The number of planets that could support life may be far greater than previously thought, a recent discovery suggests.
For many years, cosmologists have claimed the Universe is 13.8 billion years old. A new paper says no, it’s 26.7 billion. How do we decide?
If you guessed “staying up all night to play video games,” you’d be right.
2023’s Nobel Prize was awarded for studying physics on tiny, attosecond-level timescales. Too bad that particle physics happens even faster.
Will you die when your body dies?
All matter particles can act as waves, and massless light waves show particle-like behavior. Can gravitational waves also be particle-like?
Most “irrecoverable carbon” is concentrated in these tiny bits of the Earth’s land mass. Can we keep it there?
Gods and angels have been replaced with hi-tech extraterrestrials.
Along with obsidian that dazzled scientists in Canada.
It’s a proclivity that sometimes leads to internal conflicts and high turnover.
“Less is better” is not a catchy marketing slogan, but one doctor who didn’t shower for five years thinks there’s a lot of truth to it.
If argumentation led to nothing, it would soon be thrown into the evolutionary dustbin.
In a major advance, scientists have found a new and groundbreaking way to force electrons to flow only in one direction in a superconductor.
As with any “big idea” progress means a lot of different things to different people and not everyone comes into the discussion with the same priors. Some experts are primarily focused on material progress while others emphasize the importance of moral progress. So to start the discussion, we asked each expert to define the term as they see it from their specific vantage point.
The majority of the matter in our Universe isn’t made of any of the particles in the Standard Model. Could the axion save the day?
Turning off a gene called “Myc” has a surprising effect in male fruit flies: They start courting other males.
A marine scientist explains the threat of the Loop Current, a 800-pound gorilla of Gulf hurricane risks.
Stories of child prodigies and the naturally gifted hide the fact that success is built on more than talent alone.
The Universe has asymmetries, but that’s a good thing. Imperfections are essential for the existence of stars and even life itself.
When high-anxiety situations arise in the workplace, we tend to react by fighting, fleeing, freezing, or fawning — but there’s a hidden fifth option.
Standard probiotics cannot compare to the diversity that your microbes have.
The material is both stronger and lighter than those used to make conventional power plant turbines.
With the invention of the leap year, the Julian calendar was used worldwide for over 1500 years. Over time, it led only to catastrophe.
From unexplained tracks in a balloon-borne experiment to cosmic rays on Earth, the unstable muon was particle physics’ biggest surprise.
Just as there are many types of believers, there’s not only one type of atheist.
From Amazon to the US Army, everybody wants one (or 150).
The laws of physics don’t prefer matter over antimatter. So how can we be certain that distant stars & galaxies aren’t made of antimatter?
Science fiction movies capture a classic human flaw: getting the future mostly wrong.
