How do microbes go dormant for centuries, and then revive themselves? Could we potentially ‘talk’ to them? New findings could help science use bacteria better.

It's getting closer and closer to the extreme moon.

Approximately 700,000 years ago, a “warm ice age” permanently changed the climate cycles on Earth. Contemporaneous with this exceptionally warm and moist period, the polar glaciers greatly expanded. A European research team including Earth scientists

In an awe-inspiring display of cosmic prowess, the M101 Galaxy lights up as a supernova, discovered by the esteemed amateur astronomer, Koichi Itagaki, offers an extraordinary spectacle visible even through amateur telescopes.

The researchers, who used the Hubble Space Telescope, focused on a supernova — or a star that suddenly dissolved through a catastrophic explosion.

Whenever it happens, it will be astonishing.

NASAs CAPSTONE mission -- a microwave oven-sized CubeSat -- captured its first images of the Moon,...

The end of the world has been predicted several times throughout history, but so far none of them have come true. The end of the World Day will be marked on May 21 this year. It commemorates the day when the apocalypse was to happen in 2011.

A colossal plume of solar plasma is hurtling towards Earth, promising a potential light show and minor disruptions.

INDIA: Astronomers discovered an extraordinary celestial dance between the gas giants of our solar system, Jupiter and Saturn. Scientists unveiled the fascinating 4:1 resonance these awe-inspiring planets share, providing a mesmerising spectacle that captivat…

When stars like our Sun die, they tend to go out with a whimper and not a bang – unless they happen to be part of a binary (two) star system that could give rise to a supernova explosion.

A sunspot duo has been exploding non-stop, producing a barrage of M-class solar flares on the Sun. The ultraviolet radiation has resulted in a rolling series of blackouts across the planet. More solar storm trouble coming?

So far, only two interstellar objects have been confirmed from the vast expanses of space, perplexing scientists with why there aren't more.

Scientists from Tel Aviv University and the Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research Institute (IOLR) have made significant strides in improving seaweed's capacity to produce healthy natural materials. Their recent research has been centered around boos…

Scientists are devising new techniques that may drastically alter how we discover and categorize distant planets.

Abstract. Water ices are a common component of cold space environments, including molecular and protostellar clouds, and the frozen surfaces of moons, planets,

​​​The findings represent an early step towards constructing a non-invasive brain-computer interface that could one day allow individuals with paralysis, amputated limbs, or other physical problems to use their minds to control a device that aids in daily tas…

New research by a team of Japanese climatologists and an astronomer shows how astronomical forces have caused major changes in Earth's climate.

Researchers at the University of California, San Diego, discovered a way to identify people's hand movements by reviewing only data from noninvasive brain imaging, rather than information from the hands themselves. The findings represent an early step towards…
