Scotland, UK:  The Titanic is remembered as “one of the greatest maritime tragedies in history.” Nearly 4,000 meters (13,000 feet) beneath the surface of the North Atlantic Ocean, the Titanic wreck lies in two pieces, slowly deteriorating. Because of a sonar blip that was found 26 years ago, we now know that this underwater area has a lot more going on than we thought. The veteran Nautile submersible pilot and Titanic diver Mr. P.H. Nargeolet found the blip in 1996, but no one knows where it came from. Mr. Nargeolet and four other researchers visited the blip’s previously known location earlier…

Washington, US: Mother nature is offering one last chance to view the glorious “blood moon” as the second total lunar eclipse of the year, the final opportunity to see one until 2025 begins to unravel beautifully. NASA scientists estimate that the moon will be 242,740 miles (390,553 KM) from Earth at that time. The totality of the eclipse will occur from 10.16 to 11.41 AM GMT, or approximately 90 minutes, as Earth moves in front of the moon and sun. Binoculars and telescopes can help observers see more clearly, and they should pray for clear skies. Unfortunately, the majority of…

Zhengzhou, China: Due to a significant reduction in production at a Chinese plant affected by COVID, tech giant Apple expects lower shipments of high-end iPhone 14 models than originally planned, negatively impacting its sales projection for the year-end Christmas season.

Boston, US: Researchers in the US have discovered a gene that appears to raise the risk of Alzheimer’s in females, offering a vital clue to the ongoing studies to understand why more women than men are diagnosed with the disease. O6-Methylguanine-DNA-Methyltransferase, often known as MGMT, is a key player in how both men’s and women’s bodies repair DNA damage. However, no link between MGMT and Alzheimer’s disease in men was discovered by researchers. “It’s a female-specific finding – perhaps one of the strongest associations of a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s in women,” remarked senior study coauthor Lindsay Farrer, chief…
