Data from the NASA spacecraft’s journey to Jupiter suggests that Mars may be shedding dust into interplanetary space. Look up to the night sky just…
Located around 5000 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus (The Swan), Abell 78 is an unusual type of planetary nebula. After exhausting the nuclear…
Astronomers may have discovered the most distant jet emitting X-rays. The source of this jet is a rapidly growing supermassive black hole, or quasar, located…
Spectacular fossil plants preserved within a volcanic ash fall in China have shed light on an evolutionary race 300 million years ago, which was eventually…
Several years after scientists discovered what was considered the oldest crater a meteorite made on the planet, another team found it’s actually the result of…
Duke Lemur Center recreates the seasonal swings of native habitat, helping to unlock the secrets of hibernation. If you binged on high-calorie snacks and then…
Review explores ways that space radiation can damage cardiovascular health, and discusses how we can protect astronauts, from vitamin C to spinach. Space: the final…
How much did SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, need to change in order to adapt to its new human host? In a research article…
UMass Amherst researchers used remote sensing to quantify the previously underestimated erosion. More than one-third of the Corn Belt in the Midwest – nearly 30…
Weight lifting, also known as resistance training, has been practiced for centuries as a way of building muscular strength. Research shows that resistance training, whether…
The interplanetary interloper won’t come closer than 1.25 million miles to Earth, but it will present a valuable scientific opportunity for astronomers. The largest asteroid…
Despite ESA’s GOCE mission ending over seven years ago, scientists continue to use this remarkable satellite’s gravity data to delve deep and unearth secrets about…
The Earth-sized exoplanet may have lost its original atmosphere but gained a second one through volcanism. Orbiting a red dwarf star 41 light-years away is…
International team of researchers investigates how evolution forms the structure and function of a newly emerged protein in flies. Proteins are the key component in…
As Richard Feynman famously put it, “the double slit experiment is absolutely impossible to explain in any classical way and has in it the heart…
When spring arrives in southern Mars, a cloud of water ice emerges near the 20-kilometer-tall Arsia Mons volcano, rapidly stretching out for many hundreds of…
German physicists explore the possibility of tunnels in spacetime. Wormholes play a key role in many science fiction films — often as a shortcut between…
