'What I find particularly fascinating about these results is the intersection of ancient knowledge and modern science.'

Contrary to a finding from the 1960s, a new study reveals that the bulk of Earth's biomass comes from giant and tiny organisms.

University of Queensland scientists have identified natural predators which could help fight outbreaks of the coral-eating crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS) on the Great Barrier Reef.

The prebiotic molecules were found in the Perseus Molecular Cloud, a young cluster of stars and gas in deep space.

Researchers have developed a way to create photonic time crystals, and they have shown that these bizarre, artificial materials amplify the light that shines on them. These findings, described in a paper in Science Advances, could lead to more efficient and r…

Through global-scale seismic imaging of Earth's interior, research led by The University of Alabama revealed a layer between the core and the mantle that is likely a dense, yet thin, sunk ocean floor, according to results published today in Science Advances.

Supermassive black holes are lighting up the cores of two merging galaxies in the early universe.

College kids from Carnegie Mellon plan to send the first private lunar rover to the moon on May the 4th and capture scientific images on its 60-day mission.

An international team of cosmologists and astrophysicists including researchers from Carnegie Mellon used precision measurements to find that the universe is slightly less “clumpy” than it should be based on the cosmological standard model. Their findings cou…

BH1 is located just 1,560 light-years away from Earth in the direction of the constellation Ophiuchus, making it the closest black hole ever detected. In add...

Someone spotted the pits back in the 1950s but covered them to make the floor even.

This star system, called JADES-GS-z13-0, formed just 320 million years after the Big Bang!

Suppression of shallow traps responsible for dark count rates in polycrystalline methylammonium lead triiodide using diphenyl sulfide enables the production of metal-halide perovskite photon-counting detectors that allow sensitive detection of γ-ray spectra.

A computational approach is used to design modular proteins that bind to synthetic peptides and disordered regions of human proteins with high affinity and specificity.

Analysis of more than 7,600 corrugation ridges on the Norwegian continental shelf shows that rapid grounding-line retreat of several hundred metres per day occurred across low-gradient ice-sheet beds during the last deglaciation.

Transcend Normal Dinosaurs! Welcome to today's CDP, this time featuring the brand new Transcendrake theme alongside the new Rex Raptor Dinosaur support. The Transcendrake theme consists of Level 12…

May It Be A Light To You In Dark Places, When All Other Lights Go Out.

A single-element ferroelectric state is observed in a black phosphorus-like bismuth layer, in which the ordered charge transfer and the regular atom distortion between sublattices happen simultaneously and ferroelectric switching is further visualized experim…

A hydrophobic cavity around an iron centre catches methane molecules for oxidation.

Historical observations of lunar eclipses in the High Medieval Period (1100–1300 CE), many of which were recorded by European monks, may aid our understanding of volcanism in the period. The research,

NASA and the James Webb Space Telescope industry team, led by Northrop Grumman Corporation, have won the prestigious National Aeronautic Association (NAA) Robert J. Collier Trophy for revolutionizing the field of astrophysics with the team’s pioneering design…

Modelling reaction pathways may be within range of near-term quantum machines

Key differences identified in the structure and function of human ribosomes compared with those of bacteria.

The reaction coordinate of aminoacyl-tRNA movement is altered on the human ribosome and the process is an order of magnitude slower compared with bacteria due to eukaryote-specific structural elements in the human ribosome and in the elongation factor eEF1A.

Neurons in the central amygdala contribute to the reward prediction error responses of dopamine neurons to facilitate reward learning, but are not involved in aversive learning.
