A figure in red trudges across a blanket of white. Snow squeaks under the scientist's feet, too dry to be slick or soft. Only a line of flags and a few large buildings—the scientist's destination—break up the landscape. The sun hovers on the horizon, never quite setting against a blue sky devoid of clouds.

A surprising new discovery suggests that some dead stars can grow far more massive than scientists once thought possible. Computer simulations show that powerful magnetic fields could allow white dwarfs to reach 2.4 times the mass of the Sun, dramatically exceeding a famous limit that has stood for decades. The findings could help explain unusually bright supernova explosions that have long puzzled astronomers.

Turns out these remnants of dying stars are not all white – a new study finds that they can come in a wide array of colors, from salmon pink to chartreuse.

It's no secret that American politics is dominated by older politicians. When 81-year-old Joe Biden withdrew from the 2024 presidential race amid concerns about his age, it was the then-78-year-old Donald Trump who ultimately entered the White House. The median age in the House of Representatives and the Senate was 58 and 65, respectively, while the average American was just 39 years old.

Should an area be fenced off, should animals be sterilized or relocated—or, as a last resort, selectively culled? As the long-running controversy over white-tailed deer in the Montreal suburb of Longueuil's Michel-Chartrand Park has shown, managing wildlife in peri-urban parks isn't just about the science. Emotions, trust and how decisions are communicated also play a role.

Whether it's gushing from a bumped nose or pooling atop a pricked finger, our blood is some hue of red. But red-bloodedness isn't universal in the animal kingdom. In some creatures, the vital fluid is purple; in others it's yellow, green or even white.

White Vision, Hex Vision, and Ultron all converge in this spirited new superhero series.

Guided by the beam of a flashlight, Tino Marolo follows his dog Stella through the darkness of a Piedmont woodland, searching for one of Italy's most prized culinary treasures hidden beneath the soil.

The astronauts of NASA's Artemis III mission met with President Trump at the White House on Wednesday (Oct. 28), just as the Artemis II spaceflyers did six months ago.

A new Finnish study reveals that just 30 minutes in a sauna can temporarily flood the bloodstream with additional white blood cells, potentially helping the immune system patrol the body and detect threats. The surprising response resembles the immune boost seen during exercise and may help explain some of the health benefits linked to sauna bathing.

In this excerpt from "Killing the Dead," author John Blair looks at how the printed press ramped up tales of vampirism, leading to stories of people eating a supposed vampire's organs and drinking their blood in a bid to avoid the same fate.
