Hoover Dam was cast in columns because one solid pour would take 125 years to reach air temperature (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A bucket holding eight cubic yards of concrete swung out over Black Canyon on a cable, dropped into a form, and opened. Seven men went in after it with shovels, rubber boots and pneumatic vibrators, spreading a mix so dry that it would take its initial set inside the bucket if the crane operator was slow. Threaded through the form, waiting, were coils of one-inch steel pipe. The pipe was there because Bureau of Reclamation engineers had worked out what would happen if the dam were built the obvi
A star was torn apart about 30,000 light-years out from its galaxy's core, and astronomers cannot yet say whether the black hole that did it was flung there or is the last dense trace of a swallowed dwarf galaxy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A bright blue point of light sits off to one side of a massive quiescent galaxy, well outside its bulge, in a patch of sky where archival survey images show nothing down to about 24th magnitude. The point of light is a star being torn apart, and the black hole tearing it apart lies 9.5 arcseconds from that galaxy’s center, a projected 9.3 kiloparsecs, which works out to about 30,000 light-years. Astronomers have catalogued roughly 200 of these flares, called tidal disruption events, and the grea
Shown two everyday objects and asked which one they had seen first, 50 adults pointed to the wrong object 78 percent of the time, and the wrong object was always the one they had seen most often (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Information encountered several times gets remembered as having first arrived earlier than information encountered once, even when the repeated material is the better remembered of the two. That is the finding of six experiments by Brynn Sherman of the University of Pennsylvania and Sami Yousif of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, published in Psychological Science in April 2025. They call the pattern the temporal repetition effect. The sharpest demonstration used a forced choice.
Parts of the northern United States see only a shallow bite taken out of the Sun on August 12, from 3 percent in Detroit to 37 percent in Fairbanks — and the same alignment leaves the sky moonless for that night's Perseid peak (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Detroit will see 3 percent of the Sun covered. Fairbanks will see 37 percent. Between those two numbers sits every other American city on NASA’s list, and much of the country sees none of it. Then, after midnight, the compensation. A solar eclipse can only happen at new moon, so the sky over North America on the night of August 12 holds no moonlight at all, and that is the night the Perseids reach their predicted maximum. The path of totality crosses Greenland, Iceland, northern Russia, the Atla
A spider in the Himalayas wears the same red smiling face as Hawaii's famous happy-face spider — and its DNA marks it as a new species, not the Hawaiian one long thought to wear that grin alone (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On the underside of a leaf more than two kilometers up in the mountains of Uttarakhand, a tiny spider carries a bright smile on its back. Two dark dots for eyes, a red curve for a mouth, the whole cartoon face painted across its abdomen. It is the same expression that made the Hawaiian happy-face spider one of the most recognizable arachnids on Earth, and for more than a hundred years that face was thought to belong to Hawaii and nowhere else. That century-old assumption has just broken. Writing
