NASA scientists said this week that they would continue to focus on Io, Jupiter's volcano-laced moon, with multiple close flybys of their Juno spacecraft.

A new study found bird diversity increased in North Carolina mountain forest areas severely burned by wildfire in 2016, reinforcing that while wildfire can pose risks to safety and property, it can be beneficial to wildlife. The study results could help fores…

It takes chemist Liaisan Khasanova less than a minute to turn an ordinary silica glass tube into a printing nozzle for a very special 3D printer. The chemist inserts the capillary tube—which is just one millimeter thick—into a blue device, closes the flap and…

Look at all those glorious galaxies. Just look at them.

The mission meant to focus on Jupiter is giving us insights into its unique icy satellites.

It's a significant step in Japanese space exploration.

The stars call to us, as Carl Sagan once said. Given the human drive to explore our world and expand our reach, it is likely only a matter of time before we begin to build our homes in the solar system. The moon and Mars could be acceptable destinations, but …

NA­­SA’s James Webb Space Telescope was selected for the 2022 Bloomberg 50, its annual list of icons, leaders, and innovators that have changed the global business landscape over the past year.

In a new experiment, researchers used lasers to highlight airborne particles that are given off when uncovered toilets are flushed, which could spread dangerous pathogens.

Since July 2022, a miniature satellite about the size of a shoebox has been orbiting Earth and monitoring how much solar energy reaches the atmosphere. Now, scientists are finalizing their analysis of the first five months of measurements it gathered while in…

Winning essays resulted in the trip of a lifetime for a group of young space enthusiasts from different parts of the country.

Wasps announce Christopher Holland has formally taken ownership of the Coventry-based club.

Cells require an ongoing flow of energy in order to function properly. The cellular metabolism needs to adjust to guarantee a steady supply of energy during starving periods, when no nutrients are taken up from food.

The JWST finally opened its golden, infrared eye and gave us a glimpse of our universe in stunning, unprecedented detail.

New Delhi: A new research offers plausible explanations for mysterious hazy circles of radio emission deep in celestial space called Odd Radio Circles (ORCs) detected recently using some of the most sensitive international radio telescopes.Astronomer

NASA and Roscosmos are investigating yesterday's troublesome spacecraft leak, which could affect the astronauts' ride back to Earth.

Scientists analyzed new measurements showing that the light emitted by stars outside our galaxy is two to three times brighter than the light from known populations of galaxies, challenging assumptions about the number and environment of stars in the universe…

Against an inky black backdrop, the blue swirls of spiral galaxy NGC 6956 stand out radiantly. NGC 6956 is a barred spiral galaxy, a common type of spiral galaxy with a bar-shaped structure of stars in its center. This galaxy exists 214 million light-years aw…
