Engineers could gain better control over the behavior of vortices in power generation and other applications with a mathematical model linking these vortices with more pedestrian types, like smoke rings. Gaining deeper insight into the formation of vortex rin…

Get ready to adjust your lunar knowledge as scientists reveal a novel discovery on the Moon, an ardent mass of granite buried beneath its surface, releasing heat for eons. Aptly characterized as ancient volcanism, this new discovery unveils the fascinating pa…

Astronomers previously believed that you needed a special environment for a rocky planet to have liquid oceans on its surface, with just the right temperature and surface pressure. But a new study suggests that the radioactivity from rocks could melt water. E…

That's an average, based on 25K avoidance maneuvers reported in 6 months

More than half of the planet's oceans have experienced color change over the last 20 years.

Recently released images from Nasa satellites show that more than half of the oceans on Earth have turned green as a result of climate change that is disrupting marine ecosystems.The images have...

There has recently been some confusion over which of the planets of the Solar System is closest to Earth.

A geologist's curiosity about balls of rock led her to explore what lay within them, giving important clues about an early period of life on Earth— and possibly Mars.

NASA is planning to head back to the moon by 2025 and Congress is ready to spend billions to help fund these missions.  A proposal earlier this year requested $27.2 billion for NASA’s endeavors, granting NASA enough room to continue growing funding for the Ar…

According to a new paper published in Genome Biology and Evolution by Oxford University Press, the annulated sea snake, a species of venomous snake found in ocean waters around Australia and Asia, appears to have evolved to see an extended palette of colours …

Artificial Intelligence: Uncovering the Hidden Worlds of Distant Stars - Clayton County Register

Scientists from the UOC and the University of Leicester have discovered a molecule with the potential to effectively eliminate senescent cells remaining in the body following cancer therapies. With the passage of time, the body's cells stop working properly a…

Scientists have finally figured out how immortal sea creatures known as hydractinia regrow their body parts.

Venus is one of the most brutally inhospitable places in our solar system, but many scientists think life may have thrived there at one point. Here's why.

The postdoctoral fellow at the University of California San Diego discussed using CRISPR-based gene editing to alter the amyloid precursor protein gene in mice models with symptoms of Alzheimer disease. [WATCH TIME: 5 minutes]

India’s space agency was the brainchild of Dr Vikram Sarabhai and has now come to represent a success story. Here’s a brief look at how it began.

SpaceX launched its latest round of Starlink communication satellites from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida just before midnight Saturday.

New research delves into the enigma of the mass production of resin during the Cretaceous period, which led to the formation of amber. It emphasizes amber's significance in understanding ancient ecosystems and their organisms, and suggests that widespread con…

Age reversal through chemicals: This is the first chemical approach to reprogramme cells to a younger state, something which was earlier possible only through powerful gene therapy.

Researchers studying the effects of oxygen supplementation on motor learning have discovered a potentially effective method for assisting people who have suffered neurological trauma to regain their former abilities.
