There may have just been the discovery of a new elementary particle
Physicists may have recently stumbled onto the long-sought-after new fundamental particle known as the sterile neutrino. This particle has proven difficult to find.
James Webb Space Telescope Just Validated Its Usefulness in the Search for Extraterrestrial Life
Astrophysicists will look for signs of life in the atmospheres of faraway planets, and NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has shown that this is possible.
The rapid, continuous pulse of a fast radio burst provides insight into its cosmic origin
The vast majority of the hundreds of previously detected rapid radio bursts endure only milliseconds.
NASA's JWST detects water on distant planet
After the James Webb Space Telescope was successfully deployed into space, NASA shocked the world by revealing photographs captured by the telescope shortly…
The farthest rotating galaxy dates back 13.3 billion years
In the distant past of the cosmos, there is a galaxy that is observed to be whirling around faster than any other galaxy that has ever been observed doing so.
Sand clouds are frequent in brown dwarf atmospheres
Sand clouds may collect, develop, and dissipate in some alien atmospheres. Clouds composed of heated silicate minerals are prevalent in brown dwarfs.
Structures of historical significance can be preserved with the help of nanoparticles
Buildings constructed from permeable rock might deteriorate over time. Now, scientists have investigated in depth how silicate nanoparticles might aid in…
Superfast computers conduct cancer, quantum physics, and other hard computations
A supercomputer is a very powerful computer. Thus, it is capable of doing a vast number of computations per second.
The NASA Spacecraft Discovers Asteroid Bennu Is Not What It Appears to Be
After collecting a sample of dust and rock from Bennu's surface, the spacecraft would have sunk into the asteroid if it hadn't instantly fired its engines to…
The James Webb Space Telescope will provide unprecedented views of the cosmos
Ahead of the greatest premiere in the history of astronomy, NASA has revealed the cosmic A-list that will be seen through the lens of its enormous new space…
Scientists suggest a new idea for the origin of the Earth
Although scientists have studied Earth for a very long time, many issues remain unresolved.
Entanglement of Quantum Memories
Two quantum memories have been coupled across a 33-kilometer-long fiber optic link — a record and a significant step toward the quantum internet.
Artificial Intelligence that doesn't require computers
In a significant step forward, a plasma-based AI learns to play tic-tac-toe using variable and programmable mixes of gases.
Start of a huge underground hunt for the mysterious dark matter
Scientists have launched their search for dark matter, which has thus far remained undiscovered.
Electrochemistry as a means of addressing the oxygen supply problem
Researchers expect that a new electrochemical device that creates high-purity oxygen on-site may help alleviate the oxygen supply crisis.
ADHD medications may benefit Alzheimer's patients who are apathetic
The use of noradrenaline-targeting drugs to treat apathy, a prevalent symptom of Alzheimer's disease, has showed potential.
Calculations indicate that extraterrestrials could potentially convey quantum communications to Earth
Researchers say that light particles, or photons, could be transferred over large interstellar distances without losing their quantum nature.
The South Pole Telescope, a product of the future, can peer deep into the past
That view, seen from the South Pole Telescope at the research station, is not what most of us imagine when we look up at the sky.
Scientists are reactivating the Large Hadron Collider to learn more about the universe
Using the Large Hadron Collider for a third time, the bright brains at CERN have high expectations of uncovering even more cosmic riddles.
A large rogue in our galaxy might be a black hole
Astronomers think it's the first Milky Way solitary black hole with a sun-like mass. It might be one of the heaviest neutron stars.
Today, Earth is the furthest from the Sun at 152 million kilometers
In its orbit, the Earth is at its furthest distant point from the Sun, known as aphelion. Here is all you need to know about this occurrence.
A study of astronauts demonstrates the impact of space travel on human bones
A study of bone loss in 17 International Space Station astronauts reveals the effects of space travel on the body and possible remedies.
Researchers identify a novel mechanism by which T cells distinguish between friend and foe
The immune system must differentiate between self and non-self to defend the body's own tissues against harmful substances.
