US researchers found that those who get their thymus removed face an increased risk of death from any cause in the five years following the surgery.
The brain is a marvel of efficiency, honed by thousands of years of evolution so it can adapt and thrive in a rapidly changing world.
The experiment successfully transported a box filled with unbonded protons across CERN’s main site, thus demonstrating that the same feat could later be possible for antiprotons.
Proof clones can reproduce safely is key to restoration of severely endangered ferrets and other species, experts say.
It appears that sometimes stars fail to explode as supernovae and instead turn directly into black holes.
Our star resides in the Local Hot Bubble (LHB). Now a team of astronomers has mapped the bubble, revealing the presence of a mysterious tunnel pointing towards the constellation Centaurus.
The carbon footprint from private jet travel grew 46 % between 2019 and 2023 and will keep rising unless the ultra-luxury industry is regulated, according to a new research.
A Chinese rover has brought forth evidence that hints at the likelihood of a massive ocean, covering almost a third of the Red Planet, that existed billions of years ago.
In August 2017, humanity observed a wonder. For the first time, we got to see two neutron stars colliding.
Comb jellies seem to use the strategy of aging in reverse as a survival strategy when they are under pressure.

In the binary system 4U 1820-30, a neutron star is spinning so fast around its center axis that it completes a breathtaking 716 rotations per second.
A low-sugar diet in the first years of life can significantly reduce the risk of chronic diseases in adulthood, a study based on historical data has found.
For the first time, we've got a three-dimensional picture of a magnetic skyrmion. This tiny, spiraling flaw in the magnetic properties of some materials could find uses in next-gen electronics storage devices and quantum computers.
If the hypothesis that black holes are related to dark energy is proven correct, it would revolutionize conventional knowledge about black holes and dark energy.
