The network of satellites developed by SpaceX are sometimes mistaken for UFOs.

Infection activates gene expression for pigmentation, suppresses immune response.

ESA released a new video showing the final moments before its satellite was deliberately destroyed in Earth's atmosphere.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has recently garnered attention among materials science researchers owing to its ability to form two-dimensional nanosheets like graphene. The nanosheets are created by the stacking of S–Mo–S layers interacting via Van der Waals in…

Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing have used machine learning to perform error correction for quantum computers—a crucial step for making these devices practical—using an autonomous correction system that despite being approximate, can ef…

German chemists introduce a photocatalytic method that harnesses light energy to activate water, potentially simplifying hydrogen production.

The possible moonquake was detected by India's Chandrayaan-3 mission on its third day on the lunar surface.

The road from breakthrough in the lab to practical technology can be a long and bumpy one. The lithium-sulfur battery is an example. It has notable advantages over current lithium-ion batteries powering vehicles. But it has yet to dent the market despite inte…

As the only mammal that can truly fly, bats have evolved a variety of unique characteristics that allow their bodies to cope with the physical challenge of flapping through the night.

In the 1960s, when scientists conducted excavations at a site dating back 1.4 million years in northern Israel, they encountered a baffling discovery - they uncovered nearly 600 stone ‘balls’ amongst other more conventional stone tools.

Two Japanese astronomers have found possible evidence of an Earth-like planet within our solar system. Patryk Sofia Lykawka of Kindai University and Takashi Ito of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan said they predict the existence of Ea

Researchers accidentally stumbled on a way to measure the size of the accretion disks of dust, gas and plasma that surround black holes.

Light from the globular cluster Terzan 12 is distorted by gas and dust, casting the image in a reddish hue.

These asteroids aren't expected to threaten the planet, the American space agency said.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) in carpenter ants isn't just a protective boundary, but actively shapes ant behavior.

Bethesda’s open-world space RPG has some ridiculous possibilities

A star like our own sun in a nearby galaxy is gradually being eaten away by a small but ravenous black hole, losing the equivalent mass of three Earths every time it passes close.

Glaciers are full of billions of loud bubbles—here’s what they tell us about our planet.

No, the asteroid didn't kill them all on impact.

The rover is currently driving across bumpy terrain consisting of rounded bedrock sticking up between dark sand and drift as she drives south, and slightly uphill, along the Mt. Sharp Ascent Route.

Patescibacteria are a group of puzzling, tiny microbes whose manner of staying alive has been difficult to fathom. Scientists can cultivate only a few types, yet these bacteria are a diverse group found in many environments.
