The largest number of logical qubits has been linked through quantum entanglement, which is a key step towards quantum computers that can detect and correct errors

More than 20 million people have joined Bluesky, a social network that gives you fine-grained control over what you see and who you interact with. I think it is the future of social media, says Chris Stokel-Walker

Most mathematicians have been reluctant to start working with artificial intelligence, but a new tool developed by researchers at Meta may change that

Attempts to prevent Australian children from accessing social media are likely to fail, and could do more harm than good

Letting AI models communicate with each other in their internal mathematical language, rather than translating back and forth to English, could accelerate their task-solving abilities

Two massive galaxies are bending light from the same distant quasar, creating a so-called Einstein zigzag lens that could help astronomers pin down how quickly the universe is expanding

The Proba-3 mission consists of two spacecraft that will fly in close formation to study the sun, with the shadow of one creating an artificial solar eclipse from the perspective of the other

Readers give higher ratings to AI-generated poetry than the works of poets such as William Shakespeare, Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson – perhaps because they often have more straightforward themes and simpler structure

Driverless cars can now do doughnuts and drift like stunt drivers, skidding sideways around corners while maintaining control, which might help the cars recover from dangerous situations

Elon Musk’s SpaceX is preparing for the sixth test flight of Starship, the world's most powerful rocket. It aims to conduct the launch as early as 18 November. Here’s everything we know so far

The moon's glare can frustrate astronomers, but Leah Crane is a big fan of the jagged, cratered details of the lunar surface these days

Researchers mapped Earth’s ionosphere, part of the upper atmosphere, using signal data from 40 million phones – a method that could improve GPS accuracy and help track space weather

The NIH’s RECOVER Initiative aims to ease the suffering of those living with Long Covid.

Diverse mechanisms contribute to persistent symptoms after Lyme disease, and a holistic multidisciplinary approach is needed to optimize care.

Understanding postacute infection syndromes requires sex-specific research approaches.

A research agenda that studies Long Covid in the context of related conditions could transform our understanding of these disabling illnesses.

Understanding the drivers of pediatric Long Covid and MIS-C is essential for developing therapeutic interventions.

Understanding of the mechanisms of Long Covid has advanced because of human and animal model studies and clinical trials.

Animal models will inform our understanding of Long Covid and will aid in identifying therapeutic targets.

A multiomic analysis reveals sex differences and immune correlates of Long Covid symptom development, persistence, and resolution.
