Fierce solar activity destroying Starlink satellites

Scientists identified a hidden "sixth sense" in geckos that's upending up what we thought we knew about animal hearing.

A new machine learning model shows that star-shaped brain cells may be responsible for the brain's memory capacity, and someday, it could inspire advances in AI and Alzheimer's research.

New research published by Michigan State University astrophysicists could help scientists answer a century-old question: Where did galactic cosmic rays come from?

A team of researchers at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University (MSU) has discovered that cobalt-70 isotopes form different nuclear shapes when their energy levels differ only slightly. The findings, published in Nature Commun…

A black hole has blasted out a surprisingly powerful jet in the distant universe, according to a new study from NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and discussed

University of Michigan chemist Charles McCrory and his research group, along with Jesús Velázquez's lab at the University of California, Davis and Anastassia Alexandrova's lab at the University of California, Los Angeles, have developed a method to capture ca…

Physicists at the University of Oxford have set a new global benchmark for the accuracy of controlling a single quantum bit, achieving the lowest-ever error rate for a quantum logic operation—just 0.000015%, or one error in 6.7 million operations. This record…

SpaceX may soon have up to nine active launch pads. Most competitors have one or two.

Captured from over a billion kilometers away, NASA’s Cassini spacecraft immortalized Earth as a tiny dot beneath Saturn’s majestic rings.

Recent scholarship has concluded that Neanderthals made a second major migration from Eastern Europe to Central and Eastern Eurasia between 120,000 and 60,000 years ago. But the routes they took have long been a mystery—primarily because there are few archaeo…

A new study using the Event Horizon Telescope finds that black hole jets speed up as they move away, defying long-held ideas.

New images of a young star, 2MASSJ1612, could have captured the birth of a giant gas planet larger than Jupiter.

"We wanted to find out how Giant Radio Galaxies grow sooooo big."

An osprey flying over Myrtle Beach dropped the small shark from a tree after being harassed by crows.

SLC35B1 transports ATP into the ER, and its structure offers potential for targeted therapies in diseases linked to ER stress. A team of scientists has solved a long-standing question in cell biology by uncovering how the cell’s primary energy source, ATP, is…

A reinvigorated push for nuclear power in space

A massive landslide in Greenland unleashed a towering tsunami that rattled the Earth’s crust. The seismic waves continued for days, leaving scientists stunned by the lasting impact. Cutting-edge satellite technology captured the unexpected aftermath in incred…

Astronomers have conducted very long baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations of an active galaxy known as Markarian 110. As a result, they detected a relativistic jet in this galaxy. The finding was reported in a research paper published June 4 on the arX…

To make this plan a reality, Interlune needs larger lunar landers to come online.

Satellites soaring high above Earth have revealed exactly how wispy clouds are created by the giant plumes of ash belched upwards in a volcanic eruption.

The fastest humans have ever traveled is 39,937.7 kilometers per hour.

The strange-looking wound was made by another predator, say experts from the California White Shark Project.

The start of June marked meteorological summer while astronomical summer starts for the northern hemisphere. It is the astronomical end of spring and start of summer.
