JWST can do more than just take pretty — and sometimes blobby — images. Using its spectrograph, researchers can measure the composition of distant objects. In a first-of-its-kind measurement, JWST revealed carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of the exoplanet WAS…

The strong terahertz (THz) waves generated by femtosecond laser pulse induced gas plasma have drawn extensive attention owing to the ultra-wide spectral bandwidth, the high electric field strength, and no material damage threshold. However, the abundant and m…

Astronomers found this alien planet via its unique star wobbles as it moves through space. Know in detail here.

A unique galaxy suggests a novel method to search for rare stars, which may have been previously overlooked and misidentified.

A new study suggests using the universe itself as the laboratory to prove one of the biggests puzzles of the cosmos, and existence

SpaceX continues to test its next-generation Starship rocket in Texas. It fired all six Raptor engines on its latest prototype, the S24. This is an essential step toward the spaceship’s first orbital flight. Pentagon is [...]

You may have heard that exposure to blue light can disrupt your sleep. As it turns, out it's also harmful to wildlife.

This interesting image from the HiRISE camera on the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter shows a field of fascinating dunes called barchan dunes. These dunes have formed along a cliff in Chasma Boreale, in the North Pole of Mars.

The International Space Station (ISS) took a nighttime photo while orbiting 261 miles above Earth, looking across the Mediterranean Sea from north Africa to southern Europe. From the bottom center to the upper right, the city lights of Algiers, Alger

Human perception is not always a faithful representation of the physical world, as it can be significantly biased by the surrounding context. For example, the orientation of a vertical grating is perceived away from that of the surrounding gratings, and a sof…

Researchers have discovered remains of a massive coral reef in a desert plain they previously thought was featureless.

Aboard the International Space Station, Expedition 67 Flight Engineers Kjell Lindgren, Bob Hines, and Jessica Watkins of NASA discussed life and work aboard ...

NASA's VIPER rover is scheduled to land on the Moon in 2024 to look for water as part of the mission to eventually put people on Mars.

A team of researchers from Tsinghua University, working with a colleague from Jilin University, has developed a new 3D nanoprinting technique that uses semiconducting quantum dots. In their paper published in the journal Science, the group describes their new…

A team of researchers at Brave Analytics GmbH, working with a colleague from the Gottfried Schatz Research Center and another from the Institute of Physics, all in Austria, has developed a device that is capable of conducting real-time nanoparticle characteri…

Nature likes spirals – from the whirlpool of a hurricane, to pinwheel-shaped protoplanetary disks around newborn stars, to the vast realms of spiral galaxies across our universe. Now astronomers are bemused to find young stars that are spiraling into the cent…

The Long and Short of a Supergene for Efficient Pollination Researchers have solved the century-old mystery of a supergene that causes efficient cross-pollination in flowers. The results reveal that sequence length variation at the DNA level is important for …

Scientists have solved the century-old mystery of a supergene that causes efficient cross-pollination in flowers. The results show that sequence length variation at the DNA level is important for the evolution of two forms of flowers that differ in the length…

A group of geologists from the University of Innsbruck, have, for the first time, expansively recorded the gain and loss of ice in Alpine ice caves across the last 2,000 years.

China has become the third country to discover a new mineral on the moon. It found a phosphate in crystal form, which it named Changesite-(Y), in lunar samples it collected in 2020.

Black holes are astronomical objects with extremely strong gravitational pulls from which not even light can escape. While the idea of bodies that would trap light has been around since the 18th century, the first direct observation of black holes took place …
