A lightweight new X-ray telescope could finally give scientists something they’ve never had before: a complete chemical map of the Moon. Researchers used detailed mission simulations to show that a compact telescope orbiting the Moon could identify key elements across the entire lunar surface, helping reveal how the Moon formed and evolved.

Researchers have finally resolved a key problem in a 100-year-old theory of color, showing that the qualities we perceive in colors are intrinsic to the mathematics of color space itself. The discovery sharpens our understanding of human vision and could lead to more precise color technologies and visualizations.

Researchers have shown that controlled fire whirls can clean up oil spills faster and more cleanly than traditional burning methods. The spinning flames consumed up to 95% of the oil, cut soot emissions by 40%, and could help prevent spills from reaching sensitive marine habitats.

Scientists have proposed a new method for finding tightly bound supermassive black hole pairs by searching for stars that flash repeatedly as their light is magnified by the black holes’ gravity. The timing and brightness of these bursts could provide a unique fingerprint of black holes slowly spiraling toward a future collision.

Octopuses may be even smarter than we thought. Researchers at Dartmouth found that octopuses can learn to use mirrors to locate food hidden behind them—a skill previously seen only in vertebrates like mammals and birds. After training, the animals correctly identified the food’s location about 73% of the time, showing they could use a mirror as a tool rather than simply reacting to a reflection.

Can Apple's new AI glow up put to bed accusations that it's losing an all-important industry race?

Sequoia is just one of the top firms that sells same equity at two different prices.

Tools for Humanity, Sam Altman's identity verification company, is reportedly struggling to generate revenue and will downsize its staff.

The vibe of Apple's 2026 WWDC keynote felt like a spouse proudly listing all the honey-do-list items tackled. One subtle example: the many AI demos of someone standing, phone in hand.

The filing comes a little more than a week after its main rival, Anthropic, also filed to go public, ramping up the race between the two AI firms.

Apple spent much of its WWDC keynote highlighting fixes, performance improvements, and long-requested features before unveiling its upgraded AI-powered Siri, signaling that the company wants users to see AI as just one part of a broader effort to improve its software.

Waymo has acquired a massive 5,500-acre proving ground in Arizona owned by Route 14 Investment Partners LLC, a Delaware shell company associated with Apple, according to documents filed with Maricopa County.

Apple primarily made the case for an improved experience with its longstanding Siri assistant, which like most other announcements had a hefty helping of AI.

Nearly a year after it was announced, Instagram says it's delivering the ability to rearrange the posts in your profile grid.

Apple spending a big chunk of its WWDC keynote on parental controls was surprising for several reasons.

Apple is trying to solve one of Safari's biggest weaknesses with AI. Safari has long lacked the robust library of extensions that its rivals have, mainly due to the stringent development requirements from Apple. But now, Apple is inviting users to essentially vibe-code their own extensions. In a demo shared by Apple, the company showed […]

Every year, Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference gives us a first look at what's coming next to the company's many operating systems.

When Apple put child safety front and center at WWDC on Monday, its stated goal was helping parents fine-tune their kids' online experiences and avoid excessive screen time. But amid a global debate over internet regulation, its latest updates also looked like a defensive move in a brewing fight against Meta and other app developers. […]

OpenAI on Monday checked off a preliminary step in the IPO race that it and rival Anthropic have been competing in for the better part of a year: The company announced it has confidentially submitted a Form S-1 with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, following Anthropic's decision to do the same on June 1st. […]

This year's WWDC keynote was all about AI. But with all the attention on Apple Intelligence and Siri AI, the company breezed by - or neglected to mention - a bunch of cool, smaller features across its new updates. I've rounded up a bunch of them right here. The new operating systems are available in […]

I hope you have a modern Apple Watch or iPad, because otherwise watchOS 27 and iPadOS 27 won't run on your device. Apple often drops support for older devices with its latest software updates, but this year it's culling even more device generations than ever before. Apple is dropping support for at least three generations […]

Apple just announced watchOS 27, the next version of its Apple Watch operating system, introducing support for Siri AI, a redesigned "dynamic" app grid, and improvements to health and fitness tracking. The watchOS 27 update will be available "this fall," according to Apple, though support is notably limited - the new OS will only be […]

Scientists have uncovered a key brain signal that helps us break old habits and adapt when circumstances suddenly change. By watching mice navigate a virtual maze, researchers found that disappointment—when an expected reward failed to appear—triggered a surge of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, making the animals more likely to try a new strategy. When acetylcholine was blocked, the mice became less flexible and were more likely to stick with outdated choices.

What if our biggest idea about reality is built on a hidden misunderstanding? A new philosophical look at space-time challenges the popular view that the past, present, and future all exist together in a timeless "block universe." The argument suggests that physicists may be blurring the difference between things that exist and things that merely occur, creating deep confusion about what space-time actually is.

Ancient grooves on human teeth, once hailed as evidence of tooth-picking, may simply be the result of natural wear, according to a new study of wild primates.
