Whatever your beliefs, most people would agree that the body we leave behind when we depart this mortal coil is just a heap of bones and flesh. But what happens to those leftovers? Assuming that nature is left to its own devices, our bodies undergo a fairly standard process of decomposition that can take anywhere from two weeks to two years.

Is a strange speck of light on Mars evidence of intelligent life on the Red Planet?
That’s what some are asking after what appears to be a bright white beam of light shining from behind the Martian dunes showed up in images taken by NASA’s Curiosity rover.
Scott Waring of the website UFO Sightings Daily noticed the mysterious spot in a photo taken by the rover on April 3, or sol 589 (a sol is a day on Mars).

If 2012 was the year neuroscience exploded into pop culture, 2013 was the year it stepped into the halls of power.
.
The Obama administration’s $100-million BRAIN Initiative stirred up furious debate, as proponents cheered to see so much funding and press attention thrown at large-scale efforts to map the human brain, while opponents claimed that the whole thing might be a gigantic waste of valuable resources. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, the European Union’s Human Brain Project sparked similar disputes – disputes that continue even as unexpected breakthroughs have begun to surface.

Stephen Fry explains what the meaning of life is to him as a nonreligious person. In three minutes. Which is pretty impressive. It doesn’t matter what you believe; these things seem pretty universal to me.

Japan’s highly-contentious whaling campaign experienced a major setback on Monday when a United Nations court ruled that the island nation could no longer continue its annual whale hunt in the waters around Antarctica.
Japan’s highly-contentious whaling campaign experienced a major setback on Monday when a United Nations court ruled that the island nation could no longer continue its annual whale hunt in the waters around Antarctica.
The International Court of Justice ruled in favor of Australia, which had sued Japan and rejected that country’s argument that the whaling has been conducted mainly for scientific reasons.
“The court concludes, that the special permits granted by Japan for the killing, taking and treating of whales in connection with JARPA II are not purposes of scientific research,” the presiding judge, Peter Tomka, of Slovakia, said referring to the Japanese Whale Research Program under Special Permit in the Antarctic (JARPA).

A biodome-type experiment called “HI-SEAS” starts this weekend in Hawaii in preparation for a future manned mission to Mars. Those taking part in the experiment will live in isolation and wear a space suit every time they go outside. The Weather Channel’s Dave Malkoff reports.

You’ve never seen the Milky Way quite like this.
A new panoramic view of our galaxy is the result of 2.5 million images captured by NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope — and is the clearest video tour of the galaxy yet made. Just check it out above.
“If we actually printed this out, we’d need a billboard as big as the Rose Bowl Stadium to display it,” Robert Hurt, an imaging specialist at NASA’s Spitzer Space Science Center in Pasadena, Calif, said in a written statement. “Instead, we’ve created a digital viewer that anyone, even astronomers, can use.”

The discovery that the universe really did expand at many times the speed of light immediately after the Big Bang should bring physicists slightly closer to their ultimate goal — the long-sought “Theory of Everything.”
On Monday (March 17), researchers announced that they had detected the signature of gravitational waves in the cosmic microwave background, the ancient light that began pervading the universe 380,000 years after the Big Bang.
If it holds up, the landmark find confirms the theory of inflation, which posits that the cosmos exploded from mere quantum fluctuations into something of macroscopic size just a few tiny fractions of a second after its birth. [How Inflation Gave the Universe the Ultimate Kickstart (Infographic)]
.

The bottom part of this illustration shows the scale of the universe versus time. Specific events are shown such as the formation of neutral Hydrogen at 380 000 years after the big bang. Prior to this time, the constant interaction between matter (electrons) and light (photons) made the universe opaque. After this time, the photons we now call the CMB started streaming freely.

The premiere of “Cosmos,” Neil deGrasse Tyson’s new TV series, has a lot of science geeks massively pumped. And that includes the folks at NASA, who welcomed the 13-part series by releasing a stunning new gallery of space photos on Flickr.
From a psychedelic vortex on Saturn to monster solar flares to the beautiful remnants of dying stars, prepare to get seriously psyched about space.

When “Gravity” hit theaters last fall, Neil deGrasse Tyson paid special attention to the Oscar-nominated film. The blockbuster, afterall, is set in space.
Upon viewing “Gravity,” though, Neil deGrasse Tyson tweeted up a storm critiquing the movie’s mysteries and inaccuracies. Tyson elaborates more on the inaccuracies of “Gravity” and explains how, despite his Twitter barrage, he actually “enjoyed the movie immensely.”
