In Augsburg, Germany, you can live in a real-life medieval village for less than a euro a year. The Fuggerei, founded in 1521 by wealthy banker Jakob Fugger, is the world’s oldest social housing complex still in use.
Residents pay around ~$1.00 a year and follow simple community rules including volunteering and daily reflection. The walled village survived wars, bombings, and centuries of rising rents, yet it still houses 160 people who might otherwise be priced out of the city.
With its cheerful yellow terrace houses, locked gates at night, and a steady stream of tourists, the Fuggerei isn’t just a home, it’s a living lesson in history, generosity, and the power of affordable housing.

In a historic legal move, a New York court has made dogs official “immediate family members” in a case involving emotional distress.
This groundbreaking decision comes after a woman witnessed her dog being struck and k**led by a car while leashed to her body. For the first time, the court allowed a negligent infliction of emotional distress claim for the death of a pet, something previously reserved for human relatives.
While the ruling is under appeal and remains specific to this case, it raises big questions about how the law views the bond between humans and animals. But not everyone’s on board; veterinary groups are concerned that recognizing pets in this way could lead to higher liability costs and even impact veterinary care prices.
As this case progresses, it’s pushing us to rethink how we value the relationship between people and their pets.

Japanese researchers at the University of Tokyo have created contact lenses that give users night vision without batteries, wires, or external cameras.
The lenses use graphene-based sensors to detect infrared light, the kind of heat emitted by humans and warm objects, and convert it into visuals directly on the retina. They’re ultrathin, flexible, and powered by body heat and blinking motion.
Early tests show wearers can spot people, hidden objects, and heat leaks even in total darkness. Beyond night vision, the tech could help doctors see blood vessels or inflammation without invasive tools, opening the door to a whole new level of enhanced sight.

Science has just confirmed what dog lovers have always known deep down, your dog loves you more than food!
A groundbreaking fMRI study by neuroscientist Gregory Berns at Emory University has shown that when dogs smell their owners, the caudate nucleus in their brain, which controls joy, reward, and affection, lights up more than when they smell food or even other dogs.
This means your scent doesn’t just feel familiar to them; it triggers an emotional response tied to love and bonding. It’s official, you’re not just a caretaker to your dog; you’re family!

A new toothpaste made from human hair protein could actually rebuild your tooth enamel and stop decay in its tracks.
Scientists at King’s College London have developed a keratin-based formula from human hair and wool that forms a dense, enamel-like coating on teeth. Lab tests show it not only restores lost enamel but also seals nerve channels, reducing sensitivity and protecting against further erosion.
Unlike fluoride, which just slows enamel loss, this protein-packed toothpaste actively repairs damage and offers a natural, eco-friendly alternative to traditional dental resins. It could hit shelves in as little as two years as a daily toothpaste or professional gel treatment, turning everyday hair and wool waste into a revolutionary dental solution

Crown shyness is a strange and beautiful phenomenon where the tops of certain trees avoid touching each other, creating narrow gaps in the forest canopy.
While the exact reason is still debated, scientists believe it may help trees reduce damage from branches colliding in the wind, prevent the spread of pests, or allow more sunlight to reach lower leaves and the forest floor.
The result is a striking, puzzle-like pattern overhead, almost like the trees are giving each other personal space.

A single dose of an experimental cell therapy caused a woman’s aggressive brain tumor to nearly disappear in just five days. At Mass General Cancer Center, three patients with glioblastoma, one of the deadliest and most treatment-resistant cancers, saw their tumors shrink within days of one infusion.
One tumor vanished almost completely, another dropped by over 60% and stayed that way for six months. The treatment reprograms a patient’s own immune cells to attack multiple targets inside the tumor at once, a breakthrough for cancers that usually dodge single-target therapies.
While the tumors eventually returned, the rapid and dramatic results are unlike anything researchers have seen before, and scientists are now racing to make the effect last and maybe one day cure this devastating disease

Scientists exploring the radioactive ruins of Chernobyl have uncovered a surprising survivor: fungi that don’t just survive radiation, they thrive on it.
Species like Cladosporium sphaerospermum and Cryptococcus neoformans use a process called radiosynthesis to convert dangerous gamma rays into energy, thanks to the melanin in their cells. These fungi even grow toward radiation, tolerating levels hundreds of times higher than normal.
Researchers are now looking at how these radiation-eating organisms could help clean up contaminated sites on Earth or protect astronauts from cosmic radiation on long space missions. The discovery shows just how adaptable life can be and hints at some wild possibilities for environmental science and space exploration.

