Blood Flow in a Fin

This award-winning video shows blood flowing through the tail fin of a small fish. Cells flow outward in a central vessel, then split to either side for the return journey. (Video and image credit: F. Weston for the 2023 Nikon Small World in Motion Competition; via Colossal) Read the full article

"Chaosmosis"

After many years of featuring work from the Gallery of Fluid Motion, I'm excited to announce a new public exhibition of art drawn from the competition: "Chaosmosis: Assigning Rhythm to the Turbulent."  (Image credits: various, see individual images' titles) Read the full article

Eroding the Sphinx

One theory suggests that the Great Sphinx of Giza formed -- in part -- naturally as a result of erosion, and ancient Egyptians added features to the bedrock formation. To test the plausibility of the theory, researchers made a miniature sphinx. (Image credit: S. Boury et al.) Read the full article

Spreading Spores

Mushrooms are the fruiting bodies of much bigger, largely underground fungi. Being fruit, mushrooms have the job of spreading spores so that the fungus can reproduce. Some mushrooms rely on the wind; others create their own wind.  (Image credit: top - A. Papatsanis, bottom - I. Potyó; via Wildlife POTY) Read the full article

Inside a Zebrafish Heart

This glimpse inside a 5-day-old zebrafish's heart shows why they're often used as a model organism in cardiac studies. The fish's heart rate is similar to humans and its two-chamber heart -- one atrium and one ventricle, both seen here -- serves as a simplified version of ours. (Video credit: M.

"Shaken, Not Stirred"

James Bond notoriously orders his martinis "shaken, not stirred," a request bartenders fulfill by shaking the cocktail over ice in a separate shaker. But what if you shake the martini glass itself? That's the question that inspired this lovely mixology. (Image and research credit: X. Song et al.; submitted by Zhao P.) Read the full article

Swirling Sea Ice

The Sea of Okhotsk is the northern hemisphere's southernmost sea that seasonally freezes. Caught between the Siberian coast and the Kamchatka Peninsula, cold air from Siberia helps freeze water kept at lower salinity due to freshwater run-off.  (Image credit: W.

"Haut"

In Susi Sie's "Haut" the camera seems to fly over ever-shifting landscapes. In reality, these are macro images, created (I think) by dyes and patterns atop a water bath.  (Video credit: S. Sie) Read the full article

Jupiter in Infrared

These recent composite images from the James Webb Space Telescope show Jupiter in stunning infrared detail. They're the result of several images taken in different infrared bands, then combined and rendered in visible light. In general, the redder colors show longer wavelengths and the bluer ones show shorter wavelengths. (Image credit: NASA/ESA/Jupiter ERS Team 1, 2; via Colossal) Read the full article
