EverythingScience: science without the noise

A 22,000-strong science channel posting several times a day: discoveries in space, biology, physics and archaeology, each with a headline and a clear intro.

EverythingScience: science without the noise

What it is

EverythingScience is a Telegram channel with more than 22,000 subscribers. Its description promises human-curated science facts, news and discoveries, and that's a fair summary. Several posts go up each day: a headline, then the opening paragraphs of the story so you get the gist straight away.

The range is wide. Why Venus is hotter than Mercury even though it's farther from the Sun. What temperature T. rex's blood ran at. How X-rays and AI might let us read scrolls buried by Vesuvius. Which genes let flatworms regrow their brains. Image posts from NASA and ESA show up too, like a fresh crater on the Moon or one of Webb's largest images.

Why we picked it

It hits a sweet spot that's surprisingly hard to find. It isn't a bare list of headlines and it isn't clickbait: every post has a proper intro that tells you what was found, by whom and why it matters. And the mix is broad, from astronomy and genetics to palaeontology, psychology and history.

The pace helps too. A handful of posts a day is easy to get through over coffee, and after a week you have a decent picture of what's going on in science.

Where to start

  • Find the post on why Venus is hotter than Mercury; it's a perfect example of the format.
  • Read about the reconstructed face of the oldest known Homo sapiens from Jebel Irhoud.
  • Look up the story on the Roman scrolls damaged by Vesuvius and the push to read them.
  • Open the image of the new lunar crater spotted by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
  • Drop into the channel's chat if you want to talk things over.

Who it's for

People who want to keep up with science without checking a dozen websites. Students who like their reading short and concrete. Anyone who enjoys starting a conversation with "did you know…". Just note that posts run fairly long.

Quick answers

What topics does it cover? Space, biology, physics, medicine, palaeontology, archaeology and technology.

How often does it post? Several times a day.

Can I discuss the posts? Yes, the channel links to its own chat in the description.
