New Primate Species Discovered in Congo Forest May Already Be Endangered

A team of researchers has described what appears to be a previously unrecognized primate species inhabiting the dense forests of the Congo Basin. The discovery emerged from a combination of field methods: acoustic monitoring captured distinctive canopy calls, a partial photographic record provided visual confirmation, and genetic sequencing of collected

Ultrafast X-rays Reveal Light-to-Motion Chemistry at Atomic Scale

Researchers have demonstrated a powerful new approach to studying light-driven chemical reactions by using ultrafast X-ray pulses to observe molecular motion in real time. The technique captures individual atoms as they move through different stages of a photochemical reaction, effectively creating a atomic-scale movie of how absorbed light energy drives

Blind Stacking Technique Reveals Hidden Space Debris in Geostationary Orbit

Tracking space debris in the geostationary orbit has long posed a challenge for astronomers. Satellites in this orbital band—located roughly 36,000 kilometers above Earth's equator—operate at a pace that makes individual objects difficult to isolate using conventional observation methods. The new "blind stacking"
