Gaze into the cosmos and through the eyes of a bee — September’s best science images (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Cosmic curiosities. Stargazer Ali Alobaidly collected 28 hours of observation from the Kuwait desert to create this composite image of the Shark Nebula, a dusty region 200 parsecs (650 light years) from the Sun. His image took the top spot in the ZWO Astronomy Photographer of the Year competition. In the competition’s Our Sun category, a shot named Active Region 4122 came first. Miguel Claro captured the sunspot through a telescope from Reguengos de Monsaraz, Portugal. The winner in the Skyscape
OpenAI claims huge maths breakthrough on a famed âMillennium Problemâ (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For the first time, a truly major open problem in mathematics has been solved by computer, according to OpenAI, which says it has cracked one of the âMillennium Problemsâ related to the motion of fluids. The artificial-intelligence (AI) company in San Francisco, California, announced on 8 September that it has generated a solution to the most commonly used physical model of fluids â the Navier-Stokes equations â showing that they can break down. Whether or not this could happen was one o
Anthropic AI âformalizesâ proof of Fermatâs last theorem â a milestone for mathematics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fermatâs last theorem, one of the most celebrated mathematical results of the last half-century, has been turned into computer-verified code for the first time, using an advanced prototype of the artificial-intelligence (AI) chatbot Claude. AI cracks 80-year-old mathematics challenge â researchers are astonished AI cracks 80-year-old mathematics challenge â researchers are astonished The fact that a machine could turn the work of human mathematicians into a 13-million-line-long, ironclad p
Is this the first glimpse of dark matter? Data point excites physicists (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It is a single data point, but enough to send a shiver down physicistsâ spines. Some time in 2023 or 2024, a detector containing 10 tonnes of ultra-pure liquid xenon registered an unusual energetic flash. It was the type of signal that could be caused by a collision between an atomâs nucleus and a massive dark-matter particle as it passes through our Galaxy. If the finding can be backed up with more data, it could mean that dark matter â the invisible stuff that is thought to keep galaxies
Lift-off! NASA launches Roman Space Telescope to tackle dark-energy mysteries (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The largest infrared digital camera ever built and its scientific companion, a massive mirror originally designed for a spy satellite, are now safely in orbit, after the flawless launch of NASAâs newest flagship telescope. The US$4.3-billion Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope lifted off atop a SpaceX rocket at 7.35 a.m. local time today from NASAâs Kennedy Space Center in Florida, and it will soon be on its way to its final location. The observatory is expected to yield a wealth of discoverie
