Astronomers plan to use data from the upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope to hone in on globular cluster star streams, potentially of our neighboring And
The powerful gravity fields of black holes can devour whole planets' worth of matter—often so violently that they expel streams of particles traveling near the speed of light in formations known as jets. Scientists understand that these high-speed jets can ac…
A three-dimensional radiation-hydrodynamic simulation of a tidal disruption event (TDE) flare from disruption to peak emission shows how deterministic predictions of TDE light curves and spectra can be calculated using moving-mesh hydrodynamics algorithm…
Some of the finest, smallest details in the universe – the gaps between elongated groups of stars – may soon help astronomers reveal dark matter in greater
For the first time, high-resolution images captured by the James Webb Space Telescope are offering powerful insights into the complex dust patterns of nearby star-forming galaxies.
Experts have revealed a “superstructure” that is bigger than the entire US state of Idaho has been growing on the sea floor near Fiji since dinosaurs roamed the Earth.The ocean is home to mysteries that have continued to perplex scientists, such as the discov…
The natural world is constantly surprising us, and now new research has suggested that ’fountains of diamonds’ could be sent shooting up to the surface of the Earth as part of a major geological event.Supercontinents breaking up could send them spewing up fro…
10 Animals That Can Be Both Male And Female: The first on the list of animals who enjoy the privilege of being a male and a female is the Clownfish. Banana Slugs, Butterflies, and Hawkfish are also some of the animals that share the same trait.
Strong, lightweight materials that can tolerate very high temperatures have the potential to improve existing technologies, pave the way for the creation of novel biomedical imaging or hydrogen storage applications, or even usher in the next generation of spa…
Climate change is impacting U.S. forests, especially in the Western regions, leading to decreased tree growth and challenging their ability to act as carbon sinks. Climate change is reshaping forests differently across the United States, according to a new an…
As revealed this week at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society in New Orleans, this exoplanet has a 3,50,000-mile-long tail of helium gas that billows out behind it like a comet’s.
In a groundbreaking revelation featured exclusively in the Early-Career Researchers section of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS)
Led by cosmologist Alexander Kashlinsky from the University of Maryland and NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, the research team's unexpected discovery - of a gamma-ray dipole - follows 13 years of intensive data analysis from NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Te…
Humans have been making glass for 4,000 years. But now, scientists are developing techniques that will impact everything from medicine to the way we see the universe.
Hello, hello, hello and good morning to you all, my fellow gnusies!� I hope everyone had wonderful holidays, and, should you be one of the many who are weathering the weather, whether it be cold or ...
