- NASA’s Perseverance rover successfully landed on Mars in February 2021 and has been exploring the planet ever since, collecting samples and conducting experiments to search for signs of ancient life.
- In January 2021, researchers discovered a new species of whale in the Gulf of Mexico, which was previously unknown to science. The whale, called the Rice’s whale, is one of the rarest whale species in the world.
- In December 2021, the European Space Agency launched the James Webb Space Telescope, the largest and most powerful space telescope ever built. The telescope is expected to provide unprecedented views of the universe and help scientists better understand the origins of galaxies and planets.
- In October 2021, scientists announced the discovery of a new state of matter called “time crystals”. Time crystals are structures that repeat in time rather than space, and they could have important applications in quantum computing and other areas of physics.
- In September 2021, researchers discovered a new type of dinosaur in Chile, called Arackar licanantay. The dinosaur was a small herbivore that lived about 150 million years ago, and its discovery could shed new light on the evolution of dinosaurs in South America.
- In July 2021, scientists announced that they had successfully used CRISPR gene editing to cure a rare genetic disorder in mice. The breakthrough could pave the way for new treatments for a range of genetic diseases in humans.
- In June 2021, researchers in Germany successfully produced hydrogen using solar energy and a new type of artificial photosynthesis. The breakthrough could help to make hydrogen fuel more cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
- In May 2021, scientists in the UK discovered a new type of ancient human, called the “Dragon Man”, in China. The Dragon Man had a large skull and a mix of primitive and modern features, and its discovery could help to rewrite the human evolutionary story.
- In April 2021, researchers in Australia announced the development of a new type of seaweed that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions from cows by up to 80%. The seaweed, called Asparagopsis, could help to reduce the carbon footprint of the livestock industry.
- In March 2021, scientists in the US and Germany announced that they had created the world’s smallest transistor, measuring just one nanometer in size. The breakthrough could help to improve the performance of computer chips and other electronic devices.
