Octopi are known for their ink. But can they stay relevant in a paperless world?

When researchers looked at bats’ immune response to the viruses they carry, they found something quite novel. When mammals, including humans, die from a virus, it is usually due to an extreme immune reaction called a cytokine storm. It’s the body’s attempt to save itself, but it can actually do the opposite. Bats, however, are missing the genes that trigger this reaction—they don’t experience a cytokine storm, allowing them to carry the viruses unharmed.
Cytokine storms are quite interesting.

It looks like a thermos for bubble tea, with a separate bubble compartment on top.

How was I to know that this friggin’ movie would become the cultural name for “characters stuck in a variable but repeating time loop” […]

It’s been a great year for science—Curiosity! The Higgs Boson!—and intrepid photographers have been there all along to document it. Narrowing our favorite photos down to just a dozen wasn’t easy, but here they are. Until next year, everybody.
Multi-exposure fencing, cube kites, explosions on the sun and more — something for the whole family!
