Advanced 3D reconstructions of the comb jelly’s aboral organ reveal a sensory system far more complex than scientists expected. The organ contains a wide variety of specialized cells and is closely linked to the animal’s nerve network, allowing it to coordinate behavior and orientation in the water. Researchers say it may function as a primitive brain-like center. The discovery suggests that centralized nervous systems might have evolved independently in different animal lineages. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/YB4IU3p

Inverted perovskite solar cells offer strong potential for scalable, low-cost solar power, but a hidden interface inside the device has limited their performance and durability. Researchers have now introduced crystal-solvate nanoseeds that guide crystal growth and release solvent in a controlled way during heating, improving film quality at this buried layer. The result is smoother, denser material with better electronic properties and stability. A large mini-module achieved 23.15% efficiency with minimal scaling losses. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/vFW51Dc

Jupiter’s icy moons may have been seeded with the chemical ingredients for life from the very beginning. An international team of scientists modeled how complex organic molecules—essential building blocks for biology—could have formed in the swirling disk of gas and dust around the young Sun and later been carried into Jupiter’s own moon-forming disk. Their results suggest that up to half of the icy material that built moons like Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto may have delivered freshly made organic compounds without being chemically destroyed. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/CRI1mKH

Struggling to fall asleep and stopping breathing at night may be a far riskier combo than previously thought. In a study of nearly a million veterans, researchers found that having both insomnia and sleep apnea dramatically raises the risk of hypertension and heart disease. The two conditions don’t just coexist—they interact in ways that intensify strain on the heart. Addressing sleep problems early could help prevent cardiovascular disease before it starts. from Latest Science News -- ScienceDaily https://ift.tt/1KTEdzw
