The rise, the fall and the rebound of cyclic cosmology

Cyclic Cosmology Is Back in the Conversation as New Data Reopens an Old Question

Cyclic cosmology proposes that the universe expands, collapses and begins again.
The idea had fallen out of favor but is gaining renewed attention.
New discussion is being driven in part by DESI’s large-scale mapping of the universe.

EV car

Electric Vehicles Could Become Grid Assets, and Owners Could Get Paid for It

A Delaware pilot monitored four Ford EVs providing power back to the grid through 2025.
Each EV could have earned as much as $3,359 annually at market prices.
Vehicle-to-grid remains limited mainly because of technical and industry coordination challenges.

Grand Canyon origin debate gets a boost from evidence of a late Miocene Colorado River in the Bidahochi basin

The paper title says late Miocene Colorado River arrival in the Bidahochi basin supports a spillover origin of the Grand Canyon.
The available source text is limited to title and citation metadata, so the interpretation here stays close to that wording.
The study appears to add new timing evidence to a long-running geological debate over canyon formation.

Illustration of a black hole with bent jets pulling stellar material away from a giant blue star

Cygnus X-1’s ‘Dancing’ Jets Measured at Half the Speed of Light

Astronomers measured the jets of Cygnus X-1 by mapping their wobble.
The outflows were found to travel at about half the speed of light.
Stellar winds from the black hole’s companion star helped reveal the jets’ motion.
