The core–mantle boundary (CMB) is the interface between the earth's iron metal core and the thick rocky layer of mantle just above the core. It is a world of extremes—temperatures thousands of degrees Fahrenheit and pressures over a million times the

By Gwynne Dyer   WHAT could be so rare and valuable that it would be worth going all the way to the Moon to get some? If you ask Google, it will tell you Helium-3, an isotope of Helium that is the ideal fuel fo

A newly discovered object is stretching our understanding of what constitutes a galaxy.

NASA's Mars helicopter, Ingenuity, only managed to fly a third of its planned distance during its second flight, and its team back on Earth says it knows why.

Going through a breakup hurts, no matter who it is. Here are the ten ways having a broken heart will change a person.

In 1859, French astronomer and mathematician Urbain Le Verrier detected something strange: Mercury deviated in its dance around the Sun, defying the orderly precession predicted by Newtonian physics.

NASA has selected a crew of four volunteers to participate in a simulated journey to Mars inside a habitat at the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.

It turns out space helmets serve a dual purpose — to keep air in and stink out.

“Unfortunately, IVF success still involves a big element of chance, but that’s something we’re hoping our research can change,” one study author said.

Virginia Tech researchers have conducted the most comprehensive study to date on subsidence, the gradual sinking of an area of land.

Once upon a cosmic time, scientists assumed that stars apply an eternal magnetic brake, causing an endless slowdown of their rotation. With new observations and sophisticated methods, they have now peeked into a star's magnetic secrets and found that they are…

The Middle Eastern nation will get to send one of its astronauts to Gateway as part of the deal.

A three-ringed structure in the planet-forming zone of a circumstellar disk where metals and minerals serve as a reservoir of planetary building blocks. A research team, including astronomers of the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA), detected a three-…

Redwire said Jan. 10 the two unfurlable solar array wings it provided for Ovzon 3, the first commercial satellite to use the space technology company’s Roll-Out Solar Array hardware, have successfully deployed in geostationary orbit.

Astronomers observe the hypergiant star RW Cephei dimming and brightening. The unusual behavior is attributed to the ejection of a gas cloud, offering unique insights into stellar events.

New developments on a nearly century-old concept for a "self-eating" rocket engine capable of flight beyond the Earth's atmosphere could help the U.K. take a bigger bite of the space industry.

In the chaotic environment of open star clusters, strong gravitational interactions between bodies can launch individual stars far outside the cluster, even outside our galaxy, the Milky Way. Now, for the first time researchers have mapped several of those st…

In a magnificent first, we finally have direct observational evidence of the stellar process that produces neutron stars and black holes.

Moore's Law, a fundamental scaling principle for electronic devices, forecasts that the number of transistors on a chip will double every two years, ensuring more computing power—but a limit exists.

Grab your binoculars and check out these celestial events.

Researchers have described a green method for obtaining copper oxide nanoparticles from the noni plant (Morinda citrifolia), common in Asia. These copper oxide nanoparticles exhibit bactericidal properties. Moreover, antibacterial activity depends on the phys…

Beijing, Jan 10: China’s space agency said on Wednesday that its latest lunar explorer had arrived at the launch site in preparation for a mission to the moon in the first half of this year. State broadcaster CCTV posted photos on its website of the unit unde…

A concept rocket engine, called Ouroborous-3, gradually burns up as it is test fired. It "could pave the way for cheaper launches of small satellites and wou...
