This image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows the galaxy cluster PLCK G004.5-19.5. It was discovered by the ESA Planck satellite through the Sunyaev-Zel’dovich…
The universe is highly magnetic, with everything from stars to planets to galaxies producing their own magnetic fields. Astrophysicists have long puzzled over these surprisingly…
Narwhals are some of the most elusive creatures in the ocean, spending most of their lives in deep water far from shore. But research being…
Scientists have successfully produced human kidney tissue within a living organism which is able to produce urine, a first for medical science. The study led…
A star about 100 light-years away in the Pisces constellation, GJ 9827, hosts what may be one of the most massive and dense super-Earth planets…
MIT neuroscientists have uncovered a cellular pathway that allows specific synapses to become stronger during memory formation. The findings provide the first glimpse of the…
Star-shaped and swallowtail-shaped tiny, dark bumps in fine-layered bright bedrock of a Martian ridge are drawing close inspection by NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover. This set…
NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft recently turned its telescopic camera toward a field of stars, snapped an image – and made history. The routine calibration frame…
Building a submarine gets tricky when the temperature drops to -300 Fahrenheit (-184 Celsius) and the ocean is made of methane and ethane. Washington State…
