Watch the world's smallest crocodiles snatch bats in their hidden underground lair (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The world's smallest crocodiles use a sneak attack to hunt bats in hellish underground caves filled with poop, a new video reveals. The footage of the never-before-seen behavior was captured for the upcoming National Geographic series "Africa: Earth's Wild Home" and offers a rare glimpse into the lives of Gabon's mysterious cave-dwelling dwarf crocodiles. Dwarf crocodiles (Osteolaemus tetraspis), which grow to only around 5 feet (1.5 meters) long, live across West and Central Africa and are typi
'We're rapidly running out of time': 7 of Earth's 9 life support systems already breached, and the situation is getting worse, report warns (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Earth's life-support systems are in peril — and they're getting worse — but although the window for action is closing, we still have a chance to give our planet a sustainable future, a new report finds. The report, called "Planetary Health Check 2026," was written by more than 60 scientists and assessed the state of interconnected natural systems, or planetary boundaries, upon which Earth's stability and resilience depend. When these boundaries are crossed, researchers say there's an increasing
SpaceX's Starship reaches orbit for the first time, then returns early and blows up in a fiery explosion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Starship has made it to orbit for the first time ever. But the loss of an engine during its nail-biting ascent meant SpaceX's mission ended earlier than planned — with an explosion to boot. The tallest and most powerful rocket ever built blasted off from SpaceX's Starbase in Boca Chica, Texas on Monday (Sept. 28) at 8.49 a.m. ET (7.49 a.m. local time). Soon after launch, one of Starship's 33 engines failed. A tense few minutes followed while the mission team deliberated over whether the mission
'At some point we're going to have to react': How El Niño, climate change, and crime are pushing the Amazon rainforest over the brink (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Amazon, Earth's largest tropical rainforest, could be on the brink of an irreversible change as the ongoing El Niño strengthens its grip on our climate. El Niño is the warm phase of a multiyear natural climate cycle that is often marked by rising global temperatures and disruptive weather. This time, scientists monitoring the event are warning that climate change has helped supercharge it to likely the strongest ever recorded. As temperature records are breached and the risk of a humanitaria
Watch the first-ever footage of a rare deep-sea squid in the northeastern Pacific (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A bizarre squid has been filmed haunting the northeastern Pacific Ocean for the first time. Researchers spotted the bigfin squid (Magnapinna) via remote video while using an uncrewed submersible to explore underwater mountains, known as seamounts, at a depth of more than 10,000 feet (3,000 meters) off the coast of California. The footage, captured Aug. 7, represents the first confirmed live observation of a bigfin squid in the northeastern Pacific, according to the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research
