Using JWST data, astronomers analyzed more than 250 galaxies from the universe’s first 1.5 billion years and found most were chaotic, with gas swirling in all directions. Only a few showed early signs of ordered rotation. The findings reveal how intense star formation and gravitational turbulence gave way to stability, transforming the early universe’s cosmic chaos into today’s elegant spiral galaxies.

Arc Raiders, the upcoming third-person extraction shooter from Embark Studios, combines some of the best ideas of the genre with that hard-to-pin-down online experience to cut through the crowd and stand out.

Apple’s upcoming smartphone lineup could be powered by the A20 series chipsets, built on a 2nm process, according to a tipster. If this is true, it would mark a shift from the current 3nm chipsets, dubbed A19 and A19 Pro, which are seen on the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Next year’s iPhone 18 lineup and iPhone Fold could be the first phones to be powered by the rumoured 2nm A20 and A20 Pro chipsets.

Google says its new Willow quantum chip has achieved a major breakthrough, solving a previously unsolvable algorithm 13,000 times faster than classical supercomputers. The 105-qubit chip powers Google’s quantum supercomputer and achieved record-low error rates. The feat, detailed in Nature, offers verifiable proof of quantum computing’s potential for real-world problem-solving.

The discovery of “rotating crystals” marks a major leap in physics and materials research. These unusual solids, composed of spinning particles, behave almost like living systems—twisting, fragmenting, and rebuilding themselves.

The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed that galaxies in the early universe were far more chaotic and unstable than once believed. A new study shows that gas turbulence and intense star formation disrupted young galaxies, reshaping scientists’ understanding of how galaxies evolved into the structured systems seen today.

Microsoft introduced multiple new features to Copilot on Thursday. The new features were announced as part of the company’s Fall Update event, and it brings a new character dubbed Mico that gives the chatbot a visual presence. Apart from this, the Redmond-based tech giant is also adding a new Copilot Mode in the Edge browser that bring agentic capabilities to the platform.

A stunning new image by Greg Meyer shows the “Raging Baboon Nebula” in Corona Australis, about 500 light-years away. Captured over 13 nights at Starfront Observatory in Texas, the photo reveals a baboon-like face formed by blue reflection nebulae and dark molecular dust.

Cambridge scientists have made a major leap in solar innovation by discovering a quantum effect in an organic molecule, P3TTM. This new material can convert light into electricity with unprecedented efficiency, potentially leading to the next generation of lightweight, flexible, and cost-effective solar power systems.

Using the calcium isotopes of a 150-million-year-old dinosaur’s teeth, the researchers have identified them as fussy eaters. The herbivorous dinosaurs chose their food based on nutrients and textures, not according to their heights.
