Some bacteria appear to encase their genomes in proteins called histones — which weren’t thought to exist in bacterial cells.

Planetary scientists have made a fascinating hypothesis about Saturn's smallest moon, Mimas, which may be home to a "stealth" ocean.

Some strategies may help robots rebuild trust after mistakes, but new research shows it's a case of "three strikes and you're out."

University of Auckland astrophysicist Jan Eldridge and her international collaborators have identified two stars as vanishingly rare among hundreds of billions of stars in the galaxy.

Researchers used a chemical synthesis robot and computationally cost-effective AI model to successfully predict and validate highly selective catalysts. Their results are published in the journal Angewandte Chemie International Edition.
