He’s back. Prince Pentawere, a man who tried (probably successfully) to murder his own father, Pharaoh Ramesses III, and later took his own life after he was put on trial, is now on public display at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Pentawere’s mummy, popularly known as the “screaming mummy,” was not properly mummified. No embalming fluid was used, and his body was allowed to naturally mummify, with his mouth agape and his facial muscles strained in order to make it appear as if the mummy were screaming. Whether he died screaming or whether he was made to look like that after death…

The first-ever comprehensive study of mummified children in Sicily’s famous Capuchin Catacombs is being led by Staffordshire University. Dr. Kirsty Squires, ᴀssociate Professor of Bioarchaeology, and her team have been given exclusive access to a previously unstudied collection of children’s mummies housed in the underground cemetery of the Capuchin Convent in Palermo. The Catacombs contain the largest collection of mummies in Europe, with over 1,284 mummified and skeletonized bodies dating from the late sixteenth to early twentieth century. Children were accepted in the Catacombs from 1787 but while extensive research has been conducted on the mummified adults, the juvenile mummies…

Evidence for two pairs of supermassive black holes in dwarf galaxies on collision courses has been found with Chandra. The two pairs are shown in X-rays from Chandra and optical light from the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope. The merger on the left is in a late stage and was given the single name of Mirabilis. The other merger is in the early stages and the two dwarf galaxies are named Elstir (bottom) and Vinteuil (top). Astronomers think that dwarf galaxies – those about 20 times less massive than the Milky Way – grow through mergers with others. This is an important process…

Black holes are powerful power plants in space. They give quasars and other active galactic nuclei the energy they need to shine (AGNs). This is because of how matter and its huge gravitational and magnetic forces work together. Technically, a black hole doesn’t have a magnetic field, but the dense plasma that makes up the accretion disc around it does. As plasma spirals around a black hole, the charged particles inside it create an electric current and a magnetic field. Since the direction of plasma flow doesn’t change on its own, it’s likely that the magnetic field is pretty stable.…

Over the last decade, the NBA has seen a steep increase in offense and scoring. It seems that every other night, a different player sets their new career-high for points scored in a game or every season, their new career-high for PPG. Obviously, the increase in three-point shooting and the spacing on the court is a big reason for the increase in scoring, as are the lackadaisical rules that favor offense in this day and age. Today, we will discuss the players over the last 10 seasons who have scored the most in the NBA. These are the superstars who…

The Chicago Bulls franchise is one of the most accomplished in NBA history. Their 6 NBA titles are 4th all-time, as the franchise has never experienced a loss in the NBA Finals, mainly thanks to the presence of Michael Jordan. No doubt, Jordan is the greatest player in Chicago Bulls’ history and the greatest player of all time. When looking at the all-time greatest lineup of the Bulls, Michael has to be included because he has meant more to the franchise (and the NBA) than anyone else. But who else joins him in the all-time Chicago Bulls lineup, taking one…

The Los Angeles Lakers are set to welcome the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first play-in game of the Western Conference on Tuesday. The Lakers will be heavy favorites but LeBron James knows it won’t be easy and he explained the challenges they’ll face defensively in the game. “That’s a challenge versus everybody, and Minnesota is no different,” James said. “When you got guys like KAT (Karl-Anthony Towns) and Anthony Edwards, those guys can both go for 40 against you and put multiple pressure on you. You got a very cerebral, solid point guard in Mike Conley who’s been in multiple playoff games.…

The Los Angeles Lakers have officially clinched the 7th seed in the Western Conference, after a season where many expected them to falter and potentially be in the lottery. They started this season 2-10, and it is clear that they have managed to turn things around. After the Lakers beat the Utah Jazz to clinch the 7th seed, LeBron James sent a touching message to all of his teammates. He claimed that he loves this squad, adding that he “fell in love with them even more” while he was out. “I love my teammates. I fell in love with them even more when I…

Researchers from SISSA have identified the main properties of a mysterious, distant celestial object using the ALMA interferometer. The young, compact galaxy is forming stars 1000 times faster than the Milky Way, and the study offers valuable insights into galaxy formation and the study of other “dark” celestial bodies. A mysterious and very distant object, in a universe as it was ‘just’ two billion years after the Big Bang, that hides from even the most advanced instruments. Its features have finally been described by a SISSA study published in The Astrophysical Journal. An extremely remote celestial body in a still young Universe, one-sixth…

