The new seismic data indicates the presence of a hitherto unknown layer of molten rock surrounding a liquid metallic core.

NASA researchers want to study the habitability of Titan's environment.

Images and video footage captured off Washington State show an orca punting a harbor seal 70 feet into the air.

Scientists have demonstrated that an AI system called a neural network can be trained to show "systematic compositionality," a key part of human intellect.

It could be used to simulate black holes and even improve mobile networks.

Researchers have uncovered a new type of fossil that suggests life in the oceans half a billion years ago.

NASA is demonstrating laser communications on multiple missions – showcasing the benefits infrared light can have for science and exploration missions

Contrary to conventional wisdom, a pair of black holes could exist in perfect pairs without leading to a cataclysmic merger, new research suggests. All it takes is a dose of cosmic expansion.

Thermo Fisher, the maker of scientific equipment, again reduced its financial guidance, citing a challenging macro environment.

Unleashing the Potential of Ancient Animals: Exploring the Use of Fossilized Proteins for Antibiotic Discovery - OPP.Today

This is the type of technology we'll need if we want the luxuries of high-speed WiFi on our future moon base.

The ability to find otherwise undetectable patterns in complex data with minimal operator intervention makes AI systems an ideal fit for manufacturing operations.

The ancestors of Europeans first settled in Crimea about 37,000 years ago, DNA analysis on two ancient individuals reveals.

Scientists have created the world's first nanophotonic electron accelerator, which speeds negatively charged particles with mini laser pulses and is small enough to fit on a coin.

A RIFF on what country is really about.

Seeing double: individual light receptors in fruit-fly eyes transmit two separate signals to perform distinct functions.

Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and their colleagues have built a superconducting camera containing 400,000 pixels—400 times more than any other device of its type.

The carbon allotrope cyclo[16]carbon has been synthesized using on-surface chemistry and characterized with scanning tunnelling microscopy and atomic force microscopy, revealing orbital densities and bond-length alternation, which show it to be doubly an…

The development of a 400,000-pixel superconducting nanowire single-photon detector array is described, improving the current state of the art by a factor of 400 and showing scalability well beyond the present demonstration.

In Drosophila, a subpopulation of reward-encoding dopaminergic neurons antagonizes punishment-encoding neurons and can override punishment or hunger cues in favour of reward-seeking behaviour.

Some of the diffuse intensities observed in electron diffraction patterns of face-centred cubic multi-principal element alloys are due to reflections from higher-order Laue zones.

A herd of hadrosaurs. A tiny Cretaceous mammal. The tooth of a predator. An “exceptional” fossil site in South America is giving scientists a new window into the end of the dinosaur age.

This study proposes a molecular mechanism of voltage activation in SLC9C1, a transporter essential for male fertility.

The meta-learning for compositionality approach achieves the systematicity and flexibility needed for human-like generalization.

The ever-growing number of satellites and subsequent reentries could be a danger to folks on Earth, some experts say.