Fungi might look like quiet forest dwellers, but new research suggests they could be secret communicators.
Scientists at the University of the West of England found that electrical signals traveling through fungal networks show patterns surprisingly similar to human speech.
By inserting tiny microelectrodes into the mycelia of enoki, split gill, ghost, and caterpillar fungi, researchers discovered clusters of spikes that form “vocabularies” of up to 50 words.
Split gills, which grow on decaying wood in wavy coral-like formations, produced the most complex “sentences.” These electrical bursts may help fungi coordinate growth, share information about food sources, or simply maintain their network’s integrity.
While the idea of talking fungi is exciting, scientists caution that more research is needed before calling it a true language. Even so, the discovery opens a fascinating window into how life communicates in ways we are only beginning to understand

In Hong Kong, a new light sensor technology is revolutionizing street lighting. Street lamps now feature smart sensors that detect the movement of pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles.
When the streets are empty, the lights automatically dim to save energy, and as soon as someone approaches, they brighten instantly to ensure safety. This system not only cuts down on electricity use but also helps reduce carbon emissions and operational costs.
Hong Kong’s dense population has traditionally led to high energy consumption for street lighting, but with motion-activated lights, the city is making strides toward a more sustainable future without sacrificing safety.
Additionally, the dimming feature helps reduce light pollution, protecting the natural night sky and minimizing glare. This innovative approach is part of Hong Kong’s larger smart city efforts, combining energy efficiency and digital technology to create a more livable, eco-friendly urban environment

In a wild twist of fate, Diesel the donkey has been found living among a herd of wild elk near Cache Creek in Northern California, four years after going missing.
Back in 2019, Diesel bolted from the trail during a hike, and despite an extensive search by his owners, Terrie and Dave Drewry, they eventually gave up hope. Fast forward to 2024, and hunter Max Fennell captured footage of a donkey grazing alongside more than ten elk.
When the video went viral, the Drewrys instantly recognized Diesel, confirming it was him, as wild donkeys aren’t found in that area. Diesel, now healthy and thriving, has fully integrated into the elk herd, grazing with them and even acting as a protector against predators like coyotes and mountain lions

Blue whales are going quiet, and it’s raising major concerns among researchers. A recent study from Cornell University’s K. Lisa Yang Center for Conservation Bioacoustics found that blue whale songs have dropped by nearly 40% in recent decades.
These songs are crucial for communication, mating, and navigation, so this decline is alarming. Scientists suggest that the quieter whales are a result of starvation and ecosystem disruption caused by warming oceans and shrinking krill populations.
With less energy to spend on vocalizing, these changes might be a sign of a broader environmental crisis in our oceans.

A fascinating find for cheese lovers and history buffs alike: the University of Leeds has transcribed an English book on cheese that dates back to the 1580s!
The book, titled A pamflyt compiled of Cheese, was purchased at auction in 2023 and offers some unexpected rules about cheese consumption.
For example, the author warns that drinking dog’s milk could cause premature birth (yikes!). Camel, mare, and donkey milk cheeses, on the other hand, seem acceptable, but human milk definitely isn’t on the menu.
The book also discusses the best time to eat cheese (at the end of a meal for optimal digestion) and whether it’s okay to eat during religious events, considering the use of animal rennet.
This text is one of the earliest known studies on cheese, looking at its effects on the body and when and how it should be consumed. Food historian Peter Brears even called it “probably the first comprehensive academic study of a single foodstuff written in the English language.”

