Plasma waves are a critical element to understanding the many mysteries of the gas giant’s turbulent, magnetically powerful atmosphere, the researchers say.

"Whether you want to explore dark energy, dying stars, galactic powerhouses, or probably even entirely new things we’ve never seen before, this survey will be a gold mine."

A nebula where young stars sculpt dragon-like forms has been imaged in colorful detail by the Dark Energy Camera in Chile.

After the sun goes out, what will happen to the solar system — and how long will it last?

A new analysis of decades' worth of observations has revealed that Uranus does indeed emit more heat than it receives from the rays of the Sun.

For the first time ever, researchers from McGill University have altered oat's DNA with great success.

A rare sperm whale tooth discovered in southern Spain reveals ancient Iberians' reverence for marine life and its ritual significance.

The asteroid is so dense, physicists say it could contain elements outside the periodic table.

Our first meeting was a bit awkward. One of us is an archaeologist who studies how past peoples interacted with their environments. Two of us are geophysicists who investigate interactions between solar activity and Earth's magnetic field.

New study links Triassic–Jurassic extinction to ocean acidification caused by volcanic CO2, offering insights for today's climate threats.

A stem-cell-based "organ-on-a-chip" model of ALS mimics early biological changes seen in the degenerative disease.

Scientists have cracked a century-old physics mystery by detecting magnetic signals in non-magnetic metals using only light and a revamped laser technique. Previously undetectable, these faint magnetic “whispers” are now measurable, revealing hidden patterns …

The rapid rise in global rocket launches could slow the recovery of the vital ozone layer, says Sandro Vattioni. The problem is being underestimated—yet it could be mitigated by forward-looking, coordinated action.
