The average temperature at the Amundsen–Scott South Pole Station between April and September, a frigid minus - 61 Celsius and was the coldest on record, dating back to 1957.
Google advertisers and publishers, as well as YouTube creators, will be prohibited from making ad revenue off content that denies climate change. It's one of the most aggressive measures major tech platform has taken so far.
The world’s biggest historical carbon gas emitters from year 1850 to 2021 (in descending order) are: the USA, China, Russia, Brazil, Indonesia, Germany, India, UK, Japan, Canada.
Researchers are developing artificial intelligence that could assess climate change tipping points. The deep learning algorithm could act as an early warning system against runaway climate change.
New research has just answered one of the fundamental questions about our universe: Why did some of the oldest, most massive galaxies go quiescent early in their formation? The answer, we now know, is because they ran out of cold gas.
About a year ago, the XENON1T experiment reported an unexpected signal, or excess, over the expected background. This signal could be attributable to dark energy.
Other rovers have also experience dust devils, but Jezero crater, Perseverance’s landing site, seems to have a high occurrence of dust devils.
The impact on Jupiter was reported by both amateur and professional astronomers. The object’s diameter is estimated at 20 meters and it is believed to be the remnant of a larger comet or asteroid.
A research group have now developed a system of holograms of people using “aerohaptics”, creating feelings of touch with jets of air. In time you could meet a virtual avatar of a colleague and really feel their handshake.
Four people returned to Earth from a three-day extraterrestrial excursion aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule on Saturday evening. It was the first-ever flight to Earth's orbit flown entirely by tourists.
The researchers have identified a new class of habitable planets, dubbed 'Hycean' planets - hot, ocean-covered planets with hydrogen-rich atmospheres - which are more numerous and observable than Earth-like planets.
Ripples in Saturn’s innermost rings indicate the planet’s core is not a compact, solid structure as some have theorized but more like a thick “soup” of ice, rock and metallic fluids extending across 60 % of the planet’s diameter.
Some scientists think the best place to find evidence of life is one of Mars’ moons. They might serve as a depository for material that was blasted off of Mars’ surface in the past.
By connecting two of the biggest radio telescopes in the world, astronomers have discovered that a simple binary wind fast radio bursts after all. The bursts may come from a highly magnetized, isolated neutron star - magnetar.
Nuclear scientists using lasers the size of three football fields said they had generated a huge amount of energy from fusion, possibly offering hope for the development of a new clean energy source.
