a new discovery in exotic materials known as strange metals has found electricity doesn't always move in step, and can in fact sometimes bleed in a way that has physicists questioning what we know about the nature of particles.
Nanoplastics that can leach into water and soil affect a specific protein found in the brain, causing changes linked to Parkinson’s disease and other types of dementia.
Researchers unveiled megabeds formed by supervolcano eruptions in the Mediterranean Sea, offering insights into volcanic history.
Scientists in Utah have detected the second-most energetic cosmic ray ever seen. The powerful particle rivals the highest-energy cosmic ray on record, called the Oh-My-God particle, which was spotted in 1991.
Finding methane in the atmosphere of WASP-80 b provides a good roadmap for how to do it for planets more conducive to life.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) recently looked at WASP-107b, a puffy, strange, hot planet about 200 light-years from Earth.
The Deep Space Optical Communications (DSOC) experiment transmitted a near-infrared laser encoded with test data from an astonishing distance of nearly 10 million miles.
Astrophysicists working with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have found a surprising amount of metal in a galaxy only 350 million years after the Big Bang.
A large hole in the Antarctic ozone layer once thought to be steadily closing could actually be widening, according to new research.
Last year, global astronomers picked up evidence of an explosion called a luminous fast blue optical transient, or LFBOT. But the bizarre thing about this explosion was that it kept exploding.
Water from Earth's surface can find its way deep into the planet, and new research explains how it changes the outermost region of the metallic liquid core.
Average global temperatures were more than 2 degrees Celsius above a pre-industrial benchmark on Friday, preliminary data show - an ominous milestone after months of record warmth.
Recent and long-term marijuana use is linked to changes in the human genome, a new study found. Although multiple states have legalized marijuana, the health consequences of marijuana use are not well understood.
Undeterred after three decades of looking, and with some assistance from a supercomputer, mathematicians have finally discovered a new example of a special integer called a Dedekind number.
Scientists in Hong Kong have demonstrated a new ultra-white ceramic material that can drastically cool buildings by reflecting sunlight and heat at record highs.
