Trump’s ‘Lightning Speed’ Outpaces the Courts

“Broken heart syndrome” can look just like a heart attack. This test can tell them apart
“Broken heart syndrome” can mimic a heart attack so closely that patients often need invasive testing to tell the difference. Researchers have now developed the BioTAK score, which combines biological sex with blood biomarkers to identify the condition before cardiac catheterization.

A coffee-table-size scorpion roamed Earth before forests existed

Interstellar solar sails hit a strange problem at 75% of light speed
