Scientists say our perception of time arises from microscopic interactions among particles and cells, but how this actually takes place is still unclear.

Based on the sounds space makes, I think I'll pass on those space tourism travel plans.

The first mutation of the wingless gene was found by accident in Drosophila in the 1970s, following the observation of flies that did not possess wings, hence its name.

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured stunning images of the biggest planet

NASA will test new science equipment for future missions with a sounding rocket launch August 22 from its Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia.

It takes around half an hour to get to the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory. Thirty minutes may not sound like a long time, but that's half an hour spent plunging downwards in a truck as it twists and turns its way deeper into the pitch-black tunnels of…

Researchers have successfully synthesized fumarate (fumaric acid), a raw material for unsaturated polyester resin, by combining carbon dioxide (CO2) with pyruvate (derived from biomass), using two biocatalysts: malate dehydrogenase and fumarase. Fumarate is c…

Larvae with extremely inflated trunks, fossilized in amber, are giving zoologists insights into the evolution and lifestyle of early lacewings.

One hypothesis for the nature of dark matter is that some of it could be self-interacting, meaning the individual particles interact slightly with one another.

Learn what this means for your body.

Likely to survive in the oral cavity, bacteria have evolved to divide along their longitudinal axis without parting from one another. A research team co-led by environmental cell biologist Silvia Bulgheresi from the University of Vienna and microbial genetici…

An astonishing study based on geologic evidence shows evidence of a second rock hitting West Africa

CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida: The world’s newest and biggest space telescope is showing Jupiter as never before, auroras and all. Scientists released the shots on Monday (Aug 22) of the solar system's biggest planet. The James Webb Space Telescope took the photos …

Mars is dry and seemingly lifeless today, but billions of years ago it had lots and lots of water.

The history of water on Mars flows a lot deeper than scientists once believed. A new project has mapped hundreds...

Climate scientists are banking on a European Space Agency’s satellite to reveal how much of a role forests play within the carbon cycle, as Sky's Tom Clarke ...

The satellites streaked across the sky Friday and Saturday night. Here's how you can see them on Monday and other nights this week.

Against the backdrop of a rapidly warming planet, the need to better understand the nature and long-term impact of positive climatic feedback loops—processes that accelerate the effects of warming—becomes critically important.

Some of these galaxies might seem familiar, but stare a little longer and you'll find a few new wonders.

The crust has survived massive amounts of upheaval and change.

“The whole thing is assembled like a mosaic, and each tile is made up of thousands of photos,” astrophotographer Andrew McCarthy said.

Cutting-edge analysis of fossil ape teeth reveals ancient seasonal change in Africa, long before human ancestors appeared. The method will be crucial for the future study of early hominins.

Similar robots could one day conduct remote and autonomous surgery in deep space.
