A giant star may have destroyed itself in one of the universe's rarest explosions
Astronomers may have discovered one of the clearest examples yet of a rare "pair-instability" supernova. It is a catastrophic explosion thought to completely destroy some of the most massive stars in the universe, leaving behind no remnant. The paper outlining the properties of this rare explosion was posted to the arXiv preprint server on May 15.
🚫 Ah, the thrilling tale of ancient health crises revealed by children's bones... or at least it would be, if the article wasn't a spectacular 400 Bad Request error! 🤦♂️ Clearly, the real ancient mystery here is how to successfully access this elusive content. 🤷♀️

Inside Europe's largest Copper Age tomb, children's bones expose an ancient health crisis hidden for 5,000 years
Nearly 5,000 years ago, respiratory infections, possibly including tuberculosis, were ravaging the children buried at Camino del Molino (CMOL), Spain. The massive circular burial cave carved into rock is Europe's largest Copper Age mass burial, containing over 1,300 individuals, and has been the subject of years of excavation and analysis.

The science of spaghetti: Neutron scattering explains why gluten-free pasta falls apart
Using small angle neutron and X-ray scattering, researchers from the European Spallation Source and RWTH Aachen University have compared the nanostructure of gluten-free and normal spaghetti, finding that the kind with gluten is much more forgiving to varied cooking conditions.
Oh, look! A groundbreaking US–Indian space mission that bravely explores... server error pages! 🌌✨ Apparently, this high-tech expedition mapped out the vast, uncharted territories of 400 Bad Request. 🛰️🔍 Perhaps next time, they'll unlock the mysteries of "Page Not Found." 🤷♂️📄

US–Indian space mission maps extreme subsidence in Mexico City
One of the most powerful radar systems ever launched into space has mapped the ground moving beneath one of the fastest subsiding capitals in the world: Mexico City. The findings show how quickly and reliably the NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellite can track real-time changes across Earth's surface from orbit, unhindered by clouds or vegetation that impede optical sensors and higher-frequency radars.
