Scientific Reports - Densification in transparent SiO2 glasses prepared by spark plasma sintering

Biochemist Nick Lane shares 5 key insights from his new book, Transformer: The Deep Chemistry of Life and Death.

Nature highlights three key graphics from the week in science and research.

The Moon's darkest places can now be seen by ETH Zürich developed AI.

Palaeontologists in Portugal have unearthed the fossilised skeleton of what could be the largest dinosaur ever found in Europe.

The Arctic is no stranger to loss. As the region warms nearly four times faster than the rest of the world, glaciers collapse, wildlife suffers and habitats continue to disappear at a record pace.

Ever imagined what computers go through while analyzing gravitational wave data? Today's post sheds light on this computing nightmare.

Berkeley Lab scientists grew a lead-free solar material that forms its own electric field. The advance could simplify solar manufacturing techniques.

Galaxies marked by four jets extending deep into space may form more simply than previously thought.

Scientists have long thought early galaxies to be chaotic, misshapen messes — but new James Webb imagery proves that theory to be completely false.

Researchers at Osaka Metropolitan University have observed "baby stars" in the Small Magellanic Cloud, in an environment similar to the early universe. Near one of the baby stars they found molecular outflow, which has similar properties to ones seen in the M…

A team of researchers led by CU Boulder is sending some unexpected hitchhikers to the moon: Twelve bags filled with baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), the same kind of hard-working cells that make bread rise and ferment beer and wine.

A team of Skoltech researchers has published a series of three papers dealing with various aspects of how salt from the ocean water and other salts penetrate into frozen soil that contains gas hydrates—icelike crystals composed of water and gas, mostly methan…

Analogue provides insight into how turbulence drives angular momentum transfer

If your computer crashes, it might be due to a star that exploded somewhere in the Universe millions of years ago.

New study proposes using TENGs having an inertial mass on their surface as self-powered seismic detectors (SEIS-TENGs) for earthquake monitoring.

A team of researchers at Universidad de Oviedo in Spain reports findings that could explain how the jellyfish Turritopsis dohrnii is able to live, at least in theory, forever. In their paper published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the gr…

Galactic superwinds – large outflows of gas created by a combination of supernova explosions and stellar winds – are closely connected to a galaxy’s earliest stages of development and evolution, including aspects like its size, shape, and even how many stars …

In the early 20th century, an exotic fungus nearly drove the American chestnut out of existence. Researchers say today it's functionally extinct.

We see if the Create A Night Sky Projection Kit is worth the cash as a build-your-own star projector.

Astronauts have successfully grown rice in China's space station, which might hold the promise of pr

China’s first solar probing satellite released its observation results in Beijing on Tuesday, setting five
