Technology has advanced at a blinding pace in the past 150 years. That won’t always happen.
2023 will see the launch of new rockets, the return of OSIRIS-REx, and a mission to Jupiter that could help us find extraterrestrial life.
From the Palace of the Soviets to The Illinois, these unmade buildings would have taken the art of architecture to whole new heights.
Nothing can escape from a black hole. So where do Hawking radiation, relativistic jets, and X-ray emissions around black holes come from?
UAP are no laughing matter anymore.
Fire-retardant gels and slimes combine the best attributes of water and foam.
We know the Universe is expanding, but scientists don’t agree on the rate. This is a legitimate problem.
At a fundamental level, only a few particles and forces govern all of reality. How do their combinations create human consciousness?
Galactic archaeology has uncovered a spectacular find: the Milky Way already existed more than 13 billion years ago.
Mathematically, it is a monster, but we can understand it in plain English.
If something is “true,” it needs to be shown to work in the real world.
Scientists find two 30-second techniques that prevent dizziness upon standing.
Do the laws of physics place a hard limit on how far technology can advance, or can we re-write those laws?
A new model addresses a longstanding problem: where do quasars get the fuel they need to outshine entire galaxies?
Ever since the start of the hot Big Bang, time ticks forward as the Universe expands. But could time ever run backward, instead?
The search for worlds outside our solar system has just turned up a planet, TOI-2257 b, with a truly extreme orbit.
We’ve only seen Uranus up close once: from Voyager 2, back in 1986. The next time we do it, its features will look entirely different.
We take for granted that time is real. But what if it’s only an illusion, and a relative illusion at that? Does time even exist?
From consciousness to nothingness and beyond, these questions still baffle the brightest minds. Will they ever be solved?
For a substantial fraction of a second after the Big Bang, there was only a quark-gluon plasma. Here’s how protons and neutrons arose.
The Universe is 13.8 billion years old, going back to the hot Big Bang. But was that truly the beginning, and is that truly its age?
With sodium-sensitive eyes, we’d see it every new Moon. With no detectable gases, the Moon appears to be atmosphere-free. The Moon as seen from a view above the majority of Earth’s […]
If you bring too much mass or energy together in one location, you’ll inevitably create a black hole. So why didn’t the Big Bang become one?
The Universe is 13.8 billion years old, going back to the hot Big Bang. But was that truly the beginning, and is that truly its age?
Most of us will never run a 4 minute mile. But on a bicycle, almost anyone can do it. As human beings, we often take for granted how our bodies work. […]
