The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are working together to develop a science instrument that will survive the harsh and unforgiving ...

Water trapped inside tiny molecular cavities behaves in a surprisingly energetic way, pushing outward like people crammed in ...

In the leading model of cosmology, most of the universe is invisible: a combined 95% is made of dark matter and dark energy.

Today, the universe as we know it is governed by four fundamental forces: the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, electromagnetism, and gravity. However, these four forces aren’t exactly as ...

Through conversations at these global forums, one insight became clear to me: Technology alone will not define the future of ...

Physics is good at explaining many of our universe’s strange phenomena — from the way invisible beams of the light fan into rainbows to how rocket fuel can propel us into space. Even so, there are ...

Hungarian researchers have followed up a major 2016 observation with a second similar one, both suggesting a fifth force of nature and a new kind of subatomic particle. The scientists used a radiation ...

Gravity is the attraction between two objects that have mass or energy, whether this is seen in dropping a rock from a bridge, a planet orbiting a star or the moon causing ocean tides. Gravity is ...

Axions? Phantom energy? Astrophysicists scramble to patch a hole in the universe, rewriting cosmic history in the process. Credit...Brian Stauffer Supported by By Dennis Overbye There was, you might ...

Carsten Welsch receives funding from STFC and the European Union. He works for the University of Liverpool/Cockcroft Institute of Accelerator Science and Technology. Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker, ...

Scientists have figured out how to capture heat and turn it into electricity. The discovery could create more efficient energy generation from heat in things like car exhaust, interplanetary space ...
