Once deployed, the infrared telescope will detect asteroids 20 meters or larger hidden by the Sun's glare at least three weeks in advance of them hitting Earth.

By using nuclear pore complex mimics, the authors demonstrate that the cytoplasm-facing Nup358 provides a dock for the HIV-1 capsid, and the nucleoplasm-facing Nup153 positions the capsid for NPC entry. Nup358 and Nup153 thus create an affinity gradient which…

Scientists have proposed that the moon dust can also lessen Earth’s solar radiation, in addition to climate change alone. Click to read more.

The large, low-albedo asteroids in the main belt between 3.0 au and 3.4 au share spectral characteristics and history with Ceres. Accreted in different parts of the outer Solar System, they might have been implanted into the main belt by the dynamic upheaval …

When optical beams comprising photons tend to travel via fibers, they lead to vibrations that produce acoustic waves, consisting of phonons.

A study by the "Microbiota, Infection and Inflammation" research group at the Foundation for the Promotion of Health and Biomedical Research of Valencia Region (Fisabio), an agency of the Conselleria de Sanitat Universal i Salut Pública, has identified the ab…

It was a good week for physics as an international team of astrophysicists found evidence that black holes serve as a source of dark energy—their measurements of supermassive black holes aligned with predictions made by Einstein's theory of gravity. Also, a t…

Scientists believe that a huge planet which has never been seen by astronomers could be lurking, almost invisibly, at the dark edges of our solar system.

ESA's Euclid mission is undergoing the final test before launch in July 2023.

On the largest scales, the universe is ordered into a web-like pattern: galaxies are pulled together into clusters, which are connected by filaments and separated by voids. These clusters and filaments contain dark matter, as well as regular matter like gas a…

Light pollution is affecting our long connection with the stars, as well as wildlife navigation and migration. Here's how we can fix it.

Published in the Nature Chemistry journal last week, the international study has implications for the storage of important fuels and medicinal gases.

NASA Shared: Newborn Stars Spotted For the First Time The American Space and Aviation Administration's (NASA) James Webb Telescope has succeeded in imaging newly formed stars for the first time in a g

Using three ground-based telescopes in Chile, astronomers have conducted a search for variable stars in the open cluster NGC 6611. In result, they detected 95 variables and the majority of them are most likely cluster members. The discovery was published Febr…

Recycling high-value rare earth elements from NdFeB waste can save resources, reduce industrial waste, protect the environment and bring considerable economic benefits. However, most traditional recovery methods take a long time to process, have high acid con…

Researchers from Hebei University of Science and Technology have developed an additive for asphalt that may keep roads ice-free and negate the need to spread salt on the surface.

Scientific Reports - Directional asymmetry in gonad length indicates moray eels (Teleostei, Anguilliformes, Muraenidae) are “right-gonadal”

Construction has begun on the second phase of China’s “compound eye”, a radar system that scans space in search of asteroids on a collision course with the Earth.

By observing an unexpected trail in the gas cloud surrounding a dwarf galaxy, an international team of researchers has now found what they consider a potential candidate...

Scientists say they’ve discovered an eternally cosmic rock in Antarctica, an extremely rare meteorite containing some of the oldest material in the solar

Robots could be valuable assistants for most first responders, as they could help them to remotely monitor or intervene in areas that are inaccessible or life-threatening for humans. Firefighters, who are at high risk of getting injured during their missions,…
