    Intermittent Fasting and Protein Pacing: New Dietary Approaches Linked to a More Diverse Gut Microbiome and Improved Health Outcomes

    Broke On: Wednesday, 29 May 2024 A recent Arizona State University study found that intermittent fasting and protein pacing diets may lead to a more diverse gut microbiome, improved digestive health, and reduced visceral fat compared to a calorie-restricted Mediterranean-style diet. These findings suggest that specific diets could help remodel the gut for better weight control, but larger trials are needed for validation.

    Mystery of Puffy Exoplanet WASP-107b Solved: New Discoveries from JWST and Hubble Reveal Hotter Interior and More Massive Core

    Broke On: Tuesday, 21 May 2024 Scientists, using data from NASA's JWST and Hubble Space Telescope, reveal new insights into the puffy nature of exoplanet WASP-107b. The discovery of a scarcity of methane in its atmosphere indicates a hotter interior and more massive core. Advanced spectroscopic techniques detect carbon-, oxygen-, nitrogen- and sulfur-bearing molecules for the first time in a transiting exoplanet, shedding light on its composition. The high temperature is attributed to tidal heating from its slightly elliptical orbit around its host star.

    Hubble Space Telescope's 34th Birthday: A Closer Look at the Little Dumbbell Nebula and Its Impact on Astronomy

    Broke On: Wednesday, 24 April 2024 On its 34th birthday in 1990, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope observed the Little Dumbbell Nebula, a planetary nebula expanding from a dying red giant star. Despite initial challenges and delays, HST has made over 1.6 million observations of astronomical objects since its launch in 1990, contributing to over 44,000 scientific papers. The Hubble's groundbreaking discoveries paved the way for NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.
