Bump it!
In 2014 and 2015, methane emissions spiked from the annual average increase of 0.5 parts per billion (ppb) since the early 2000’s to 10 or more parts per billion. Scientists will be discussing the issue at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) in San Francisco tomorrow.

Echoes detected during a black hole merger that confirmed part of Einstein's theory of relativity could mean there is something at an event horizon, contradicting the same theory. If confirmed, the information would challenge our current assumptions about physics and how black holes are structured, leading to a better understanding of our physical world.

Researchers have created a new material that doesn't just withstand high levels of radiation — it actually gets tougher the more it's exposed to it. Reactors coated with this material could better withstand the extreme effects of nuclear fusion, potentially giving us the ability to stabilize this limitless source of clean energy.
