Predicted from orbital perturbations before anyone saw it, and home to the fastest winds in the Solar System.
Not cosmic vacuum cleaners but regions where spacetime curves so sharply no path leads out. From theory to the first image in 2019.
A 6.5-metre infrared mirror parked 1.5 million km from Earth to observe the earliest galaxies.
Your brain does not rest while you sleep. It replays, filters and moves the day's learning into long-term storage while clearing metabolic waste.
Two lines of defence: one reacts instantly to anything foreign, the other is slower but learns and remembers. Vaccines work through the second.
Gut bacteria digest fibre, make vitamins and talk to the immune system and brain. But the gap between correlation and causation here is still wide.
It is not just about calories. Regular training thickens ventricular walls, raises stroke volume, improves endothelial function and lowers resting blood pressure.
From two simple postulates, Einstein derived slowed clocks, contracted lengths, and mass as a form of energy.
A bacterial immune mechanism turned into a precise, cheap and fast gene-editing tool - now an approved therapy.
