The new theory, developed by physicists at Aalto University, describes gravity in a way that’s compatible with the Standard Model of particle physics, opening the door to an improved understanding of ...

A team of researchers from the United Kingdom and Ukraine has developed a new method for the safe reassessment of farmland abandoned after the Chornobyl nuclear accident in 1986. Since the Chornobyl ...

University of Portsmouth physicist Melvin Vopson proposes a new way to think about gravity — not just as a pull, but as something that happens when the Universe is trying to stay organized. The ...

Neotropical crocodiles inhabit a broad geographic range with populations spanning from coastal, inland, and insular locations. In new research, scientists discovered a remarkable genetic diversity for ...

Recent measurements from NASA’s InSight mission show that Mars’ core is less dense than planetary scientists previously believed. This indicates that Mars probably never developed a solid inner core ...

NASA’s Curiosity rover has found evidence of a carbon cycle on ancient Mars, bringing scientists closer to an answer on whether the planet was ever capable of supporting life. Planetary researchers ...

Duonychus tsogtbaatari lived in what is now Mongolia during the Late Cretaceous epoch, between 95 and 90 million years ago. The new species belongs to Therizinosauria, a group of herbivorous or ...

NASA has released an incredibly beautiful image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope of the barred spiral galaxy Messier 77. Messier 77 is located 62 million light-years away from Earth in the ...

Paleontologists have described the oldest known member of Haidomyrmecinae — an extinct subfamily of ants that only lived during the Cretaceous period — preserved as a rock impression in the limestone ...

“To paraphrase the Greek philosopher Heraclitus of Ephesus, who famously said Panta Rhei — everything moves, we thought that perhaps Panta Kykloutai — everything turns,” said Dr. István Szapudi, an ...

NGC 1514’s two central stars, which appear as one in the image from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, formed this scene over thousands of years — and will keep at it for thousands more. NGC ...

The Hubble team has released a stunning new image snapped by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope of the massive spiral galaxy NGC 1961. NGC 1961 is located approximately 190 million light-years away ...
