SpaceX’s Starship flew to space and returned, but suffered visible damage on the fall back to Earth. The rocket’s fin started ripping off mid-fall, and the camera lens cracked. Starship’s splashdown was a big step toward reusability though, and Elon Musk claimed victory. SpaceX’s Starship mega-rocket snagged a huge victory on the road to Elon […]

The proposal comes five years after Japan resumed commercial whaling within its exclusive economic zone after withdrawing from the International Whaling Commission in 2019. It ended 30 years of what Japan called […]

It’s not yet known what killed an endangered fin whale, but people can marvel at the large marine mammal as it decomposes on an Oregon beach. “While it’s sad, it’s also super educational,” Tiffany Boothe, assistant manager of the Seaside Aquarium, said Thursday of the rare sight, which she said is only the second dead […]
I made an accidental and astonishing discovery while studying the movements of sharks off the coast of Jupiter, Florida. I set out to record the migration routes of silky sharks, named for their smooth skin. Instead, in a story filled with twists and turns, I ended up documenting the rare phenomenon of a shark regenerating […]
Mariners have long credited sharks with having seemingly “superhero”-like capabilities.
