KELT-9b: The Hottest Planet Ever Discovered and Its Unbelievable Atmosphere
On January 7, scientists published a groundbreaking study in Astrophysical Journal Letters detailing the extreme conditions of the hottest exoplanet ever discovered: KELT-9b. This planet, located 670 light years away, is subjected to such intense heat that its molecules are being torn apart. What makes KELT-9b even more fascinating is its "tidal locking" phenomenon, where one side of the planet always faces its scorching star, creating extraordinary atmospheric dynamics.

The Genetics of Genius: Can Talent Be Inherited or Is It Built?
The Science Behind Genius: Is Talent Inherited or Developed? The question of whether genius is a product of natural talent or can be cultivated through education has been debated for centuries. Russian scientist Dr. Sergey Savelyev, a leading expert in brain morphology, has spent a lifetime studying the structure of the human brain in an attempt to uncover the origins of genius. Through his research, he has arrived at a conclusion that challenges popular belief: genius is not something that can be taught—it is inherently tied to the structure of the brain and is largely determined by genetics.

🌍 Earth’s 100 Million-Year Makeover
To demonstrate that the Earth's surface is in constant motion, scientists at the University of Sydney have developed a groundbreaking model illustrating the transformation of Earth's landscapes over the past 100 million years. Published on March 2nd in the journal Science, this model explores the impact of climate on the movement of sediments in rivers and oceans, alongside the shifting of tectonic plates. The research team hopes their work will provide a powerful tool for testing predictions about how climate change may shape Earth’s surface in the future.

Robotic Fish: The Future of Smart Aquaculture
At the National Innovation Center for Digital Fisheries in Beijing, two sleek, metallic-coated robotic fish swim effortlessly in a breeding tank, revealing cutting-edge research that could revolutionize the aquaculture industry. "These are the robotic tuna and dolphin we have developed," said an associate professor at China Agricultural University (CAU). "They exhibit different swimming characteristics, but their core purpose remains the same: to assist fish farms."
