The Milky Way’s fastest star could expose our black hole’s spin The star S301 swoops so close to our galaxy’s supermassive black hole that it could, for the first time ever, reveal that dark behemoth’s rotation By Sanidhya Sharma edited by Lee Billings Nothing can escape a black hole—except, potentially, its secrets. Astrophysicists have spied a unique star called S301 whipping around Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), the supermassive black hole at the Milky Way’s heart. S301 orbits Sgr A* so tightly tha

See hundreds of stingrays swarming off the coast of New York A “fever” of cownose rays revealed by striking drone footage could be a sign of warming oceans By Sanidhya Sharma edited by Claire Cameron Incredible new video footage reveals a convoy of hundreds of stingrays—a grouping that marine biologists call a “fever”—off the coast of Southampton, N.Y. In the videos, shot by drone by Joanna Steidle, the creatures can be seen gliding just beneath the water’s surface like hundreds of raviolis floa

Sunlight could be the key to making quantum computers less energy-hungry A proof-of-principle experiment used concentrated sunlight to produce entangled photons By Sanidhya Sharma edited by Claire Cameron At the foundation of photonic quantum computing are pairs of light particles. Linked together through a process called quantum entanglement, these so-called entangled particles mirror each other, no matter the distance between them. And now researchers have shown that good old sunlight can crea

Europe’s heat waves are killing thousands—and wringing its soils dry The European continent is facing a dual reckoning this summer—extreme heat is killing thousands and draining its rivers, soils and reservoirs at a record pace By Sanidhya Sharma edited by Andrea Thompson Europe’s climate-change-driven summer of extreme heat has been hitting the continent with a one-two punch: the heat wave has not only killed thousands but has been sucking the water out of rivers, lakes, soils, and plants and f

Long-lost coral reefs rediscovered off the coast of Africa This marine ecosystem in the Gulf of Guinea shows the resilience of coral reefs against climate change By Sanidhya Sharma edited by Claire Cameron Some 60 years ago scientists documented a coral reef off the coast of Benin in West Africa that they presumed was already dead. But now researchers have rediscovered the coral reef and found it to be a thriving deep-water community. The reef was first flagged when fishing surveys conducted in
