# Key Scientific News: Simultaneous Retraction of 1400 Papers, Space Images, and Discovery of a Rotating Molecule

Publisher IEEE retracted over 1400 research papers. The James Webb Telescope released new images of the 'Cat's Head' Nebula, and a rotating molecule was discovered in molecular engineering.

The scientific publisher IEEE retracted over 1400 conference papers in one day due to connections with fake paper production (Nature). The James Webb Space Telescope released new midwave light images of a nebula shaped like a 'Cat's Head' (NASA). In molecular engineering, research showed that a rotating helical molecule in an electric current can increase its conductivity by up to 100 times (Hayadan). Additionally, there were discussions about pet animal lifespans and their effects in Nature articles.
