The morning was already hot and humid as the divers jumped off the boat and descended into blue-green waters off the Florida Keys. With them, they carried dozens of living coral polyps, each tiny animal about to find a permanent home on the reef. About 25 feet down, they reached a section of the world’s third largest barrier reef, which stretched out like a rocky moonscape, mostly gray and barren. A few sea fans waved gently with the current,……

EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — Olympic champion Athing Mu’s hopes for a repeat came crashing down on the backstretch of the first lap of the 800-meter final at U.S. track trials Monday.

Getting into a canoe is unnerving. Failure means capsizing, plus looking foolish in front of that cute camp counselor. But as you wobble aboard, know you’re not alone. Even the experts dump their boats from time to time. “I’ve flipped over completely in six inches of water trying to board my kayak,” says retired park ranger and marine biologist Kristie Killam. “Even though I think I know what I’m doing, it can still be daunting.” Below are practical steps……

Millions of Americans prepared to sweat through yet another scorching day, with the potential for rolling storms later Sunday to bring relief from the sweltering heat for at least some. Floodwaters inundated parts of the Midwest, including a town in Iowa evacuated after being submerged up to the rooftops.

A new MIT course this spring asked students to design what humans might need to comfortably work in and inhabit space. The time for these creations is now. While the NASA Apollo missions saw astronauts land on the moon, collect samples, and return home, the missions planned under Artemis, NASA’s current moon exploration program, include establishing long-term bases in orbit as well as on the surface of the moon. The cross-disciplinary design course MAS.S66/4.154/16.89 (Space Architectures) was run in……

Professor Emerita Mary-Lou Pardue, an influential faculty member in the MIT Department of Biology, died on June 1. She was 90.

This led to many discoveries, including critical advancements in developmental biology, our understanding of embryonic development, and the structure of chromosomes. She also studied the remarkably complex way organisms respond to stress, such……

The impact of artificial intelligence will never be equitable if there’s only one company that builds and controls the models (not to mention the data that go into them). Unfortunately, today’s AI models are made up of billions of parameters that must be trained and tuned to maximize performance for each use case, putting the most powerful AI models out of reach for most people and companies. MosaicML started with a mission to make those models more accessible. The……

Everyone knows about the ocean’s flashier builders—the corals that sculpt reefs, the mollusks that spin up perfect pearls. But thousands of feet down, underappreciated creatures called xenophyophores work hard to build themselves some of the most fascinating homes on the seafloor, from studio apartments to elaborate, multichambered compounds that resemble morel mushrooms……

WASHINGTON (AP) — Ukraine’s military is allowed to use longer-range missiles provided by the U.S. to strike targets inside Russia across more than just the front lines near Kharkiv if it is acting in self-defense, the Pentagon said. President Joe Biden initially loosened the restrictions on how Ukraine could use U.S.-provided munitions to give it another option to defend the eastern city of Kharkiv from a relentless barrage of Russian missiles.

Kangiten is a strange deity. The Japanese Buddhist equivalent of Hindu god Ganesha, he also takes the form of an elephant-headed deity, but in twofold, in an act of embrace. Traditionally, the deity is feared and respected as a remover of obstacles and bringer of success. His effigy (if any), however, is always enshrined in the temple treasury never to be shown to worshippers. This is believed to be due to the sensual depiction of the embracing deities, and……
