🔬 Ancient Solar Storms, Supernova Debris & the Drug Combo Quietly Failing Roadside Tests

from 🎙️ Science News Daily | Peer Review'd · host Peer Review'd

Scientists have uncovered hidden pockets of warm water melting Antarctic ice shelves from below, suggesting sea levels could rise far faster than current models predict. A Johns Hopkins study confirms that mixing cannabis edibles with alcohol dramatically impairs drivers — and standard roadside sobriety tests largely can't detect it. Researchers found that a single dose of psilocybin causes measurable physical changes in the brain lasting up to a month, while a stem cell breakthrough in stroke recovery is rewriting what scientists thought possible. Ancient Antarctic ice has revealed traces of a rare radioactive isotope that can only come from supernova explosions, suggesting our Solar System is drifting through the remnants of a long-dead star. From a newly discovered snake species to a 100-year tire mystery finally solved, today's episode is packed with discoveries that are quietly reshaping what we know about life, the universe, and everything in between.Subscribe to Peer Review'd Newsletter: https://peerreviewd.com/Love Science?
