Scientists have reproduced in the lab how the ingredients for life could have formed deep in the ocean 4 billion years ago. The results of…
A compilation of scientific results from The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, SOFIA, reveals new clues to how stars form and galaxies evolve, and are…
TRAPPIST-1 is a system of seven Earth-sized worlds orbiting an ultra-cool dwarf star about 120 light-years away. The star, and hence its system of planets,…
The option to measure the gravitational waves of two merging neutron stars has offered the chance to answer some of the fundamental questions about the…
A new oviraptorosaur species from the Late Cretaceous was discovered in Mongolia, according to a study published on February 6, 2019 in the open-access journal…
The faint, ephemeral glow emanating from the planetary nebula ESO 577-24 persists for only a short time — around 10,000 years, a blink of an…
A black hole four million times as massive as our Sun lurks at the center of the Milky Way. This black hole, called Sagittarius A*…
The universe is about 13.8 billion years old, and its stars are arguably its most momentous handiwork. Astronomers studying the intricacies of star formation across…
Using new data from NASA’s Cassini spacecraft, researchers believe they have solved a longstanding mystery of solar system science: the length of a day on…
The end of a star’s life can occur in a tranquil manner in the case of low-mass stars, such as the Sun. This is not…
Supermassive black holes weigh millions to billions times more than our sun and lie at the center of most galaxies. A supermassive black hole several…
The combination of naltrexone and ketamine can help treat both symptoms of addiction and depression, a preliminary study by Yale University researchers suggests. Substance abuse…
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, TESS, has discovered a third small planet outside our solar system, scientists announced this week at the annual American Astronomical…
Scientists have found evidence that dark matter can be heated up and moved around, as a result of star formation in galaxies. The findings provide…
New research led by astrophysicists at Durham University, UK, predicts that the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) could hit the Milky Way in two billion years’…
Yale researchers have identified a drinkable cocktail of designer molecules that interferes with a crucial first step of Alzheimer’s and even restores memories in mice,…
The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured the smoking gun of a newborn star, the Herbig–Haro objects numbered 7 to 11 (HH 7–11). These five…
