A 3D model of the structure was created and a theory of the origin of craters in permafrost in the north of Siberia in Russia was developed. A publication on one of 17 craters recorded in the region is available in the journal Geosciences. The craters found in the Arctic are considered the results […]

A new inhabitant on Mars: the United States successfully landed the Perseverance rover with a helicopter-drone
Seven months of travel from Earth, during which the spacecraft of the Mars 2020 mission covered almost half a billion kilometers, ended late in the evening of February 18 with the successful landing of the American Perseverance rover in the Jezero crater on Mars. The event was broadcast by the US Aerospace Administration. They […]
The day has come. Perseverance rover lands on Mars today – broadcast
Seven months after the launch from Earth and ~ 471 million km of travel, the Perseverance rover will reach Mars tonight (Kyiv time) and land. This non-trivial event will be broadcast by the US Aerospace Administration. The critical phase will begin no earlier than 22:30. As of 06:45 a.m. on February 18, the Mars […]
New generation. ScanCell creates universal vaccine against all variants of coronavirus
The British biopharm company ScanCell, which specializes in cancer immunotherapy, has developed a vaccine against the coronavirus that has not yet been tested in humans. According to the authors, it will potentially provide protection against various mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, such as “British”, “South African” and “Brazilian”. Writes about this The Telegraph. […]
Unknown animals found under the thickness of ice in Antarctica: they covered a cobblestone – photo
Under the Filchner Ice Shelf in Antarctica, an international team of scientists has found organisms that they cannot yet classify. The discovery was announced today by the journal Frontiers in Marine Science. The study of ice shelves is difficult: this requires drilling a massive layer of ice, which is associated with high financial costs and […]
This is phase IV. The first data on the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine have appeared in Israel
In Israel, for the first time, the ability of the Pfizer-BioNTech anticoid vaccine to induce an immune response was evaluated three weeks after the first dose, that is, before the fixing (second) injection. The results for the population at high risk of catching the coronavirus – for medical professionals – are published as a preprint […]
Wonders of Science. Mice with spinal cord injury restored the ability to walk – there is regeneration
Mice with completely damaged spinal cords were restored to the ability to walk. A study of therapy based on viral delivery of modified interleukin-6 (cytokine, signaling-information molecule) into nerve cells was published in the journal Nature. Higher animals have a small ability of neuronal processes (axons) to recover if they were damaged, and the older […]
Jupiter’s probe extended its life: it will fly to other objects in the system of the gas giant
The US Aerospace Administration has extended the research mission of the interplanetary unmanned station Juno until September 2025 – or until the time when the device finally “dies” due to the strongest radiation in the Jupiter region. This was reported by the press service of the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Launched in 2011, Juno […]
Financial markets: Brussels calls for an integrated database
How to strengthen European capital markets? With Brexit approaching, the issue becomes more pressing. On September 24, the President of the European Commission called for the completion of the Capital Markets Union . This initiative intended to strengthen the integration of the financial markets of the Old Continent, originally launched in 2015, has so far only given rise to scattered […]
