Last week, the previous chair's resignation was accepted.

A fossil on display at Montana State University's Museum of the Rockies reveals how dinosaurs in the Tyrannosaurus genus may have subdued prey, and the specimen is the focus of a new collaborative research publication between scientists at MSU and the Univers…

Ancient Giant Shark Discovery Rewrites History has 2 comments.

An international team of astronomers has performed multi-wavelength observations of the nearby Araish galaxy to investigate the origin of its radio emission. As a result, they detected an extended radio jet of this galaxy. The finding was reported February 11…

Dr. Marta Chmiel-Chrzanowska and her colleagues conducted a multidisciplinary analysis of the only known preserved wooden coffin from the Roman Iron Age, the Princess of Bagicz. The study, published in Archaeometry, used dendrochronology to resolve a long-sta…

A 125-million-year-old dinosaur just rewrote what we thought we knew about prehistoric life. Scientists in China have uncovered an exceptionally preserved juvenile iguanodontian with fossilized skin so detailed that individual cells are still visible. Even mo…

For the first time, researchers in China have accurately quantified how chaos increases in a quantum many-body system as it evolves over time. Combining experiments and theory, a team led by Yu-Chen Li at the University of Science and Technology of China show…

Take your stargazing to the next level with these technologically advanced smart telescopes, binoculars and more.

The NASA/SpaceX Crew-12 mission launched four astronauts on a journey to the International Space Station.

Ancient footprints in New Mexico, dated to 23,000 years ago, reveal humans lived in North America 10,000 years earlier than previously believed.

SpaceX launches helped make Kennedy Space Center feel active again, but that routine has quietly shifted. Here's what changed and what comes next.

Lasers, devices that emit intense beams of coherent light in specific directions, are widely used in research settings and are central components of various technologies, including optical clocks (i.e., systems that can keep time relying on light waves as opp…

"It's really difficult to overstate how bad we are at finding intermediate mass black holes."

It’s not that rare for the Moon to pass in front of Mercury, but it seldom happens when it is this easy to watch.

A new SpaceX effort to provide space traffic coordination services has attracted attention and praise in part because of the conditions it places on users.

For 30 years, Hollywood taught the world how dinosaurs sounded. Now two rare fossils are shattering that iconic roar.

In A World Appears, Michael Pollan investigates whether animals, plants and even AI might be conscious

A newly observed acoustic time crystal uses sound waves to levitate particles that oscillate through nonreciprocal interactions. The discovery challenges classical physics and hints at applications in technology and biology. Time crystals are systems made up …

At just 500 kilometers across, Saturn's sixth-largest moon would fit comfortably inside the United Kingdom, with room to spare.

These researchers captured photos that wouldn’t look out of place in an art gallery and used them to confirm new species of comb jellies never recorded in Colombia before.

For decades, depictions of Triceratops and its kin have been driven by bone alone. Now, paleontologists in Japan have mapped the soft-tissue anatomy of these horned dinosaurs, revealing unexpected structures that may explain how they regulated temperature and…

Scientists aren't fully sure what this means for Antarctica's future, however.

Some bacterial species possess an astonishing ability: They use Earth's magnetic field to orient themselves. To better understand this mechanism, the team led by Argovia-Professor Martino Poggio from the Swiss Nanoscience Institute and the Department of Physi…
