Astronomers have published a gigantic infrared map of the Milky Way containing more than 1.5 billion objects ― the most detailed one ever made. Using the European Southern Observatory’s VISTA telescope, the team monitored the central regions of our Galaxy over more than 13 years. At 500 terabytes of data, this is the largest observational project ever carried out with an ESO telescope. “We made so many discoveries, we have changed the view of our Galaxy forever,” says Dante Minniti, an astrophysicist at Universidad Andrés Bello in Chile who led the overall project. This image shows the regions of the Milky Way mapped by the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) survey and its companion project, the VVV eXtended survey (VVVX). The total area covered is equivalent to 8600 full moons...

Red Bull Wingsuiter Sebastián Álvarez makes history by transitioning from one super adventure to another Chilean wingsuit flyer Sebastián Álvarez has made history by successfully transitioning from a BASE jump to a parachute swoop and into surfing the world's longest artificial wave at Surf Abu Dhabi. With a modified surfboard attached to his feet, Álvarez leaped from a Bell helicopter at 3,657 meters (12,000 feet) over Hudayriyat Island. He 'sky-surfed' down, expertly swooping with his parachute to line up with the wave before cutting away the chute to land precisely on a 2.3-meter (7.5-foot) wave produced by the world's most advanced artificial wave technology.

The head brewmaster for Weihenstephan, the world’s oldest brewery, has a secret: He really likes alcohol-free beer. Even though he’s quick to say he obviously enjoys real beer more, Tobias Zollo says he savors alcohol-free beer when he’s working or eating lunch. It has the same taste but fewer calories than a soft drink, he said, thanks to the brewery’s process of evaporating the alcohol. “You can’t drink beer every day — unfortunately,” he joked last week at the Bavarian state brewery in the German town of Freising, about 30 kilometers (20 miles) north of Munich. Zollo isn’t alone in his appreciation for the sober beverage. Alcohol-free beer has been gaining popularity in recent years as beer consumption shrinks. At Weihenstephan, which was founded as a brewery in 1040 by...

Sixty-year-old British adventurer Neil Laughton has set a new record for the highest-altitude cycle ride after pedalling a fold-up bike on top of a 7,246-metre Nepalese peak. Laughton, a former Royal Marine Commando, rode and carried his Brompton bike to the snowbound summit of Putha Huinchuli over several days alongside Sherpa Nima Kanchla. Neil Laughton and his Nepali climbing partner Sirdar Nima Kanchha Sherpa at the summit of a Himalayan mountain. He then completed a short cycle ride to beat the previous world record set at 7,211 metres in 2009. "To get the Guinness World Record I had to cycle 20 metres (at the highest point)," Laughton told Cycling Weekly. "At the top there was lots of deep snow so it was hard to get any great momentum particularly while we were near t...

In the gateway to the Arctic, fat, ice and polar bears are crucial. All three are in trouble Searching for polar bears where the Churchill River dumps into Canada’s massive Hudson Bay, biologist Geoff York scans a region that’s on a low fat, low ice diet because of climate change. And it’s getting lower on polar bears. A polar bear cub walks along rocks toward its mother, Wednesday, Aug. 7, 2024, near Churchill, Manitoba. (AP Photo/Joshua A. Bickel) There are now about 600 polar bears in the Western Hudson Bay, one of the most threatened of the 20 populations of the white beasts. That’s about half the number of 40 years ago, says York, senior director of research and policy at Polar Bears International. His latest study, with a team of scientists from various fields, shows tha...
