'We've never had this kind of look at an exploded star before.'

In fields such as physics and engineering, partial differential equations (PDEs) are used to model complex physical processes to generate insight into how some of the most complicated physical and natural systems in the world function.

New research led by Stanford University scientists predicts life can persist in extremely salty environments, beyond the limit previously thought possible.

The quantum Cheshire cat effect draws its name from the fictional Cheshire Cat in the Alice in Wonderland story. That cat was able to disappear, leaving only its grin behind.

The space agency, to prepare for budget cuts on its Mars Sample Return mission, has reportedly tossed 100 contractors from its Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

Fossils discovered on Barro Colorado Island suggest central Panama was once home to a vast mangrove forest that was preserved when a volcanic mudflow buried it 23 million years ago.

Neanderthal was a highly similar species to humans that lived in Africa about 2,50,000 years ago, even before the Homo Sapiens.

Eventually, the two galaxies are expected to coalesce into a single one.

Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig have unearthed fascinating evidence that the brain undergoes important changes in wiring when we embark on the journey of learning a new language in adulthood. They organ…

By bringing together data from two NASA telescopes, astronomers may have solved a mystery around a bizarre structure found in the debris field of an exploded star. Their work has uncovered new details about the star's remains, and about the explosion itself.

During the last ice age, the first people to reach the Americas may have traveled from Asia along a sea ice "highway."

Infrared emission from methane suggests atmospheric heating by auroral processes.

In 2024, a total solar eclipse, the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris, the Gion Festival in Yamaguchi, Japan, and sustainable travel in New Zealand are among the global highlights.

In our own Solar System, Earth has far lower CO2 concentrations than its neighbors.

These test images are just a taste of what's to come when XRISM starts science operations later this year.
