding of cosmic origins upside down. The 50-million-solar-mass black hole makes up two-thirds of its tiny galaxy's total mass.
For the first time, astronomers watched a massive star disappear and transform into a black hole without the usual supernova explosion. The discovery in the Andromeda galaxy could help scientists find countless hidden black holes across the universe. #
Astrophysicists just created the first detection system that uses gravitational waves to locate merging black holes across the universe, opening a revolutionary new way to explore space. The breakthrough already identified two supermassive black hole pairs nicknamed after Lord of the Rings locations.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope discovered a supermassive black hole that existed just 700 million years after the Big Bang, challenging everything scientists thought they knew about how these cosmic giants form. The black hole makes up two-thirds of its entire system's mass, suggesting it formed first and the galaxy came later.
The nation's second-largest school district is investing in Black male students through a proven mentorship program that teaches leadership and life skills. The 5000 Role Models of Excellence Project now serves LAUSD students during Black History Month and beyond.
Astronomers just weighed a black hole from when the universe was only 700 million years old and discovered something remarkable: it's so massive it likely formed before its own galaxy. The finding could finally explain how the universe's first supermassive black holes came to be.
Scientists finally detected a gentle wind flowing from the supermassive black hole at our galaxy's center, solving a puzzle that has stumped astronomers for five decades. The discovery reveals that even "quiet" black holes continuously shape their cosmic neighborhoods.
Amelie, a rare Kemp's ridley sea turtle who survived a shark attack and lost a limb, just swam back into the Atlantic Ocean with a satellite tracker on her shell. She's one of four amputee turtles being monitored to prove that three-legged sea turtles can thrive in the wild.
After 50 years of searching, astronomers finally discovered powerful winds blowing from the supermassive black hole at our galaxy's center. The breakthrough helps us understand that our black hole behaves just like others across the universe.
