Neuroscience says memory can reconstruct the past, but what if it can also sometimes build the future? If time is like a river, perhaps consciousness is a boat that drifts upstream, carrying fragments of tomorrow disguised as déjà vu. Is it really possible to remember the future?

What happens when we die? This spiritual question has haunted humanity since the dawn of thought. Yet despite centuries of soul-searching, the mystery of consciousness remains unsolved.

A cosmic mytery is unfolding in real-time. 3I/ATLAS is not just a comet. For astrophysicists who have been following its nearing trajectory since 1st July 2025, it is a question mark.

The Universe is vast – and strangely, half-empty. For decades, cosmologists have wrestled with the “missing baryon problem”, a puzzling deficit of ordinary matter…

Once vast and shimmering lakes, some of the World’s greatest inland seas are now vanishing before our eyes. This is not just a story of receding shorelines, but a planetary warning.

In the classical world of materials science, metals are well-behaved. Their electrons follow predictable rules, their resistivity scales with temperature in a quadratic fashion, and their behaviour is neatly captured by Fermi liquid theory. But in the quantum realm…

For billions of years, the Earth has remained relatively stable within our solar system. However, astrophysical simulations do suggest that this tranquility may not last forever.

At some point, we’ve all heard about time dilation – every sci-fi fan among us in particular. And yet, moving clocks DO slow down. This is not a fiction fantasy. It’s a little thing called Special Relativity.

Our Earth is constantly bombarded with high energy particles and cosmic rays. These charged particles interact with the atoms in atmospheric gases, producing a cascade of secondary particles. And you can use those for dating rocks!
