Dark matter is a confounding concept that teeters on the leading edges of cosmology and physics. We don't know what it is or how exactly it fits into our understanding of the universe. We only know that its unseen mass is ...
This week, ALMA researchers reported the discovery of oxygen in the most distant known galaxy. Geologists believe unusual structures in rock in the desert regions of Namibia, Oman and Saudia Arabia may be evidence of an unknown ...
From the grounds of a gas-fired power plant on the eastern shores of Canada, a little-known company is pumping a slurry of minerals into the ocean in the name of stopping climate change.
The universe has been expanding ever since the Big Bang almost 14 billion years ago, and astronomers believe a kind of invisible force called dark energy is making it accelerate faster.
Dark energy makes up roughly 70% of the universe, yet we know nothing about it.
Researchers from the UAB demonstrate that the way sardines eat, altered due to the reduction in size of plankton, undermines the efficiency of their feeding and increases the likelihood of consuming more plastic fibers. Although ...
What's the deadliest part of a supernova explosion? To estimate this we have to look at what the actual destructive capabilities are of a supernova. As in, what does a supernova produce? And how deadly are those products ...
New research by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) collaboration has produced the clearest images yet of the universe's infancy—the earliest cosmic time yet accessible to humans. Measuring light that traveled for more ...
Physicists have measured a nuclear reaction that can occur in neutron star collisions, providing direct experimental data for a process that had previously only been theorized. The study, led by the University of Surrey, ...
By analyzing the data from Leahy's atlas of double radio-sources and NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED), Serbian astronomers have explored an X-shaped radio galaxy designated 3C 315. Results of the new study, published ...
