It appears just like any other gentoo penguin. White belly, black back, that orange beak. It swims through the icy Southern Ocean in the same manner, returns annually to the same nesting location, and raises chicks that, to any sensible observer, are utterly indistinguishable from those nurtured on islands more than a thousand miles away.

Researchers at Penn State have now undertaken something quite unique with it: they’ve modified […]

When Isaac Newton participated in a discussion with Robert Hooke in 1679 regarding Hooke’s theory on planetary motion, it reignited his interest in a subject he had briefly investigated around 1664. Newton devised a swift demonstration, illustrating how forces vary inversely with the square of the distance at the two apsides of an ellipse. However, […]
