Helioseismology study reveals sun's magnetic activity shifting closer to surface across recent cycles, potentially making space weather harder to predict.

New study maps 424 stellar objects within 10 parsecs, revealing that most stars have companions while our sun remains unusually alone in space.

Research suggests diets high in added sugar may strain the hippocampus, disrupt insulin signaling, and fuel inflammation, potentially weakening memory over time. Cutting sugary drinks and ultra-processed snacks can support better brain health.

Fossil teeth and arm bones suggest human right-handedness began deep in evolution, linking ancient tool use, social learning, and brain specialization long before modern life.
