By unlearning old leadership mindsets, cultures, and assumptions we can move from Industrial Age thinking to Intelligence Age thinking.
A rift in thinking about who should control powerful new technologies sent the brothers on diverging paths. For one, the story ended with a mission to bring science to the public.
When stars form, they emit energetic radiation that boils gas away. But it can’t stop gravitational collapse from making even newer stars.
Astronomers in 2017 caught an image of a supermassive black hole in a galaxy far, far away. Doing it in our own galaxy is a huge milestone.
Recent measurements of CERN data seem to disagree with standard-model predictions about how the Higgs boson decays, though further analysis is needed to confirm the observations.
The media sells bad news, but scientific evidence shows that we are making progress toward a greener planet.
The idea of awarding legal personhood to nature has received renewed attention in the contemporary environmental justice movement, but much contention remains.
The curiosity of children is a national resource. Adults destroy it.
Time isn’t the same for everyone, even on Earth. Flying around the world gave Einstein the ultimate test. No one is immune from relativity.
Google’s first Chief Innovation Evangelist — Frederik Pferdt — lays out a map for navigating unprecedented change and innovation.
“Should they strike, each of them has an energy at impact equal to all of the nuclear weapons on Earth combined.”
The answer is set to change in the year 2113, a recent estimate suggests.
Compared to people who took a placebo, the brains of those who took caffeine pills had a temporarily smaller gray matter volume.
Laser-guided lightning systems could someday offer much greater protection than lightning rods.
There has been a 600% increase in European gas prices so far in 2021.
Steam cars hit the U.S. market in the 1890s but were largely extinct by the 1930s. Will technology bring them back?
Physicists have yet to pinpoint the hypothetical matter that keeps galaxies from flying apart. Now they have a new focus.
With such a vast Universe and raw ingredients that seem to be everywhere, could it really be possible that humanity is truly alone?
Whole Foods Market founding CEO John Mackey synthesized the counterculture with capitalism and drove a food revolution.
Look out at a distant object, and you’re not seeing it as it is today. It’s size, brightness, and actual distance are all 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?
The number of planets that could support life may be far greater than previously thought, a recent discovery suggests.
Invisible cloaks. Ghost imaging. Scientists are manipulating light in ways that were once only science fiction.
We know it couldn’t have began from a singularity. So how small could it have been at the absolute minimum?
Scientists turn to nature to improve a ubiquitous building material.
Every opportunity seized is another lost — but not choosing is the worst choice of all.
The inside of every black hole leads to the birth of a new Universe. Could our Universe have arisen from one?
1.9 billion years ago, a star’s explosive death created a black hole. Its light just arrived at Earth. But did it set a cosmic record?
