What would a volcano — and its lava flows — look like on a planetary body made primarily of metal? A pilot study from North…
Simulations show ultrasound waves at medical imaging frequencies can cause the virus’ shell and spikes to collapse and rupture. The coronavirus’ structure is an all-too-familiar…
When NASA’s Parker Solar Probe sent back the first observations from its voyage to the Sun, scientists found signs of a wild ocean of currents…
In early 2020, data from satellites were used to show a decline in air pollution coinciding with nationwide lockdowns put in place to stop the…
Lightning strikes — perhaps a quintillion of them, occurring over a billion years — may have provided sparks of life for the early Earth. A…
Superconductivity is a complete loss of electrical resistance. Superconductors are not merely very good metals: it is a fundamentally different electronic state. In normal metals,…
Astronomers have discovered new hints of a giant, scorching-hot planet orbiting Vega, one of the brightest stars in the night sky. The research, published this…
Slow walkers are almost four times more likely to die from COVID-19, and have over twice the risk of contracting a severe version of the…
As atmospheric concentrations of CFC-11 drop, the global ocean should become a source of the chemical by the middle of next century. The world’s oceans…
Long-lost ice core provides direct evidence that giant ice sheet melted off within the last million years and is highly vulnerable to a warming climate….
University of Chicago study finds way that hot, rocky planets in other systems could form and keep atmospheres. An atmosphere is what makes life on…
Researchers uncovered for the first time what happens in animals’ brains when they learn from subconscious, visual stimuli. In time, this knowledge can lead to…
An international research team with members from ETH has developed a new method for directly imaging smaller planets in the habitable zone of a neighboring…
