As Dom Koll radio-dated ancient crust samples he stumbled across evidence of a major event in Earth’s history, 10My ago. Nearby supernova? Global shift in ocean currents? An intriguing mystery!

How heavy are neutron stars at birth? A new study has found a new distribution! This could change how we understand supernovae and gravitational waves. We spoke to researcher Simon Stevenson to learn more!

Incredibly sensitive imaging technique, quantum ghost imaging, using a metamaterial 100x thinner than a hair. Jinyong Ma et al from @TMOS_ARC use the power of quantum-entangled photons to see through noisy environments.

Manipulating light with a twist, for working with chiral molecules, eg asymmetric drugs, gets heaps easier thanks to neat insight. No complicated components, use simple ones arranged asymmetrically

AI promises to help scientists do more, faster, with less money. But it brings a host of new concerns, too.
In this article, @NabaviEhsan from @ANU_CPAS asks what the AI transformation will really mean for science: science.anu.edu.au/news-even…
