The quasiparticle of this semiconductor moves slowly, steadily and unimpeded from other electrons, allowing it to travel faster than those in silicon.

Researchers introduce a pioneering breakthrough in the world of nanomotors -- the DNA origami nanoturbine. This nanoscale device could represent a paradigm shift, harnessing power from ion gradients or electrical potential across a solid-state nanopore to dri…

Scientists have received the first transmissions from a muon detector placed 1 km underground in the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory.

The map could help the agency decide where the first astronauts to the Red Planet should land. The more available water, the less missions will need to bring.

More than 70 years ago, astronomers were doing a sky survey when three bright stars they just saw disappeared, never to be seen again.

The discovery has surprised scientists.

Canadian-French astrophysicist Hubert Reeves, who was renowned for his work popularizing space science, died Friday aged 91, his son said in a post on Facebook.

Researchers mapped out "cake-like" fossil layers belonging to a group of ancient marine creatures from the supercontinent Gondwana that mysteriously died off 390 million years ago.

Using a network of radio telescopes on Earth and in space, astronomers have captured the most detailed view ever of a jet of plasma from a supermassive black hole. The jet travels at nearly the speed of light and shows complex, twisted patterns near its sourc…

The presence of an infrared aurora on the cold, outer planet of Uranus has been confirmed for the first time by University of Leicester astronomers.

This context-based interpretation by adults may provide valuable feedback, aiding babies in language acquisition.

Dragonfly's flight system is undergoing rigorous testing in a wind tunnel, with varying wind speeds to simulate the environment of Saturn's moon Titan.

Why, what did you think they were for?

Some 30 years ago, a young engineer named Christopher Walker was home in the evening making chocolate pudding when he got what turned out to be a very

It’s less than one 50-millionth of the size of the Large Hadron Collider, and probably a fair bit cheaper too.

Launching in May 2027, NASA's Roman Space Telescope's groundbreaking mission will revolutionize our understanding of the Milky Way Galaxy and beyond, uncovering exoplanets, black holes, and much more.

Astronomers, aided by space and ground telescopes, including NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, uncover secrets of a brilliant gamma-ray burst and neutron star merger.

A scientist who found the oldest water ever discovered on Earth decided the best course of action was, of course, to drink it. Professor Barbara Sherwood Lollar was leading a team of geologists studying a Canadian mine in 2016 when she made the remarkable dis…

New findings from NASA's Curiosity rover reveal that Mars might have been a planet of ancient rivers, providing hope for past life conditions.

An undisclosed space operation is planned Thursday from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station — but neither SpaceX, NASA nor United Launch Alliance have scheduled any missions for liftoff, according to News 6 partner Florida Today.

NASA's Juno mission uncovers a spooky "Face" on Jupiter, just in time for Halloween, while also capturing electrifying lightning activity on the giant gas giant.

Venus’s atmosphere is linked to its interior and can be used to infer the planet’s evolution. Observed atmospheric N2, CO2 and surface pressures are best explained by an early phase of plate tectonics, operating for at least 1 billion years.

Two fungi that are used to make food products may have probiotic benefits on inflammation in the stomach, per a recent study.
