There were lots of ideas about what we might see, but the Universe is full of surprises. One of the first surprises was the existence of what picked up the moniker "little red dots," which
The science section covers breakthroughs in medicine, physics, biology, and technology. We surface discoveries that expand what humanity can do, from new treatments reaching clinical trials to engineering feats that seemed impossible a decade ago.
