This observation suggests exciting avenues of investigation into both the production of cosmic dust and the earliest stellar populations in our Universe, and was made possible by Webb’s unprecedented sensitivity.
A strange radio signal pulsing from a spot 15,000 light-years away could point to an unconfirmed type of star.
US scientists have observed metal cracking and fusing back together, in a discovery that could pave the way for self-healing machines, vehicles and bridges.
Data collected by the BepiColombo spacecraft traces the causes of the strange aurora, which course through the planet's weak magnetosphere.
International research has found the first evidence of a massive galaxy with no dark matter. The result is a challenge to the current standard model of cosmology.
The world's first 16-megawatt monster offshore wind turbine is now connected to the power grid. This towering colossus will supply clean energy for about 36,000 Chinese homes.
Australian scientists have invented a next-generation solar panel capable of healing itself when damaged in space.
An international team of scientists was amazed to discover that Greenland was a green land only 416,000 years ago. Much of the Greenland ice sheet vanished when it got warm which caused a global sea level rise.
Exoplanet WASP-193b, is nearly 50 % bigger than Jupiter but it's so light and fluffy that its overall density is comparable to that of cotton candy. It's just a hair over 1% of the density of Earth.
NASA's Juno spacecraft orbiting Jupiter frequently encounters giant swirling waves at the boundary between the solar wind and Jupiter's magnetosphere.
Scientists described how pieces of pure platinum and copper spontaneously healed cracks caused by metal fatigue during nanoscale experiments that had been designed to study how such cracks form and spread in metal placed under stress.
An unidentified source has been beaming out a pulse of radio waves every 22 minutes since 1988, astronomers say.
The system in which the discovery was made is already famous: PDS-70. It was here that we saw, for the first time, direct images of not just one but two exoplanets in the process of forming, baby gas giants named PDS-70b and PDS-70c
Scientists are seeking to confirm that a black rock discovered in Morocco in 2018 departed Earth's pull for outer space, only to return to it like a prodigal child.
Space propulsion company Pulsar Fusion has started construction on what it claims is the largest practical nuclear fusion rocket engine ever built.
