A tasty RPG that will make you very hungry

Roleplaying games are often defined by excess. Storylines that span dozens of hours, side quests so big they could be their own game, massive worlds that require complex maps to explore, and casts so big you start forgetting character names. That's part of what makes these games

Hidden in Maya wall writings: A named astronomer emerges from 1,200-year-old calculations

Researchers have reconstructed and transcribed a mathematical formula from the site of Xultun, Guatemala, revealing the name of a Maya astronomer for the first time. During the Classic period (250–900 CE), mathematics and astronomy were a key part of Maya society, with complex ca

Piecing the puzzle of how proteins fit together: Simpler model outperforms leading methods

How the proteins in our bodies bind together to form protein complexes plays a critical role in numerous cell functions—staving off diseases, for instance, or transporting ions across cell membranes. A better understanding of how they bind could lead to new medicines and possibly

Scientists find evidence of vast hidden magma systems inside Mars

Researchers from the University of Oxford have uncovered evidence that Mars once hosted enormous, Earth-like magmatic systems deep beneath its surface—despite the planet lacking the plate tectonics long thought necessary for this kind of geological complexity.

Metal hydride molecule trapped with laser light opens path to ultracold hydrogen

Controlling and trapping molecules, units of a substance consisting of two or more chemically bound atoms, with laser light is significantly more challenging than trapping individual atoms. This is because molecules exhibit more complex vibrational and rotational dynamics that ma

Lamprey brain atlas reveals 450-million-year blueprint of vertebrate brains

What did the very first complex vertebrate brain look like? To find out, scientists turned to an unlikely time traveler: the lamprey, a jawless, eel-like fish whose body plan has barely changed in roughly 360 million years.

New research identifies types of dishonesty that occur in a relationship—and their consequ

From "harmless" white lies to infidelity, dishonesty in romantic relationships is a complex phenomenon that takes on many forms. New research from the University of Copenhagen shows that while dishonesty between partners often fuels distrust and resentment, it may also, in some c
