This plume is larger than any previously observed on the moon and may contain the necessary chemicals for life coming from below its icy surface.
Ions inside a compact fusion reactor barely a meter across have been heated to the magic figure of 100 million degrees Celsius for the first time in a monumental step towards making nuclear fusion energy a practical reality.
Now we have the first X-ray taken of a single atom, courtesy of scientists from the US, according to a new paper published in the journal Nature.
Neuralink said on Thursday that it received clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the first human clinical study of implants which are intended to let the brain interface directly with computers.
Astronomers studying black holes have serendipitously found another rarity: a dead star rocketing away from its birth supernova, leaving a comet-like trail of radio emission in its wake.
Recent research shows that the changes in Jupiter's magnetic field are causing these mysterious colour shifts.
Scientists in the US have developed a device that can harvest humidity in the air to create a clean electricity supply. According to the researchers “nearly any material can be turned into a device that harvests electricity from air”.
The cyclone on Uranus, compactly shaped with warm and dry air at its core, is much like those spotted at Saturn. Now,cyclones have been identified at the poles on every planet in our solar system except for Mercury.
The belt was discovered around a brown dwarf known as LSR J1835+3259 and is 10 million times more intense than Jupiter's.
Mounting evidence suggests humans are now a major driving force of evolution on Earth. We're altering so much of our world that we're not only now driving the climate, but the direction of life itself.
One year in the next five will almost certainly be the hottest on record and there's a two-in-three chance a single year will cross the crucial 1.5 °C global warming threshold.
While our census of hazardous NEOs is not nearly complete, we do have reliable maps of nearly all of the potentially hazardous asteroids larger than a kilometer (0.6 mile) across.
New discoveries by a team of astronomers added 62 new moons to Saturn’s existing 83, bringing its total to 145. Therefore, Saturn is the first planet known to have more than 100 moons.
The model uses AI to analyze spacecraft measurements of the solar wind and predict where an impending solar storm will strike, anywhere on Earth, with 30 minutes of warning. This could provide just enough time to prepare for these storms.
The explosive event labeled AT2021lwx was observed to be ten times brighter than any known supernova. This thing we have never, ever seen before – it just came out of nowhere.
