Research indicates that Ceres, initially believed to be rocky, is predominantly icy, challenging earlier views. The findings reveal its potential past as a muddy ocean world, with simulations supporting the presence of a strong ice crust.

Mars’ ancient hydrothermal systems may hold the key to understanding its potential for harboring life. These environments, where heat and water interact, are widely regarded as essential for fostering the conditions necessary for life’s development. For decades, scientists have sought to uncover the origins, distribution, and persistence of these systems...
A new analysis of neuroimaging data has found that individuals with Alzheimer’s disease who speak only one language (monolinguals) have reduced hippocampal volume in the brain. This reduction was not observed in individuals who speak at least two languages (bilinguals). The research was published in Bilingualism: Language and Cognition. Alzheimer’s...
