Epaulette sharks, found in the Great Barrier

By studying how electric organs arose in different lineages of fish, scientists gain new insights into a long-standing question of evolutionary biology.

ISME Communications - Arm race among closely-related carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae clones

NASA has selected four mission concepts for additional research in the latest round of its astrophysics program, but budget constraints may cause some

The Sun will engulf nearby planets like Mercury, Venus and Earth during its last years. Here’s what will happen.

Scientific Reports - RSPO3 is a novel contraction-inducible factor identified in an “in vitro exercise model” using primary human myotubes

Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko is rich in organic molecules that play a key role in the development of carbon-based life.

A new study connected the seismic data from NASA's Mars InSight mission to the properties of rocks, sediments, and ice on the red planet. Here's what has been revealed.

For nearly a century, University of Michigan librarians thought their Galileo manuscript was “one of the great treasures” of their collection.

An ancient piece of Earth’s crust was found underneath the South-West of Western Australia.

Two fundamental factors affect all astrophotography—timing and location. If a camera happens to be at the right place at the right time, it can capture images that have never been seen before. And with the proliferation of cameras throughout the solar system,…

The flow of time from the past to the future is a central feature of how we experience the world. But precisely how this phenomenon, known as the arrow of time, arises from the microscopic interactions among particles and cells is a mystery—one that researche…

These peculiar benthic sharks use their fins to walk on the surface, and they can survive in oxygen-deficient conditions for about two hours.

Following the discovery of a second impact crater off the coast of Africa, we might have to rethink the end of the Cretaceous period.

The magnetic record stored in rocks documents the liquid core’s behavior and possibly when the inner core formed. Whether it formed half a billion or more than a billion years ago, however, is up for debate.

Large caves near the Moon’s equator maintain a temperate, stable daily temperature around 17°C.

By observing the field of globular cluster Palomar 2 with the Indian Astronomical Observatory (IAO), astronomers have discovered 32 new variable stars. The newfound variables are mostly RR Lyrae stars and cluster members. The finding is reported in a paper pu…

<p>Surrey physiotherapy clinic first in Canada to offer leading-edge treatment </p>

How do different materials react to the impact of ions? This is a question that plays an important role in many areas of research—for example, in nuclear fusion research, when the walls of the fusion reactor are bombarded by high-energy ions, but also in semi…

An international team of scientists finally found mathematical proof that slowly rotating Kerr black holes are stable.

Iowa State University researchers have identified the first crops to be grown on Mars to support further food growth and farming to support astronaut life.

The space community has processed raw data from the James Webb space telescope into a mesmerizing view of the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy.

It will reach ‘opposition’ – lined up with sun and Earth – on Tuesday, when it will be visible without aid in dark rural areas, according to Chinese astronomer.
