But exactly how many? As it turns out, scientists who study whales have almost no idea how much they eat, how much they poop, and what the loss of that poop might have done to ecosystems when whaling companies killed millions of whales over the last 100 years. “We don’t remember how the world once was, because we modified it away from those baselines,” says Nick Pyenson, a paleontologist at the Smithsonian’s Museum of Natural History who studies marine mammals, and coauthor of a new study in Nature that sets out to answer those questions....

One of the biggest Shark vacuum deals we’ve seen is the Shark AI Robot Vacuum with HEPA Self-Empty Base, which is $299.99, down 45 percent from its $549.99 retail price. This robot vacuum is bagless, self-emptying, and the base can hold up to 30 days of dirt. Control the robot vacuum and set cleaning schedules using the SharkClean app. The app includes precision mapping, which lets you select which areas the robot should clean and which to avoid....

This week, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) changed their emergency use authorizations (EUAs) for the bivalent Moderna and Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccines to now include children from 5 years to six months old. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) followed up with its own announcement to expand use of the vaccine to the same age group. The bivalent vaccines were first authorized by the FDA in August for adults and in some teens....

Mechanical propulsion is inefficient at this scale. Instead, we use magnetohydrodynamic propulsion, which takes advantage of the fact that an external magnetic field can push an object by creating a Lorentz force on its electrical circuitry. We operate the device near a magnet—we imagine the patient lying on a magnetic table—and use radio waves to tell the prototype how to use its electrodes. The electrodes send electrical current through the surrounding fluid, creating a net force that moves the device....

4. Wheel Hunching over a ­keyboard can leave you too stiff to achieve basic poses. Rolling the 13-inch Gaiam Cork Yoga Wheel on the floor beneath your back eases your creaky muscles into place. This article was originally published in the Spring 2018 Intelligence issue of Popular Science.

Am I high enough, though? Should someone be saying something? Has it started? Am I ruining things by expecting something to “start”? I came to Field Trip, a psychedelic clinic in midtown Manhattan, to try to vanquish post-traumatic stress disorder resulting from an abusive relationship that ended years ago. Ketamine’s on-label use is for surgical anesthesia, but over the past two decades, neuroscientists and psychiatrists have found it remarkably effective in treating symptoms of depression....

Central to the EV3 puzzle is the central Intelligent Brick. The new model runs on a Linux OS and an ARM9 processor, both of which make the Brick faster and more-easily-hackable than its predecessors. Processor aside, the biggest change on the Brick is the addition of a Bluetooth radio, which allows builders to control their robots via an Android or iOS app. EV3 robots will also be more “sensitive” than they’ve been before....

At the center of the plan multiplying the relatively small force five times—from about 20,000 uniformed personnel to potentially over 100,000 Marines. This force increase is largely accomplished through folding up to eight PLA amphibious brigades, which were Army units responsible for amphibious missions, into the PLANMC order of battle. This expansion will make the PLANMC more of a full spectrum expeditionary force like the Marine Corps in the United States....

25x The Meade Star Navigator NG102 sends sights through glass lenses instead of relying on mirrors, which can add bulk. The relatively low power makes it easy to observe a large swath of sky and even photograph ­celestial scenes with an optional camera adapter. 65x The Orion SpaceProbe 130ST Equatorial Reflector Telescope gathers light through a 5.1-inch aperture and bounces it off a pair of reflectors to the eyepiece. At just 24 pounds with the tripod, it’s svelte enough to take into the field, but big enough to spy nebulae and other distant objects....

It turns out that coastal plants and animals are hitching a ride on the ever-growing deluge of plastic debris and traveling hundreds of miles from shore to create a new kind of ecosystem in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, the largest accumulation of moving plastic debris in the ocean. Researchers identified a host of anemones and other species living within the rubbish, which allows the little creatures to thrive in an otherwise inhospitable environment....

Before the vaccine takes unnecessary heat, it’s important to remember the significant roles that underlying conditions play in the severity of a case of COVID-19 case. Not only was Powell in an older age group, and therefore higher risk, but he had also been battling a serious type of cancer called multiple myeloma at the time of his death. “Please don’t let the death of an American icon become fodder for anti-vax forces that are putting untold millions in danger,” tweeted Ian Sams of the U....

Here’s how the local Kent County News reported the encounter: The object, it turns out, was an autonomous underwater vehicle, or a sea drone, owned by defense giant Northrop Grumman. After the Hass family called the number on the side of the drone, the company picked up their watery robot the very next day. Motherboard identified the specific machine as a Remus 100, built by Norway’s defense giant Konsberg. The Remus series of underwater robots are scouts and patrol units, exploring below the sea, looking for explosive mines and other threats....
