When we gaze up at the night sky, we often marvel at the twinkling stars, distant planets, and expansive galaxies. Yet, beyond the visible spectrum lies a more mysterious aspect of the cosmos—cosmic ...
A black hole analog could tell us a thing or two about an elusive radiation theoretically emitted by the real thing.
Thanks for a powerful antioxidant, Deinococcus radiodurans can withstand radiation doses 28,000 times greater than what would kill a human. In a new study, scientists discovered how the antioxidant ...
A new study is hoping one of the tiniest organisms on our planet can soon have a huge impact on cancer treatment and radiation. It all has to do with tardigrades. A team of researchers from University ...
"Both hemispheres are darkening," the team explained. "The Northern Hemisphere is darkening at a faster rate." ...
A thermal metasurface is made of a single layer of nanostructured silicon (gray) on top of glass (blue) and a metal mirror (gold). The nanostructured surface is specifically tailored so that it ...
Giant main arm of robotic system shown to handle payload of 60 tonnes with exceptional precision, bringing goal of ...
Researchers have succeeded in something that has been pursued since the 1970s: explaining the X-ray radiation from the black hole surroundings. The radiation originates from the combined effect of the ...
"We think the ways tardigrades have evolved to withstand extreme environments on this planet may also be what protects them against the stresses of spaceflight." When you purchase through links on our ...
G eorge Smoot, who won a Nobel Prize in Physics for his role in the "discovery of the blackbody form and anisotropy of the cosmic microwave background radiation” in 2006, has died at home at the age ...
Three scientists, including one from the U.S., share the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for developing “metal-organic ...
