From Cleo Abram. Scientists were shocked to find that one species of ant is CLONING another all on its own. At some point, the Iberian Harvester ant species lost the ability to make its own sterile worker ants. To solve that problem, they started mating with another species, Messer structor, to create hybrid workers. This…

From Cleo Abram. What is 3I/Atlas?? I keep hearing about this ancient alien object speeding toward our Sun… that some scientists say might be “alien technology”… So I emailed one of the world’s most important astrophysicists, Dr. Alex Filippenko, to learn what’s real. And no, it WON’T hit us… but there are nearby asteroids that…

From Cleo Abram. Did you know scientists discovered that Earth and our solar system are inside a weird bubble in space? Our galaxy is normally super crowded with dense clouds of gas and dust.

From Cleo Abram. For the first time ever, scientists have successfully treated Huntington’s disease! In this trial, scientists inserted a virus containing new DNA into the brain that helps neurons destroy dangerous proteins. Their data showed the treatment slowed the progression of the disease down by 75% – and this is just the start! For…

From Cleo Abram. Notice anything weird about this tiger? Its stripes are way darker than a typical tiger! That’s because of a mutation that we’re seeing a LOT of now because of what scientists call the “bottleneck effect”… While this mutation doesn’t seem to hurt the tigers, it could have been a harmful genetic disease……

From Cleo Abram. This chimpanzee is using a STICK to eat termites!
