However, a new study suggests that houses within a few miles of manicured fairways and greens may not be such hot property after all. There's more research that the upkeep of these green spaces poses a significant neurological health risk.

When the Silverado EV was first announced, it felt like a hurried push to play catchup with Ford’s Lightning. I thus assumed that it’d be a bedazzled version of the gas truck. Surprisingly, though, the Silverado EV has very little in common with the Silverado combustion models.

Back in 2014, we heard about a so-called "fish gun" or "salmon cannon" that safely shot spawning fish up over river-blocking obstacles such as dams. Its successor has since entered use, most recently allowing herring to bypass a spillway for the first time in 80 years.

Everyone’s seen Rudolph Zallinger’s “The March of Progress” illustration showcasing the evolution of humans: from early primate ape ancestor, Dryopithecus, and progressing toward modern man, Homo sapiens. Evolution is a fascinating phenomenon, but it doesn’t necessarily always follow a straight path as portrayed by Zallinger.

Several centuries ago, a branch of alchemy called chrysopoeia is said to have explored the possibilities of transforming widely available base metals into precious metals. Early practitioners never managed to pull it off, but it appears that in studying the conditions that emerged just after the Big Bang using the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), scientists have turned lead into gold – for just fractions of a second.
