The Webb Telescope recently imaged a region of the Orion Nebula associated with star birth, and the result is about...

The microscopic structure of black holes is poorly understood, physicists say in a new study, and could open a window to solving cosmic mysteries.

Reference lists for more than 60 million journal studies in Crossref are now free to view and reuse.

The surface of our planet could be even more hospitable to life if the gas giant shifted its orbit.

On the exploitation of cosmos.

An observatory is defined as a building that contains a telescope used for astronomical observations. The first observatory was built by Galileo in 1609.

Time spent on a walk around the Moon depends on many factors, such as how quickly you can walk, how many hours per day you walk, and which route you take to avoid certain topographic dangers. Let's theorize about how long such a walk would take.

Engineers developed a new sprayable ice-shedding material called the “fracture-controlled surface” that is 100 times stronger

Controllers with the CAPSTONE mission are attempting to regain control of the Moon-bound probe, which is currently tumbling, experiencing temperature...

A new study suggests that many more planets may have large amounts of water than previously thought--as much as half water and half rock. The catch? All that water is probably embedded in the rock, rather than flowing as oceans or rivers on the surface.

It took a break from discovering the secrets of the Universe.

The scale of the biodiversity crisis is shown by recreating 130,000 years of mammal food webs. A recent study, published in the journal Science, provides the clearest picture yet of the long-term effects of land mammal declines on food webs. It's not a pretty…

Researchers recommend that when babies are crying too much and can't sleep, mothers should carry them steadily for about five minutes with few abrupt movements, followed by about eight minutes of sitting before laying them down for sleep.

Mental illness is a growing public health problem. In 2019, an estimated 1 in 8 people around the world were affected by mental disorders like depression, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. While scientists have long known that many of these disorders run in …

NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter has made its 31st flight to Mars, making a short jump and approaching Mars’ ancient river delta. The 4-pound (1.8-kg)

Nanobubbles are extremely small (i.e., nanoscopic) gaseous cavities that some physicists observed in aqueous solutions, typically after specific substances were dissolved in them. While some studies reported the observation of these incredibly tiny bubbles, s…

This statement from the expert comes after the James Webb Space Telescope took its first image of a planet outside our solar system 385 light-years from Earth.

New research by Columbia University astrophysicists Luca Comisso and Lorenzo Sironi shows how and when these particles form and offers clues to questions that have troubled scientists since the 1940s.

As any frustrated parent knows, there's no magic way to get a crying baby to calm, let alone fall asleep.

Researchers from the RIKEN Centre for Brain Science in Japan claim to have the 'recipe' to help stop babies crying - and it's surprisingly simple.

Shallow-water mining projects are already underway in Namibia and Indonesia, and projects have been proposed in Mexico, New Zealand, and Sweden, but the effects of these projects haven't been fully investigated. A new study published on September 13 in the jo…

For decades, scientists have been trying to solve a vexing problem regarding the weather in outer space: At unpredictable times, high-energy particles bombard the Earth and objects outside the Earth's atmosphere with radiation that can endanger the lives of a…

Early mammal classification is controversial.
