Continent-Sized Blobs Under Africa and the Pacific Are Different Ages, and Theia’s Debris May Still Sit on Earth’s Core
Large low-shear-velocity provinces under Africa and the Pacific are not twins. 2025 and 2026 papers split the origin between recycled seafloor, a billion years of stillness, and possible Theia debris.

Cold Beer Tastes More Like Ethanol Because Chain-Like Clusters Take Over Near 41 Degrees
A Matter study mapped the ethanol-water clusters that make beer taste more alcoholic near 41°F, while warmed baijiu moves the other way. Later spectra say the mixture may not even…
