Opera One isn't the first browser with an AI chatbot, but its innovative design makes AI an actually-useful part of your daily internet experience.

Astronomers have known something strange is happening at the star FU Ori for decades. The star brightened dramatically about 85 years ago, releasing a flare that's a trillion times brighter than anything the Sun can generate, and it hasn't dimmed back down th…

Curls may be why humans have such big brains. A new study—involving a mannequin wearing wigs in a wind tunnel—reveals how.

The NROL-68 mission is scheduled to launch at 3:29 a.m. ET on Wednesday (June 21).

The consequences are enormous, as climate scientists’ risk assessments are incorporated into planning efforts.

Many researchers dream of deciphering the amazing ability of spiders to create super strong, super light, and super flexible silk threads—but so far, no one has been able to replicate the spiders' work.

Juno may chase more Jovian lightning storms as it passes over the gas giant's night side in the coming months.

Parker Solar Probe, the NASA spacecraft studying the Sun from as close as it can get without getting scorched, has snapped new details about the Solar Wind and how it will impact Earth

Anything with three hearts, blue blood and skin that can change colors like a display in Times Square is likely to turn heads. Meet Sepia bandensis, known more descriptively as the camouflaging dwarf cuttlefish.

Between now and 2050 the use of air conditioners to cope with rising temperatures risks generating an increase in emissions in the order of 10 million metric tons of carbon dioxide in Europe and as much as 120 million metric tons in India.

The ESA/JAXA BepiColombo mission has made its third of six gravity assist flybys at Mercury, snapping images of a newly named impact crater as well as tectonic and volcanic curiosities as it adjusts its trajectory for entering Mercury orbit in 2025.

Pangolins are fascinating creatures. This animal looks like a walking pine cone, as it is the only mammal completely covered with hard scales. The scales are made of keratin, just like our hair and nails. The scales overlap and are directly connected to the u…

The far side of the Moon offers unique advantages for science. A meeting at the Royal Society in London brought together planetary scientists, astronomers, astrophysicists and other stakeholders to discuss the future of astronomy from the Moon.

The team hypothesizes that spiral brain waves organize cognitive processes by functioning as a link connecting different parts of the brain.

The building blocks of proteins might be the building blocks of star systems as well.

Three new sonifications of data from Chandra and other NASA telescopes have been released.
