Get ready to chase invisible forces that hold galaxies together, footprints that vanish into Himalayan snowstorms, and the quiet mathematics hiding inside your smartphone — because The Explorer’s January 2026 Edition is here, and curiosity is leading the way.

​

This month, we journey from the deepest mysteries of the cosmos—where dark matter acts as the unseen glue of the universe—to the icy legends of the Himalayas, where the Abominable Snowman blurs the line between myth and science. We sail into the infamous Bermuda Triangle, separating spooky stories from scientific truth, and step inside silicon chips to uncover how semiconductors quietly power the modern world.

As India celebrates Republic Day, we revisit history through the fearless life of Madam Cama, the rebel who carried India’s freedom struggle across continents. Along the way, we decode clever tricks played by numbers in Simpson’s Paradox, question whether we’re trapped inside a data bubble, and explore how nature—from soaring pelicans to stargazing telescopes in Hanle, Ladakh—continues to amaze and instruct us.

​

So turn the page, Explorers — January isn’t just the start of a new year. ​It’s the beginning of a brand-new voyage into knowledge.
