This phenomenon, also known as "eco-anxiety" or "climate anxiety," is changing how we perceive and address climate change. The root of climate anxiety lies in the overwhelming sense of uncertainty and loss associated with the rapidly changing environment. People experience distress when faced with the magnitude of enviro...

লেখক : ধ্রুব নীল সময়পুর। এ নামে বাংলাদেশে কোনো গ্রাম নেই। মানে এখন আমাদের যে মানচিত্র তাতে এর অস্তিত্ব নেই। গ্রামের নামটা আমারই দেওয়া। কারণ, আমার মতে নামটা সময়পুরই হওয়া উচিত। যদিও ওই গ্রামের লোকজন নাম-ধাম নিয়ে ভাবে না। তাদের কাছে গ্রাম মানে গ্রাম। সময়পুর গ্রামে সময় যেতে চায় না। সবার হাতেই অফুরন্ত সময়। কাজ করতে করতে কোনো কৃষকের মনে হলো আজ নিড়ানি বাদ দিয়ে বসে থেকে শরতের ঘ্রাণওয়ালা বাতাস খাবে। তো সে সেটাই করে যাবে ঘণ্টার পর ঘণ্টা। এক সময় রাত হবে। শেয়াল ডাকবে। শেয়ালের ডাক শুনে শুনে কোনো শিশুকে তার মা গল্প শুনিয়ে ঘুম পাড়াবে। সেটাও অনেক সময় নিয়ে। তারপর নিশাচর পাখির গাছের গর্তে ঢোকার সঙ্গে সঙ্গে নেমে আসবে গভীর রাত। যে রাতটাও কাটতে চাইবে না অনেকক্ষণ। এখানে আসার পরই আমি গ্রাম কাকে বলে শিখেছি। গ্রাম হওয়ার মতো সবই আছে সময়পুরে। চিকন লতার মতো সজনে, খালের পাড়ে বেড়ে ওঠা কল...
Second Big Bang : What Scientists saying

Second Big Bang : What Scientists saying

Tech news
According to scientists, there might have been another significant cosmic event called the "Second Big Bang." Instead of just one enormous explosion that created the universe, researchers believe there could have been a second event that explains the existence of dark matter, an invisible substance that makes up a large part of the universe. Dark matter is a mysterious kind of matter that doesn't interact with light or other known forces, yet it appears to make up about 27 percent of the universe. Astronomers have been puzzled by the movements of galaxies, which don't fit with our current understanding of physics. To make sense of these movements, scientists think there must be unseen matter affecting them. Despite numerous efforts, we haven't directly observed dark matter. Some ...

How cells retain memory when they divide

How cells retain memory when they divide

Education, News
Every cell in our body has the same genetic information stored in its DNA. However, cells differ because they express specific genes required to become a certain type, like nerve cells or immune cells, among others. The cell's fate is controlled by chemical modifications on its DNA, determining which genes are active or inactive. When cells divide and copy their DNA, they lose some of these chemical modifications, raising the question of how they remember their identity. A new study from MIT proposes a model to explain how cells retain this memory when they divide. It suggests that the 3D folding pattern of a cell's DNA influences which parts of the DNA receive these chemical modifications. After DNA is copied during cell division, some modifications are lost, but the 3D folding helps e...
