If Earth is going to be blown to bits by an asteroid, it'd be nice to have some advance warning and a newly developed equation gives us a better chance of an early heads up.
Quantum teleportation over a busy internet cable opens the door for quantum applications without requiring specialized infrastructure.
Using the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers homed in on a quasar called 3C 273, some 2.5 billion light-years from Earth.
From exploring the Moon to revealing mysteries of the solar system, space agencies around the world are gearing up for an exciting year of launches and flybys.
In new research, physicists have theorized a bold way to change it up by entangling two particles of very different kinds – a unit of light, or a photon, with a phonon, the quantum equivalent of a wave of sound.
Microplastics are superpervasive - getting into human tissue, ancient rock, and bottled water - but it may come as a shock to discover just how many of these tiny fragments can lurk inside a single tea bag.

An unusual planetary system with three known ultra-low density "super-puff" planets has at least one more planet.
There's a supermassive black hole lying in the centre of galaxy NGC 5084, and astronomers have discovered that the black hole appears to be tipped over on its side.
The plot has just thickened in the mystery tale about the unseen mass skulking inside the largest cluster of stars in the Milky Way galaxy.
Scientists hope the data from Parker will help them better understand why the Sun's outer atmosphere is hundreds of times hotter than its surface.
