African mycologists are racing to study and protect fungi, which feed most terrestrial plants and store vast carbon underground. Despite huge biodiversity and few experts, they’re building collections, education and policy so “funga” is conserved alongside flora and fauna.

DESI finished the most detailed 3D map of the Universe, charting 47+ million galaxies. Early results hint dark energy may change over time, challenging the standard cosmology model. Full analysis by 2027–28 could confirm or overturn this potential new physics.

Physicists have resolved the “proton radius puzzle”: new ultra-precise hydrogen experiments confirm a smaller proton size of about 0.84 femtometers. This aligns electron and muon measurements, strongly supports the Standard Model, and rules out hoped‑for new physics here.

Researchers studying sperm whales off Dominica found their click “codas” use vowel-like elements and tonal patterns similar to human languages. This complex, layered structure suggests independently evolved phonology and raises real prospects of partial whale–human communication within years.

Chemists used a plasma “lightning” reactor with a copper-oxide catalyst to convert methane directly into methanol with 97% selectivity, plus hydrogen and ethylene byproducts. This one-step, potentially cleaner process could reduce emissions and energy use versus today’s CO₂-intensive industrial methods.
