Was this a lonely outlier, or was there a whole giant species we’ve missed until now?

If the impact occurs,

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has captured a striking cosmic "question mark."

While it has become a word, laser used to be an acronym: “light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation”. But there is an even older technology called a maser, which is the sa…

Long ago, this was a sprawling lake. Today, the dry basin tells a story of ancient climate shifts, human resilience, and a dramatic landscape shaped by time.

In its first moments, the infant universe was a trillion-degree-hot soup of quarks and gluons. These elementary particles zinged around at light speed, creating a "quark-gluon plasma" that lasted for only a few millionths of a second. The primordial goo then …

Buried beneath Patagonia's soil, a rare dinosaur species has surfaced, and it's one of the most complete ever found.

Deep beneath the waves, something is shifting. Life once drawn to sunken whales and wood is missing, leaving the seafloor strangely untouched.

What if the key to superconductivity has been hiding in plain sight, inside a strange quantum phase we barely understand?

A new theory suggests that dark matter, which makes up most of the universe's mass, might not be invisible, it might be in another dimension.

Two doughnut-shaped surfaces look completely different but share identical measurements. It took 150 years to find them.

Imagine: You lost your car's cargo rack, but didn't notice until you reached your destination.

Buried for 9 million years in Peru’s desert, a giant shark fossil has been unearthed, and what scientists found inside left them speechless.

This study shows that many small RNAs in Capsella rubella pollen originate from maternal tissues. These mobile small RNAs support proper pollen development, revealing that non-cell-autonomous small RNAs are crucial for successful plant reproduction.

Liquid nitrogen can be used safely in food preparation — but one man's stomach burst after he threw back a cocktail that had been cooled with the substance.

Research suggests men require a gender-specific approach to weight loss, fusing camaraderie, fitness targets and group exercise

These frozen methane bubbles look like stacked UFOs hovering beneath the ice. Bacteria release gas that freezes mid-rise.

Liftoff of the GPS III-SV09 mission occurred at 11:53 p.m. ET on Tuesday (Jan. 27).

The now-extinct animal was one of three species discovered within fossilised tree resin from a museum in Germany.

Just like animals, galaxies often have bizarre, unusual, or even unique properties. But finding many, all at once, really does raise alarms.

A team of scientists from the University of Manchester have uncovered some of the earliest evidence of advanced, camera-like eyes in two jawless fish found just south of the Scottish city…

The teeth of white sharks are not static weapons but living records of a shark’s changing lifestyle.

Astronomers have spotted runaway black holes screaming through space, leaving trails of stars in in their wake.

"We've often seen the 'baby pictures' of planets forming, but until now, the 'teenage years' have been a missing link."

In its natural state, peatland is one of the largest carbon stores in nature. This is because the soil is so waterlogged and low in oxygen that dead plant material breaks down very slowly. The plants do not fully decompose but instead accumulate over thousand…
