Bismuth compound could reduce patients’ radiation exposure from repeat x-rays

An international team of astronomers has used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to observe a luminous dusty star-forming galaxy known as GN20. Results of the observational campaign, published April 26 on the arXiv preprint server, deliver important insigh…

Over a century ago, researchers found how to convert water into hydrogen gas, which is a highly looked-for green energy that has been dubbed “the fuel of the future.”

Virtual reality just got more immersive with this face mask that lets you smell things in real time.

Ultraluminous X-ray sources are objects that shine 10 million times as bright as the sun. Scientists have said they are too bright to exist, as they break

An ultraluminous X-ray source spotted 12 million light-years away appears to be breaking the known laws of physics.

Hundreds of miles north of the Arctic Circle, Sandia National Laboratories researchers ensure the collection of important weather and climate data. By switching the gas used in their weather balloons, they have reduced their metaphorical footprint on the frag…

The tweak in the DNA further led to cascading changes across the genome that changed human features forever, especially the brain.

USA: Astronauts travelling to the International Space Station (ISS) on Axiom Space's Ax-2 mission, scheduled to launch on May 21, will cultivate stem cells for the first time in space. In particular, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which are cells wit…

ESA satellite, Meteosat Third Generation Imager, has shared its first-ever view of the Earth, highlighting conditions over Europe, Africa, and the Atlantic in remarkable detail.

Scientists have used artificial intelligence (AI) tools to simplify a test that works for both hepatitis C and SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19

Cincinnati Observatory astronomer Dean Regas gives his picks for places to escape light pollution and see more stars than you could ever imagine.

Scientific Reports - Intriguing physicochemical properties and impact of co-dopants on N-doped graphene oxide based ZnS nanowires for photocatalytic application

Scientists have developed a new laser-based breathalyser test powered by artificial intelligence (AI) that they say can detect COVID-19 in real-time with excellent

Mars has some of the most impressive volcanoes in the Solar System. ESA’s Mars Express has now imaged the pitted, fissured flank of the planet’s second-tallest: Ascraeus Mons.

Liftoff is scheduled for 4:09 p.m. ET today (May 10).

The new space telescope is so powerful that it can spot not merely exoplanets, but asteroid belts as well

With each breath, humans exhale more than 1,000 distinct molecules, producing a unique chemical fingerprint or "breathprint" rich with clues about what's going on inside the body.

Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and the University of Alaska Anchorage are the first to characterize two different types of surface water in the hyperarid salars—or salt flats—that contain much of the world’s lithium deposits.

Both Voyager probes have outlived their original missions and are exploring interstellar space more than 45 years after launch. The mission team has made clever decisions to manage the power supply and instruments on each spacecraft to keep them going.

A study carried out by a team of researchers at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC) has shown that an unusually thin structure of stars, recently discovered by the Hubble Space Telescope, could be a galaxy seen edge-on. This finding goes against th…

Scientists have found microorganisms capable of digesting plastic in the high altitudes of the Alps of Switzerland and in the polar regions of the Arctic, where temperatures are low. While several microorganisms that can do this have already been found, when …
