When you say, “I’ll get it done this week,” you’re just lying to yourself.
Inspired by the group behaviors of simple animals, a team of roboticists has developed a new way for swarm robots to maneuver on land.
Whenever you’re surprised, there’s a good chance that your brain is busy tweaking your memories.
Fermilab’s TeVatron just released the best mass measurement of the W-boson, ever. Here’s what doesn’t add up.
Space planes could radically lower the cost of spaceflight.
Even if we traveled at the speed of light, we’d never catch up to these galaxies.
The Big Theoretical Physics Problem At The Center Of The ‘Muon g-2’ Puzzle In early April, 2021, the experimental physics community announced an enormous victory: they had measured the muon’s magnetic […]
The major transformation in the where of modern workplaces is about to collide with a transformation in who is doing that work.
Some think the reason fundamental scientific revolutions are so rare is because of groupthink. It’s not; it’s hard to mess with success.
If the electromagnetic and weak forces unify to make the electroweak force, maybe, at higher energies, something even grander happens?
For some reason, when we talk about the age of stars, galaxies, and the Universe, we use “years” to measure time. Can we do better?
The zero-point energy of empty space is not zero. Even with all the physics we know, we have no idea how to calculate what it ought to be.
Of the world’s 300 honey varieties, none is stranger and more dangerous than mad honey.
Every proton contains three quarks: two up and one down. But charm quarks, heavier than the proton itself, have been found inside. How?
Here are five things to know before conducting a training evaluation.
The future of healthcare may bring powerful collaborations between AI and medical professionals.
With advanced laser technology and an appropriate sail, we could accelerate objects to ~20% the speed of light. But would they survive?
Fossil Cycad National Monument held America’s richest deposit of petrified cycadeoid plants, until it didn’t.
Financial illiteracy can become a significant problem. But it’s a problem with a clear solution.
When you imitate the speech of others, there’s a thin line between whether it’s a social asset or faux pas.
When constructed well, post-training survey questions can provide a wealth of information that helps guide future design decisions.
After more than two decades of precision measurements, we’ve now reached the “gold standard” for how the pieces don’t fit.
In the quest to measure how antimatter falls, the possibility that it fell “up” provided hope for warp drive. Here’s how it all fell apart.
As particles travel through the Universe, there’s a speed limit to how fast they’re allowed to go. No, not the speed of light: below it.
Move over, IC 1101. You may be impressively large, but you never stood a chance against the largest known galaxy: Alcyoneus.
When cosmic inflation came to an end, the hot Big Bang ensued as a result. If our cosmic vacuum state decays, could it all happen again?
Here’s your gateway to enjoying the best of literature.
A single lifetime is more than enough to take you to the limits of the Universe. Right now, there are only three things limiting how far our spacecrafts can take […]
Standard probiotics cannot compare to the diversity that your microbes have.
