Mashup Score: 2After 15 years, pulsar timing yields evidence of cosmic background gravitational waves - 8 month(s) ago
LIGO confirmed the existence of gravitational waves in 2015, detecting one-time perturbations of spacetime from the merger of large black holes. There should be a background of gravitational waves permeating space due to other cataclysmic events in the cosmos, perhaps dating from the Big Bang. The NANOGrav consortium reports evidence from pulsar timing arrays that space is filled with such waves. Simulations suggest the cosmic gravitational wave background is likely caused by the merger of hundreds of thousands of supermassive black holes over the history of the universe.

Mashup Score: 3Metal-rich stars are less suitable for the evolution of life on their planets - Nature Communications - 1 year(s) ago
Low stellar ultraviolet (UV) radiation leads to low ozone abundances, therefore, less planetary UV protection. Here, the authors show that planets in the habitable zones of metal-poor stars, despite their higher UV radiation than metal-rich stars, are the best targets for search for life.
