Only twice in the past half a billion years have there been prolonged cold spells, including the current one, which has lasted

Lack of wildfires has damaged modern forests

<img src=”https://naked-science.ru/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/photo_2025-02-14_17-47-25.jpg” alt=”Lack of forest fires has harmed modern forests”/>In recent decades, the media has been writing about unusually frequent and severe forest fires caused by global warming. The authors of a new scientific paper decided to check how things were before 1880, when global warming had

Industrial parts made stronger with laser

One of the main sources is the tongue, where the taste buds are located. These are receptors that transmit information about

Parent stars may distort exoplanet data

<img src=”https://naked-science.ru/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/eso1621a.jpg” alt=”Parent stars can distort data on exoplanets”/>Because of star spots, scientists could have failed to notice errors in data on exoplanets transmitted by space telescopes for decades. This was discovered by the authors of a new study. They believe that without taking into account the

Physicists have found a way to provide negative refraction of light without using metamaterials

<img src=”https://naked-science.ru/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/negative-refraction-of.jpg” alt=”Physicists have found a way to ensure negative refraction of light without using metamaterials”/>Physicists have demonstrated for the first time that negative refraction of light can be achieved using atomic lattices – without using artificially created metamaterials. This could revolutionize optics and stealth technologies.

Astronomers explain complex and changing glow of rare supernova
