A supermassive black hole flying through space has left behind a trail of newborn stars twice as long as the Milky Way, a phenomenon researchers say they have never seen until now.

A group of molecular and chemical biologists at the University of California, San Diego, has found possible evidence of interdomain horizontal gene transfer leading to the development of the eye in vertebrates. In their study, reported in Proceedings of the N…

As researchers race to cultivate more of the intriguing cells from the deep seafloor, the few cells now growing in labs are giving us our best glimpses of the forerunners of all complex life.

By analyzing the data from various astronomical surveys, astronomers have detected 188,002 candidate metal-poor stars. The discovery, reported in a research paper published March 30 on the arXiv pre-print server, may help us better understand how the universe…

The field of plate tectonics is not that old, and scientists continue to learn the details of earthquake-producing geologic faults. The Cascadia Subduction Zone—the eerily quiet offshore fault that threatens to unleash a magnitude-9 earthquake in the Pacific …

"It simply changed the way that people thought that biology could be done."

Tiny aerosols particles in the atmosphere have a significant effect on the climate. They affect the climate directly by interacting with solar radiation. Depending on the type of particle, they can block sunlight, cooling the atmosphere, or absorb sunlight, w…

Due to a chemical reaction caused by a lightning strike, a new phosphorus material developed for the first time in solid form on Earth.

The next generation of quantum devices requires high-coherence qubits that are less error-prone. Responding to this need, researchers at the AQT at Berkeley Lab, a state-of-the-art collaborative research laboratory, developed a blueprint for a novel quantum p…

After crawling into the tunnel for the first time, Frank found giant scratch marks all over the walls.

A magnetic cage keeps the more than 100 million degree Celsius hot plasmas in nuclear fusion devices at a distance from the vessel wall so that they do not melt. Now researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) have found a way to signific…

In this special season five finale episode, join NASA astronaut Jessica Watkins, self-proclaimed “rock nerd” on a journey to the stars.

In an important stepping stone towards building its own space station, Axiom Space is now set to launch second private launch to the ISS in May.

A new image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has documented the rings of the mysterious planet in unprecedented detail – and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. <br /><br />

A planet-spanning online image of Mars created at a scale of 5 meters per pixel was unveiled today. The image is freely available to the public and can be accessed online through Caltech's Bruce Murray Laboratory for Planetary Visualization. It will

Simulating solar flares on a scale the size of a banana, researchers at Caltech have parsed out the process by which these massive explosions blast potentially harmful energetic particles and X-rays into the cosmos.Corona loops are arches of plasma t
