Researchers performed a genome-wide association study to explore whether biomarker levels are causally related to COVID-19 hospitalization.

As teachers, we have certain basic expectations of our students, and from our own perspectives, some of these expectations may be so basic that we may not think to tell the students about them. Adam Patterson, a PhD student in philosophy at Syracuse Universit…

Quantum field theory is a framework used by physicists to describe a wide range of phenomena in particle physics and is an effective tool to deal with complicated many-body problems or interacting systems.

The error occurred in July, preventing the probe launched in 1977 from receiving commands from earth.

If Chandrayaan-3 fails to be captured by the moon's gravity, the consequences could be significant. The spacecraft might either crash into the moon or be flung away from it due to the Earth's gravitational pull.

The Mars Sample Return (MSR) has been going through a rough patch lately. We recently reported on reports coming out about Congress restricting its budget and potential cost overruns. However, like any good government program, progress continues toward the go…

Translunar orbit injection is the process whereby the moon-bound spacecraft is put into a trajectory so that it can reach the moon

Fatalities are common in space during missions. But what happens to the dead bodies? NASA protocols have the answers.

Yes, save the corals. But warming seas also imperil innumerable plankton, which power the oceanic ecosystem.

Join physicist Dr Emma Chapman on a journey back to the beginning of the Universe.🌌 Find out why the oldest stars are totally different from younger ones, a...

Scientists simulated ancient viruses to see what impact they would have on the environment. While most had few consequences, 1% were capable of killing their hosts and disrupting ecosystems.

Superfast changes to the intensity of a jet blasting out from a small black hole have been detected for the first time.

A new algorithm capable of scanning space just spotted its first potentially hazardous asteroid. The algorithm will be implemented in the Vera C. Rubin Observatory's 10-year survey when it opens in the second half of 2024. NASAThe aster…

The asteroid discovery algorithm, HelioLinc3D, has revealed its ability to detect “potentially hazardous” near-Earth asteroids

There's no question that sending human beings to space is an extraordinarily difficult and perilous proposition.

The earliest impact scars from asteroids that bombarded Earth's surface may be lost forever to the ravages of time.

Microorganisms leverage the CRISPR-Cas system as a defense mechanism against viral intrusions. In the realm of genetic engineering, this microbial immune system is repurposed for the targeted modification of the genetic makeup. Under the leadership of Profess…

Euclid launched on July 1 from Cape Canaveral, Florida. It has arrived at its destination the Second Lagrange Point (L2), located approximately 1 million miles (1.5 million km) away from Earth.

Each year in mid-August, Earth plows through the debris stream of an enormous comet, creating the Perseids. 2023's show will be magnificent!

August is a great month for skywatching, with a meteor shower and a blue moon among some of the treats in store for those who look up.

A new technique incorporates many different building blocks of cellular metamaterials into one unified graph-based representation. This can be used to make a user-friendly interface that can quickly and easily model metamaterials, edit the structures, and sim…

The NG-19 Cygnus spacecraft successfully launched aboard Northrop Grumman's Antares rocket just after 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, then made its way to the ISS, with a...

An international team uncovered these organic molecules in a galaxy over 12 billion light-years away using the powerful new telescope.
