We're comparing four of Celestron's 10x42 binoculars to see which ones you should buy, and which you shouldn't.

Towering ridges, ancient Martian winds, and a crust that refuses to move… what’s really going on out there on Mars?

A research team at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) is the first ever to observe a beta-delayed neutron emission from fluorine-25, a rare, unstable nuclide. Using the FRIB Decay Station Initiator (FDSi), the team found contradictions in prior experi…

A massive plume of molten rock, hidden deep beneath the Appalachian Mountains, is on the move—and its slow journey is aimed at New York City.

For millions of years, a colossal dinosaur fossil lay hidden beneath Antarctica’s unforgiving ice — untouched, unseen, and completely unexpected.

Dec. 20, 2025: Our weekly roundup of the latest science in the news, as well as a few fascinating articles to keep you entertained over the weekend.

Scientists watching the nearby Fomalhaut star system have directly seen two protoplanets smash together for the first time. Then, they saw it happen again.

Humans grow tall in spurts, but what's our fastest period of growth?

A 400-million-year-old fossil is shedding new light on the evolution of plants and their ability to grow large.

The Webb telescope confirmed one of the fastest moving celestial objects ever detected.

"The sheer amount of radiated energy from these bursts is so large that you can't power them with a core collapse stellar explosion — or any other type of normal stellar explosion."

The islands of Bermuda are a scientific mystery.

"We do not know with certainty that we found a superkilonova, but the event nevertheless is eye-opening."

A team at UNIGE has uncovered a geometric structure once thought to be purely theoretical at the core of quantum materials, opening the door to major advances in future electronics. How can information be processed almost instantly, or electrical current flow…

Let's all blame Keith for crappy NASA IT

As part of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 mission, four crew members from three space agencies will launch no earlier than Sunday, Feb. 15, 2026, to the International

According to scientists, these two giant underground structures could be the remains of an ancient planet.

Experts believe a giant mass of hot rock known as the Northern Appalachian Anomaly (NAA) is heading toward New York City.

The Big Bang Theory's "Sheldon and Leonard couldn't make it work," one of the scientists who solved the problem explained.

University of Leicester engineers have unveiled a concept for a device designed to magnetically "cloak" sensitive components, making them invisible to detection.

A new study from the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) in London, UK reveals how ancient viral DNA once written off as "junk" plays a crucial role in the earliest moments of life. The research, published in Science Advances, begins to untangle the role…

Scientists studied thousands of dinosaur footprints in Bolivia and uncovered how these animals moved, ran, and interacted on shoreline.

The human brain is constantly processing information that unfolds at different speeds—from split-second reactions to sudden environmental changes to slower, more reflective processes such as understanding context or meaning.

Several hundred volcanoes lie dormant beneath the Eifel in western Germany. They are typical examples of what is known as distributed volcanic fields. To better understand their formation and activity, researchers from the GFZ Helmholtz Center for Geosciences…

Not even the strongest microbes can survive volcanic eruptions, but they are capable of returning surprisingly quickly, according to a new study.
