For over 180 million years, dinosaurs reigned supreme, contributing to the planet’s evolutionary progress. Then suddenly, 66-64 million years ago, they went extinct. Here's more into it.
A House hearing on space mining turned into a partisan debate about the viability of the nascent field and the jurisdiction of the committee to examine it.
Complex organic molecules detected in the gas phase are thought to be mostly formed on icy grains, but no unambiguous detection of icy COMs larger than CH3OH has been reported so far.
Abstract. Very metal-poor stars ($\rm [Fe/H] < -2$) in the Milky Way are fossil records of early chemical evolution and the assembly and structure of the Gal
Abstract. We simulate the formation of second-generation stars in young clusters with masses of 105 and 106 M⊙ within 30–100 Myr after the formation of clusters
NASA, Axiom Space and SpaceX are targeting January next year for the launch of Axiom Mission 3 (Ax-3), the third private astronaut mission to the International Space Station (ISS), NASA said on Tuesday.
A James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) image of the Cassiopeia A (Cas A) supernova remnant will be included in the White House’s first-ever Advent calendar. In a Sunday news release, NASA said that the image, along with the Advent calendar, was revealed as part…
Dr Anand explained, “We wanted to have longer observations. We wanted to give an opportunity to observe the full night.” The extended timeframe will allow attendees to witness how celestial objects m
Potteromyces asteroxylicola parasitized on an extinct species of lycopsid plant called Asteroxylon mackiei, according to a paper published in the journal Nature Communications.
When NASA’s OSIRIS-REx sample return capsule screamed its way through the upper atmosphere, it marked the first time the space agency had brought material from an asteroid back to Earth. Hundreds o…
(CNN) — Thousands of years ago, a star in our galaxy violently exploded and created a glowing supernova remnant called Cassiopeia A that has intrigued scientists for decades.
The James Webb Space Telescope was used to peer inside Cassiopeia A for an unprecedented look deep within the remnant of a star that exploded thousands of years ago.
Researchers plugged a "brain organoid" into an artificial intelligence system, using the neural tissue to help complete computational tasks. The experiment could mark a step toward "biocomputers."
University of Central Florida researcher Debashis Chanda, a professor at the NanoScience Technology Center, has developed a new technique to detect photons—elementary particles that span from visible light to radio frequencies and are instrumental in carrying…
