ARDA is a research platform for finding, predicting, evaluating, and exporting RNA 3D structures.

Why it surfaced

The platform brings together three scientific modules, 11 quality metrics, and support for more than 100 RNA families. Developed with IBISC at Université d'Évry Paris-Saclay, it includes sequence search, automatic structure prediction, RNAdvisor2 evaluation, PDB export, documentation, and a research-to-commercial pipeline.

The Plotter’s 09:30 Shift

August 18’s newborn domains include an obsolete pen plotter clocking in at 09:30, emergency warnings designed for sight, touch, or hearing, a funeral-folder tool calibrated for printer drift, and photographs of Colombian rental signs turned into a housing map.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-18 Domain Arrivals issue.
