On Saturday, October 14, a solar eclipse crosses North and South America. Here are 4 quick, easy, low-tech activities for everyone to enjoy!

From the Big Bang to black holes, singularities are hard to avoid. The math definitely predicts them, but are they truly, physically real?

CERN’s NA64 experiment used a high-energy muon beam technique to advance the elusive search for dark matter, offering new hope for solving one of astronomy’s greatest mysteries.

It’s common knowledge that syncing your circadian rhythm to a natural light-dark cycle could improve your health and well-being.

The world is aging, and with age comes vision decline. New research may have found how to improve eyesight in an accessible way.

To Fred Hoyle, the Big Bang was nothing more than a creationist myth. 75 years later, it’s cemented as the beginning of our Universe.

If you look into a mirror, you’ll notice that left-and-right are reversed, but up-and-down is preserved. The reason isn’t what you think.

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.

Humanity’s newest, most powerful space telescope is performing even better than predicted. The reason why is unprecedented.

JWST has already broken many of Hubble’s cosmic records. Perhaps additional record-breakers already exist within this data-rich image?

Deep learning AI has accurately created color images from night vision images.

Johns Hopkins professor Dr. Matthew Johnson answers 24 huge questions about psychedelics.

The nearby, bright star Fomalhaut had the first optically imaged planetary candidate. Using JWST’s eyes, astronomers found so much more.

Michael Faraday’s 1834 law of induction was the key experiment behind the eventual discovery of relativity. Einstein admitted it himself.

NASA’s space telescopes and observatories bring humanity unrivaled science images and scientific discoveries. Here’s what should be next.

Many mavericks look to Einstein as a unique figure, whose lone genius revolutionized the Universe. The big problem? It isn’t true.

Temperatures in the Sun’s core exceed 10 million degrees Celsius. But how on Earth did we actually come to know that?

“We are not our grandparents. It’s time to start thinking differently,” journalist Annie Jacobsen told Big Think.

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?

The last naked-eye Milky Way supernova happened way back in 1604. The next one could be the key to solving the dark matter mystery.

Our Universe requires dark matter in order to make sense of things, astrophysically. Could massive photons do the trick?

“What modern science has taught us is that life is not a property of matter.”

Lasers are all around you. This ubiquitous technology came from our understanding of quantum physics.

A recent experiment challenges the leading dark matter theory and hints at new directions for uncovering one of the Universe’s biggest mysteries.

According to the legendary investor, the best method is a blueprint for “extreme success.”

These theoretical megastructures represent one way an advanced civilization might harvest energy from stars.

In 2022, Hubble owned the record for most distant galaxy. Today, that galaxy is down to the 9th most distant object. Thanks, JWST.

The Universe isn’t just expanding, the expansion is also accelerating. If that’s true, how will the Milky Way and Andromeda eventually merge?

Legally smoking joints in city centers will require alertness and a keen sense of orientation — two things stoners are not known for.

It started with a bang, but won’t end with one. Instead, it will “rage against the dying of the light” like nothing you’ve ever imagined.
