Despite the fact that both species shared a similarly large neocortex, scientists still have many questions about how closely the function of their brains resembled our own.
For every proton, there were over a billion others that annihilated away with an antimatter counterpart. So where did all that energy go?
2022 was another busy year in the realm of science, with groundbreaking stories spanning space, materials, medicine, and technology.
An in-depth interview with astronomer Kelsey Johnson, whose new book, Into the Unknown, explores what remains unknown about the Universe.
Why would the Earth suddenly start vomiting forth huge quantities of mud?
For decades, cinemas have earned more from concessions than ticket sales. But can their current business model survive in the streaming age?
A new “common-sense” approach to computer vision enables artificial intelligence that interprets scenes more accurately than other systems do.
Astronomers claim to have found structures so large, they shouldn’t exist. With such biased, incomplete observations, perhaps they don’t.
A team of scientists hopes deep-earth lithium could sustain America’s vast demand for batteries. But extracting it won’t be easy.
Unless you confront your theory with what’s actually out there in the Universe, you’re playing in the sandbox, not engaging in science.
In general relativity, matter and energy curve spacetime, which we experience as gravity. Why can’t there be an “antigravity” force?
The time to begin exploring VR training is now. Here are the pros, cons, and different ways this technology can be utilized.
The “first-of-its-kind” archeological find is being reburied despite the fact that researchers haven’t finished studying it.
Our own galaxy, the Milky Way, is both completely normal and absolutely remarkable in a number of ways. Here’s the story of our cosmic home.
A new method could make holograms for virtual reality, 3D printing, and more. You can even run it can run on a smartphone.
From King Midas to Gordon Gekko, humanity has struggled to grasp greed’s true nature.
The holograms use ‘aerohaptics’, which creates feelings of touch with simple jets of air.
Was our distant ancestor a biped or not – i.e., human or not human?
What are they and, more importantly, how do you get rid of them?
While one may be helpful, the other may be harmful.
Using cellulose from trees and a synthetic polymer, MIT researchers have created a material that “is stronger and tougher than some types of bone, and harder than typical aluminum alloys.”
New research suggests they may be in the connections between your brain cells.
Yorkicystis lived during the “Cambrian explosion,” 539 million to 485 million years ago – hundreds of million years before the dinosaurs.
The best evidence for dark matter is astrophysical and indirect. Do new lensing observations point to ultra-light, wave-like dark matter?
Historically, periods of mass flourishing are underpinned by technological revolutions. Currently, we are undergoing a technological revolution unlike anything the world has ever seen.
