Researchers at Purdue spent years working with NASA engineers to figure out how to grow crops on Mars and beyond. Now the data is yielding surprising results.

Sport-related experiments are often crowd-pleasing classics in physics labs. Baseball or softball calculations are often simplified to head-on, energy-conserved collisions between two balls instead of ...

The scientific Nobels announced this week — in Physiology or Medicine, Physics and Chemistry — honored achievements rooted in ...

The world's most sensitive table-top interferometric system—a miniature version of miles-long gravitational-wave detectors ...

This experiment shows how liquids naturally follow paths of least resistance, revealing the fascinating physics of flow, ...

In this video, I put gravity and friction to the test with a simple classroom experiment. When I tilt the table, you'll ...

It is now thought that the source of this anomaly was a phase transition in which one mineral’s structure was altered.

Quantum physics is often described as the most successful scientific framework in history. In its 100 years of existence, it has explained everything from the periodic table of the elements to how ...

KUTV — Clark Planetarium is wrapping up its Shark Summer and preparing for another busy school year. During the 2024–2025 school year, Clark Planetarium provided over 150,000 student experiences—both ...

A new physics paper takes a step toward creating a long-sought "theory of everything" by uniting gravity with the quantum world. However, the new theory remains far from being proven observationally.
