One of the most challenging aspects of modern chemistry is managing data. For example, when synthesizing a new compound, scientists will go through multiple attempts of trial-and-error to find the ri… [+4724 chars]
NASA’s Nancy Gracy Roman Space Telescope won’t launch until 2027, and it won’t start operating until some time after that. But that isn’t stopping excited scientists from dreaming about their new toy… [+11810 chars]
Something ancient and primordial lurks in Earth’s core. Helium 3 (3He) was created in the first minutes after the Big Bang, and some of it found its way through time and space to take up residence in… [+12917 chars]
In the past century, astronomers have learned a great deal about the cosmos and our place in it. From discovering that the Universe is in a constant state of expansion to the discovery of the Cosmic … [+4590 chars]
The European Space Agency's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) will study Jupiter and its icy moons. Spacecraft: ESA/ATG medialab; Jupiter: NASA/ESA/J. Nichols (University of Leicester); Ganymede: N… [+3328 chars]
A Monash University-led research team has discovered that a structure comprising an ultra-thin topological insulator sandwiched between two 2D ferromagnetic insulators becomes a large-bandgap quantum… [+7380 chars]
Newswise — BUFFALO, N.Y. — In the beginning, the world was empty and cold. Prior to the Big Bang — yes, before the Big Bang — the universe underwent a breathtaking cosmic expansion, doubling in size… [+11033 chars]
The teeny tiny arms of Tyrannosaurus rex have been the butt of jokes for many scientists and non-scientists alike. We have various hypotheses: perhaps its arms were vicious slashing machines or a way… [+3570 chars]
When the rock now known as the Chicxulub impactor plummeted from outer space and slammed into the Earth 66 million years ago, cockroaches were there. The impact caused a massive earthquake, and scien… [+3560 chars]
Can you imagine charging your mobile phone by simply using your body heat? It may still sound rather futuristic, but thermoelectrics can do it. Thermoelectrics is all about transforming heat into use… [+2861 chars]
