Herbs and mangroves and liquid nitrogen ice cream, oh my! And that was Day 2 of our Science Discovery Camp. Follow us to see what else our campers will experience on their last camp day tomorrow!

And that's a wrap on Day 1 of our 2026 Science Discovery Camp! Our campers got to experience their first day of lectures, lab work, and fun activities organized by our faculty and student ambassadors.

Join us tomorrow to see what's in store for Day 2!

In our final School showcase, we head over to our School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (NTU SPMS) to chat with their students about why they chose to join the College of Science. This week, say hello to Aariz, who is pursuing a double major in physics and mathematical sciences!

Journey to the of the : A mystery has puzzled for decades – where has the Earth’s missing lead gone? Rocks on the surface contain more “young” lead than theory predicts, giving the impression that the Earth is much younger than it’s supposed to be.

To find this missing lead, researchers led by focused on the behaviour of lead sulphide, a likely candidate for how lead is stored in the Earth.

Using computer simulations, they showed that lead sulphide becomes extraordinarily stable under extreme pressures, which are conditions that can be found deep in the Earth’s mantle. In fact, it can remain solid at temperatures as high as 5,000°C.

The finding suggests that hidden reservoirs of ancient lead could have formed early in Earth’s history and then remained tucked away deep in the mantle. There are also cosmic implications as the study changes our understanding of the chemistry of planets.