Scientists may have found a surprising new starting point for Parkinson’s disease. A study from Wuhan University suggests that the kidneys, not the brain, could be where the trouble begins.
Researchers discovered clusters of alpha-synuclein proteins in the kidneys of Parkinson’s patients. Experiments in animals showed that healthy kidneys could clear these proteins, but when kidneys malfunctioned, the proteins built up and traveled to the brain, causing damage.
The study also spotted protein buildup in people with chronic kidney disease even when there were no brain symptoms, hinting that the kidneys could be an early hotspot for the disease. While still early research, this could change how scientists approach Parkinson’s prevention and treatment

Princeton researchers recently discovered that human brains emit ultra-low-frequency electromagnetic waves that link into a global neural network.
These signals are capable of subtly influencing other people’s brains from up to 10,000 kilometers away, suggesting human consciousness may be quietly interconnected across the planet.
This finding builds on a growing body of research showing that our brains communicate not only through neurons but also through weak electromagnetic fields. Some studies suggest these fields could play a role in empathy, intuition, and synchronized behavior in groups.
Experiments have even hinted that when one person focuses or meditates, nearby or even distant individuals may show small changes in brainwave patterns, hinting at a hidden layer of human connection we’re just beginning to understand

Over 200 years ago, people believed tetanus was a sign of demonic possession because patients would convulse, stiffen, and arch their bodies in extreme ways.
Back then, no one knew the real culprit was a bacterium called Clostridium tetani, which attacks the nervous system and triggers painful muscle spasms.
By the 19th century, scientists uncovered the true cause and swapped the supernatural theory for real science.

The babirusa, found in Indonesia, is one of the strangest pigs you’ll ever hear about. What sets it apart are its massive tusks, which grow straight up through the top of its snout and then curve backwards toward its head like twisted horns.
These tusks aren’t used for digging or fighting, in fact, scientists still debate their true purpose. If the tusks don’t break or get worn down naturally, they can keep growing until they actually pierce the babirusa’s own skull. That means this animal can be fatally injured by its own teeth. It’s one of nature’s weirdest (and most unfortunate) design flaws

In a groundbreaking development, scientists are considering removing a second from global clocks in 2029 due to Earth’s increasing rotation speed.
Since 2020, the planet has been spinning slightly faster, shortening the length of a day by about 1.5 milliseconds. This may not sound like much, but over time, these small changes add up.
If the trend continues, it could lead to the first-ever “negative leap second,” essentially reversing the leap seconds that are occasionally added to account for irregularities in Earth’s rotation.
While the need for a negative leap second is not guaranteed, it reflects a fascinating shift in how we measure time. If it happens, it will be a milestone in our understanding of Earth’s mechanics and how human timekeeping interacts with natural forces.

A Tokyo-based tech company has announced a groundbreaking achievement: the creation of the world’s first drone capable of triggering and guiding lightning strikes. This innovative drone reportedly works like a flying lightning rod, drawing electricity from thunderclouds while remaining airborne, with minimal damage to its structure. While these claims are still unverified, the technology could have significant implications for protecting cities and infrastructure from lightning-related damage.
Every minute, approximately 6,000 lightning strikes hit the Earth, wreaking havoc by sparking fires, triggering explosions, and causing power surges that damage electrical systems. While lightning rods provide some protection, this drone aims to offer a more advanced solution. In December 2024, the drone successfully flew into a storm in Japan’s Shimane prefecture, attaching itself to a conductive wire that triggered a lightning strike. Despite its protective covering melting, the drone kept flying.
The concept of using technology to attract lightning isn’t new—scientists have tested lasers for this purpose—but the NTT group’s drone uses a Faraday cage to protect it from the electrical damage. Although the company envisions using drones to safely guide lightning away from infrastructure, they’re also exploring the possibility of harnessing lightning’s power for energy—though this remains theoretical for now. If proven successful, the drone could be a game-changer in lightning protection and energy innovation.
