Sinking Iraq: Tectonic Plate Subduction Slows Sinks Zagros Region
Researchers discovered that the Zagros Mountain region in northern Iraq is slowly sinking due to the subduction of the Neotethys oceanic plate, a process caused by the collision of the Arabian and Eurasian continental plates, and this could improve earthquake prediction models.

Santorini Earthquakes Prompt Evacuations, Government Aid
Following over 14,000 earthquakes near Santorini since January 26, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced school closures and financial aid, while many of the island's 16,000 residents evacuated; experts suspect rising magma as the cause, but see no immediate eruption threat.

Interstellar Material from Alpha Centauri Found in Our Solar System
A new study uses simulations to show that millions of objects, from asteroids to microscopic particles, originating from the Alpha Centauri system, may be present in our solar system; this influx peaks in about 28,000 years when Alpha Centauri is closest to us.

Early Spring in Germany Due to Warm Weather
Germany experiences an early spring due to the high-pressure system "Finja," with early blooming of some plants and increased animal activity, although most migratory birds and insects are yet to arrive, while storks arrived up to 10 days earlier than usual.

Northern Lights Visible Across Parts of Northern U.S. on Sunday
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts increased visibility of the aurora borealis across parts of the northern U.S. on Sunday due to a solar maximum causing more solar flares, with Alaska having the best viewing conditions, and several other states having a lower but st...

Unexpectedly High Beryllium-10 Levels Suggest 10-Million-Year-Old Cosmic Event
An international team found unusually high levels of the radioactive isotope Beryllium-10 in Pacific Ocean sediment, dating back 10 million years, possibly caused by a cosmic radiation burst or a change in Antarctic ocean circulation.
