An object up to dozens of times the mass of Jupiter flying through our solar system may have disrupted planetary orbits.
Scientists know the Universe is expanding because they can track other galaxies as they move away from ours. They define expansion using the rate that other galaxies move away from us.
Google’s latest quantum computer chip, which the team dubbed Willow, has ignited a heated debate in the scientific community over the existence of parallel universes.
Dark comets are objects that looks like asteroids but acts like comets. Now, new research has doubled the number of known dark comets and grouped them into two distinct populations.
Capable of handling extreme cold, acid, and dehydration, the microbe Deinococcus radiodurans handles doses of radiation that would kill a human tens of thousands of times over.
Americans, especially those born between 1966 and 1986 (largely so-called generation X), have probably suffered from an additional 151 million mental health disorders that would not have occurred without the use of leaded petrol.
A new vortex electric field with the potential to enhance future electronic, magnetic and optical devices has been observed by researchers from City University of Hong Kong and local partners.
International researchers have confirmed a theory that proposes a connection between the complementarity principle and entropic uncertainty.
Their orbit periodically takes them through a cloud of gas, triggering flares.
The researchers have now identified chloronitramide anion as an end product of inorganic chloramine decomposition in treated drinking water.
A team puts forward a possible explanation for the rise in global mean temperature: our planet has become less reflective because certain types of clouds have declined.
Astrophysicists find the birth sites of gigantic elliptical galaxies which they say gives new clues about how they were formed. The galaxies look like bulging footballs and how they were created remains a mystery to scientists -- until now.
Contradicting the results of several recent studies, the new findings reopen the case that Jupiter-family comets like 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko could have helped deliver water to Earth.
All the singularities of gravitational collapse are "clothed" by the event horizons of black holes – meaning we could never observe one. This is called cosmic censorship.
A new research suggests that the South Pole-Aitken basin may not have formed the way we thought, and may be much bigger than previous studies suggest – a discovery that has exciting implications for future lunar missions to the basin.
