Chinese scientists are studying human embryo development in microgravity to understand if we can safely have babies beyond Earth. The research could be crucial for future moon and Mars settlements.
Dubai's Museum of the Future is approaching five million visitors just four years after opening, cementing its status as a global hub for innovation and dialogue. The museum has hosted 620 events and welcomed leaders from around the world while launching initiatives to empower Arab minds and shape humanity's future.
A leading university researcher says the future of scientific discovery lies not in AI replacing humans, but in deliberately designed partnerships that combine computational power with human judgment. After speaking to 14,000 people worldwide, Professor Sir Bashir M. Al-Hashimi argues that expertise is evolving, not disappearing.
Scientists at Cambridge University have successfully tested the first AI-designed vaccine in humans, a breakthrough that could protect against viruses before they even emerge. The technology aims to end the endless cycle of chasing new virus variants.
Ancient humans in China crafted sophisticated stone tools during a brutal ice age, proving creativity thrives under pressure. The discovery rewrites what we thought we knew about early human innovation.
A groundbreaking study reveals sperm struggle to navigate in microgravity, but researchers discovered a promising solution. The findings could help future space colonists start families beyond Earth.
Employers are doubling down on AI skills, but they're looking for something unexpected: people who can blend technology with creativity, emotional intelligence, and adaptability. The future of work isn't choosing between human and machine—it's about making them work together.
Australian researchers are solving the puzzle of how humans might have babies in space, discovering surprising challenges that need solutions before we can settle other worlds. Their groundbreaking experiments reveal both obstacles and paths forward for space-faring families.
After decades in tech across the US and China, Alvin W. Graylin sees three possible futures for artificial intelligence. His TED talk maps out how humanity can choose the path that benefits everyone. ---
Four astronauts launched aboard NASA's Artemis 2 mission on April 1, marking humanity's first return to lunar orbit in over five decades. The crew will travel farther into space than any humans before them during their historic 10-day journey.
New fossil discoveries reveal how our uniquely powerful thumbs helped make us human. The evolution of our hands may be just as important as our big brains in shaping who we became.
Scientists discovered tiny genetic "switches" that shaped human language ability before we split from Neanderthals. These ancient regulators still influence how we learn and use language today.
New research reveals our evolutionary history wasn't a straight line from apes to humans. Scientists are rethinking how we classify our ancient relatives as discoveries show they were more sophisticated than we believed.
A new method has revealed that all living humans carry DNA from a mysterious extinct human group that interbred with our ancestors before they left Africa. The discovery rewrites our understanding of human evolution and proves we're connected to relatives we've never even found fossils for.
Researchers gathered in Colorado to seriously plan the first crewed mission to Titan, Saturn's largest moon, marking it as humanity's next frontier after Mars. The moon's thick atmosphere and abundant resources make it surprisingly ideal for human exploration.
Scientists discovered ancient human ancestor fossils in Morocco dating back 800,000 years, revealing that North Africa played a central role in human evolution. The findings are transforming our understanding of how early humans lived, worked, and mourned their dead.
Nearly half a million years ago, ancient humans in Zambia fitted large logs together to build a structure—long before our species even existed. The discovery rewrites what we thought possible in the Stone Age.
The National Institutes of Health just announced its biggest push yet to move beyond animal testing, unveiling $88 million in funding for labs that use human cells, AI, and quantum tech instead. The shift promises faster drug development that's more accurate for treating actual human patients.
Four astronauts aboard NASA's Artemis 2 mission crossed into the moon's gravitational sphere on April 6, becoming the first humans to reach lunar space since 1972. Tonight, they'll break the distance record for human spaceflight.
Actor Ethan Hawke delivered a moving explanation of why AI can never replace human creativity, describing his daughter's imperfect art as more valuable than any AI-generated masterpiece. His response is resonating with millions who worry about technology replacing human expression.
