NASA has revealed that some asteroids are aged early by the Sun, with surface rocks fracturing in just 10,000-1,00,000 years. It also said that surface regeneration happens a lot quicker on asteroids than on Earth.
While the Delta Aquariids can be difficult to spot, the lack of light pollution from the New Moon will make any shooting stars really stand out in the night sky.
MIT researchers have successfully demonstrated the ability to digitally fabricate plasma sensors for use on spacecraft and satellites to determine the ion energy distribution and chemical composition in the atmosphere.
Scientists have successfully transformed dead spiders into robotic gripping claws. The new field of research is known as “necrobotics” and could create cheap, effective, and biodegradable alternatives to current robot systems.
NASA Administrator Bill Nelson recently accused China of plotting a military takeover of the moon. He noted the several successful landings the Chinese have achieved on the lunar surface. Through its English-language mouthpiece, the Global Times, the Chinese …
The research could be used to develop more targeted kidney cancer drugs. Researchers from Sweden's Karolinska Institutet have discovered a connection between reduced mitochondrial content in cells and resistance to treatment for a lethal type of kidney cancer…
The Orion Nebula (M42) is perhaps the most famous deep-sky object, pictured here at right, with the Running Man Nebula (NGC 1977) at left. This <a href="https://theastroenthusiast.com/a-luminous-m42/
The researchers find one of the earliest pieces of evidence supporting the usage of fire using cutting-edge AI methods. There's a saying that where there's smoke, there's fire, and Weizmann Institute of Science researchers are working hard to explore that cla…
In the northernmost region of the earth the arctic permafrost is melting at an accelerated rate. For more than a decade, an international team of researchers from ETH Zurich, the University of Alaska Fairbanks, and the German Aerospace Center have observed to…
Heavenly bodies are always in motion: Pushing back the asteroid probe’s blastoff date could require a new trajectory, longer travel time, and much more power.
Alphabet subsidiary DeepMind is releasing the structures of every protein known to science as identified by the AI AlphaFold. The AI transformed science and boosted research efforts across biology.
A ‘nano-petri dish’ developed at Manchester University is providing scientists with footage of atomic scale interactions, an advance that could help in the development of green technologies.
Remnants of a large, newly launched Chinese rocket are expected to streak back through the atmosphere this coming weekend in an uncontrolled re-entry the Beijing government said on Wednesday would be closely tracked but poses little risk to anyone on the grou…
