Researchers say they've used cutting-edge gravitational wave research to shed new light on a nearly 2,000-year-old mystery.
From around 2,400 miles away, the probe’s Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) instrument “revealed that the whole surface of Io is covered by lava lakes contained in caldera-like features.
A comparison of post-mortem brain tissue and samples taken from living patients has revealed for the first time significant differences in the way strands of RNA are modified.
The device, which traps thousands of atoms to keep time, is "pushing the boundaries of what's possible with timekeeping."
The two new satellites, named Virgo III and Sextans II, were discovered in a region of space already crowded with more dwarf galaxies than models of dark matter predict.
NASA's Global-scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD) mission has revealed unexpected C- and X-shaped formations in an electrified layer of gas high above our heads called the ionosphere.
The hurricane has set a string of records that experts say are tied to climate change, as it developed faster and much earlier in the year.
Researchers say that time crystals could one day become a core component in the construction of quantum computers.
A black hole discovered lurking in the Cosmic Dawn is just way too big to easily explain.
The climate crisis is driving an exponential rise in the most extreme wildfires in key regions around the world, research has revealed.
The shape of the Solar System was once a little more on the doughy side. Before it arranged itself into a flattened disk, the distribution of dust and rocks had more in common with a donut than a pancake.
The glow above the Great Red Spot on Jupiter has recently been discovered and the researchers suspect that something else altogether is causing it - powerful gravitational interactions rarely seen on Earth.
Researchers found that time cells in the brain are crucial for learning complex tasks, acting like a personalized time code.
A major solution to the climate crisis may lie at the bottom of the ocean. Across the planet, basalt rock deposits on the sea floor have the potential to trap carbon dioxide, removing the heat-trapping gas from our atmosphere.
An international team of researchers combine orbital imagery with seismological data from NASA’s Mars InSight lander to derive a new impact rate for meteorite strikes on Mars.
