Wildlife officials said the bear entered the home a second time before it fled.

Louisiana authorities found two inmates who had escaped from the Tangipahoa Parish Jail, just north of New Orleans, hiding in a dumpster — but two others are still at large, the parish sheriff's office says.

“The majority of the people of Colombia recognize this long tradition and history of relationship and friendship with the Jewish people,” Galán said.

Powerful storms left a wide trail of destruction in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina and Missouri. But there were also remarkable stories of survival.

Billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk's startup xAI said it has raised $6 billion from investors in an increasingly crowded artificial intelligence market.

In a new study assessing how climate change might alter hydropower generation across the continental United States, researchers show that except for some parts of the Southwest, hydropower generation is expected to rise in the future.

This summer's Western heat waves raise the specter of recent years' rotating power outages and record-breaking electricity demand in the region. If utilities across the area expanded current schemes to share electricity, they could cut outage risks by as much as 40%, according to new research by the Climate and Energy Policy Program at the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment.

An insect species that evolved 130 million years ago is the inspiration for a new research study to improve navigation systems in drones, robots, and orbiting satellites.

West Virginia University roboticists are working on an alternative path to robot autonomy in Loopy, a "multicellular robot" composed of a ring of individual interconnected robot cells.

A new technology can extract lithium from brines at an estimated cost of under 40% that of today's dominant extraction method, and at just a fourth of lithium's current market price. The new technology would also be much more reliable and sustainable in its use of water, chemicals, and land than today's technology, according to a study published in Matter by Stanford University researchers.

Lithium iron phosphate is one of the most important materials for batteries in electric cars, stationary energy storage systems and tools. It has a long service life, is comparatively inexpensive and does not tend to spontaneously combust. Energy density is also making progress. However, experts are still puzzled as to why lithium iron phosphate batteries undercut their theoretical electricity storage capacity by up to 25% in practice.

A new national survey has found that most adult Australians use different types of digital media regularly, yet their overall confidence in their digital media abilities remains quite low, showing very little change since 2021.

A multidisciplinary research team based across China and Brazil has used a dog-like robot and AI to create a new way to find fire ant nests. Published in the journal Pest Management Science, the study highlights how a "CyberDog" robot integrated with an AI model can automate the identification and control of Red Imported Fire Ants (RIFA), a globally destructive pest.

Emerging self-driving vehicle networks that collaborate and communicate with each other or infrastructure to make decisions are vulnerable to data fabrication attacks, according to a University of Michigan-led study that also outlines preventive measures for fleet operators.