Jamie and Skyler Scott tied the knot in 2004 and welcomed their first child, Shayden, in 2005. A few years later, Jamie gave birth to Landon, her second son. The couple frantically attempted to have another child for five years.   Credit for images goes to FiveTwoLove. They sought out a fertility specialist, and during the second round of treatment, they struck gold — though perhaps not in the manner that everyone expected. At just 19 weeks, Jamie already appeared nine months expectant! Her bulge had grown so rapidly that she was unable to walk and required a wheelchair to…

One couple had the biggest shock of their lives when they discovered that their newborn child was not of the anticipated gender. As Kim Guiley was carrying her second child, she was certain that it was a girl. When she gave birth to a baby boy, she and her husband, Travis, were, to say the least, surprised. Susannah Gill, a birth photographer, photographed the moment the Guileys discovered their child’s gender. The emotions on their faces in the photographs can only be described as priceless.  Photo credits: Susannah Gill-Photographic Storytelling   Photo credits: Susannah Gill-Photographic Storytelling   Photo credits: Susannah…

Archaeologists in Croatia have unearthed the fossilised remains of a Roman chariot buried along with two horses as part of a burial ritual. A large burial chamber for an ‘extremely wealthy family’ was found in which the carriage with what appears to be two horses had been lain. The horses’ remains and the chariot were all buried together in what appears to have been a ritual reserved for very wealthy families Archaeologists from the City Museum Vinkovci and Institute of Archaeology from Zagreb discovered the Roman carriage on two wheels (known in Latin as a cisium) with horses at the…

Discovering ancient burial sites can often reveal fascinating insights into the lives of our distant ancestors. One such discovery is the 7000-6000-year-old burial of a young woman, estimated to be around 20 years old at the time of her death, and her newborn baby, found in Vedbaek, Denmark. What makes this burial particularly intriguing is the presence of 200 red deer teeth placed by the woman’s head, and the newborn being cradled in the wing of a swan with a flint knife placed at its hip. It is believed that the mother and child tragically died together during childbirth. The…

Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving are arguably the biggest failed duo we have seen in recent times. After teaming up in February, the Mavs fell from the 5th seed to the 11th seed, missing the postseason entirely. Even though it’s been a disaster so far, the Mavs need to get Kyrie to re-sign this summer and build a roster that can actually help the backcourt. Doncic has revealed he will be doing his best to get Kyrie to stay in Dallas. “I mean, yeah. I think it’s a great fit. Obviously, people are going to say no. I mean, I…

Michael Jordan is the greatest player of all time, make no mistake about that. Despite the surge from LeBron James, who became the game’s greatest scorer, there is quite a disparity between Air Jordan and the rest of the players that came before or after him. Michael accomplished so much in the NBA, from winning six NBA championships in a flawless 6-0 Finals record to capturing 10 scoring titles; no player was as dominant as the shooting guard during the late 1980s and 1990s. Since Michael Jordan retired following the 2002-03 NBA season, the NBA has been looking to create the new…

A ring of red light appears to hang above an Italian town. (Image credit: Valter Binotto) An enormous, circular halo of eerie red light, which looks like something out of a sci-fi movie, recently flashed in the night sky above Italy. The bizarre disk appeared and disappeared within milliseconds, meaning most people likely missed the strange spectacle. But one person, nature photographer Valter Binotto(opens in new tab), managed to capture a shot of the luminous halo in the sky above the town of Possagno in northern Italy on March 27. However, the red ring was not actually located above the…

Gliese 710, also known as HIP 89825, is an orange star with a mass of 0.6 M that resides in the constellation Serpens Cauda. It is predicted to pass near to the Sun in approximately 1.29 million years, at a minimum distance of 0.1663 light-years (10,520 astronomical units) (around 160 billion kilometers) — roughly one-quarter of the current distance to Proxima Centauri. At this distance, the brightness would be equivalent to that of the brightest planets, with a magnitude of around 2.7. (brighter than Mars at opposition). The true motion of the star will peak at around one arcminute per…

The Los Angeles Lakers have renewed hopes for the 2023 NBA playoffs after they clinched a winning season on Friday night.

The Lakers are signing two players today to add depth for the postseason, sources told ESPN. L.A. will sign guard Shaq Harrison, a defensive-minded point guard, and Tristan Thompson, a veteran center with playoff experience on LeBron James’ teams in Cleveland. Both players provide insurance at their positions for the roster, with L.A. having…

It is always fun to create dominant superteams based on specific skill sets. After all, we are in the era of superteams where elite offensive players are teaming up together to win multiple championships. LeBron James was the first one to truly form a superteam on his own terms when he joined Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in Miami. Since then, we saw Kevin Durant jump ship to join a 73-9 Golden State Warriors team that dominated the league in 2015 and 2016. Now, players requesting trades and jumping teams to win titles is the norm, as we have seen…
