From the present day all the way to less than 400 million years after the Big Bang, we're seeing how the Universe grew up like never before.
Almost everything we can observe and measure follows what's known as a normal distribution, or a Bell curve. There's a profound reason why.
More than 90 percent of people make a mistake on this test.
∆G = ∆H - T∆S is one of the most abstract formulas in science, but it is also one of the most important. Without it, life cannot exist.
Inside the “out there” quest for a drug that would help doctors save lives before it’s too late.
If argumentation led to nothing, it would soon be thrown into the evolutionary dustbin.
Scientists have been chasing the dream of harnessing the reactions that power the Sun since the dawn of the atomic era. Interest, and investment, in the carbon-free energy source is heating up.
When we look out at the Universe, even with Hubble, we're only seeing the closest, biggest, brightest galaxies. Here's where the rest are.
Are quantum fields real, or are they simply calculational tools? These 3 experiments show that if energy is real, so are quantum fields.
All matter particles can act as waves, and massless light waves show particle-like behavior. Can gravitational waves also be particle-like?
New blood types are regularly discovered by an unusual absence or an unusual presence — both of which can result in tragedy.
When we view hard work as a sign of low aptitude, it harms our ability to learn and grow.
Why does the DMT experience feel so familiar to some people — even those who are trying the psychedelic for the first time?
To thrive in a rapidly changing future, we will need adaptable and diverse skill sets. Here’s where to look.
A recently identified stage of sleep common to narcoleptics is a fertile source of creativity.
According to Harvard career advisor Gorick Ng, this time-saving system can help us reclaim our work-life sanity.
If you think of the Big Bang as an explosion, we can trace it back to a single point-of-origin. But what if it happened everywhere at once?
For 550 million years, neutral atoms blocked the light made in stars from traveling freely through the Universe. Here's how it then changed.
Successful forgers are remembered as great conmen, not artists. This is strange, considering their forgeries fooled even the most seasoned critics.
Both views are equally spectacular, but unequally informative. Every so often, a creative amateur project highlights our professional achievements. This mosaic shows the region between the constellations of Cygnus and […]
Engineers borrowed the maple tree's "helicopter" to design tiny, flying microchips, which perform various tasks while in whirling free fall.
The Source Family, a radical 1970s utopian commune, still impacts what we eat today.
Finding out how the Universe grew up was the biggest science goal of JWST. This ultra-early proto-galaxy cluster is one amazing discovery.
From up close, the cracking sound of a thunderclap dominates. From far away, it's more like a drawn-out rumble. Can science explain why?
Previously, only the brightest and most active galaxies could pierce the obscuring wall of cosmic dust. At last, normal galaxies break through.
The artifacts were often made from found objects – an Ivory dish-soap bottle transformed into an earthenware figure.
This is a perversion of justice.
The East India Company issued stocks to minimize the risk on their unpredictable but highly lucrative voyages. The rest is history.
Venus Life Finder could launch as early as 2023.
