Scientists have redated an asteroid crater beneath Oklahoma, finding it occurred 100 million years later than previously thought, potentially linking it to a major mass extinction event.
A new study reveals that infections cause approximately 1 in 8 cancer cases worldwide, accounting for over 2 million new cases in 2024, with most being preventable.
Scientists have discovered concerning instability in Antarctica's Wilkes Subglacial Basin, an unmapped region beneath the continent's largest ice shelf that could pose significant climate risks.
Researchers have identified a second-generation planet candidate accreting onto a white dwarf, suggesting planets can form from the remnants of dead stars in an unexpected cosmic recycling process.
Ancient DNA evidence suggests Indigenous ancestors reached the Americas no earlier than 21,000 years ago during the last ice age's coldest period, narrowing scientific debate.
SpaceX scrubbed a launch attempt for 21 data transport satellites for the Space Development Agency and plans to reattempt the mission Thursday amid a busy launch schedule.
The moon will pass in front of Jupiter on October 6, 2026, an occultation event that won't occur again for 11 years, visible before dawn.
Three scientists won the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for developing techniques to visualize and study brain activity, advancing neuroscience research.
Em 1984, a NASA levou 3.400 abelhas ao espaço no ônibus Challenger para estudar se conseguiriam construir favos em microgravidade. O experimento surpreendeu: as abelhas produziram aproximadamente 200 cm² de favos com geometria reconhecível, embora com algumas diferenças em relação às estruturas terrestres.
Investigadores de Harvard detectaron por primera vez una emisión de radio procedente del exoplaneta Beta Pictoris b, a 63 años luz, originada por su potente campo magnético similar a las auroras boreales terrestres.
Científicos detectan por primera vez evidencia de un planeta que se formó a partir de los restos de una estrella muerta, un hito que sugiere que nuevos mundos pueden nacer después del colapso estelar.
Astrónomos reportan el descubrimiento de un posible planeta de segunda generación orbitando una enana blanca a 270 años luz, formado a partir de los restos de su estrella anfitriona ya fallecida.
Research reveals female-looking AI agents received 10% lower compensation than male counterparts in a virtual workplace experiment, raising questions about algorithmic bias.
Research shows that extended fasting triggers systemic changes in the body, with major metabolic shifts occurring after three days as the body transitions to fat burning and undergoes protein and organ changes.
SpaceX has demonstrated that rocket reuse is more effective than previously anticipated, validating the company's core strategy for reducing space launch costs.
Physicists propose that primordial black holes may be five-dimensional objects formed from collapsing cosmic strings, potentially explaining a mysterious high-energy particle detected in 2023.
A new study finds GLP-1 weight-loss drugs like Ozempic are associated with increased nail detachments in users, adding to known side effects including hair loss.
Scientists propose that a mysterious high-energy particle detected in 2023 may originate from primordial black holes existing in five-dimensional space, challenging conventional physics understanding.
Research shows measles can eliminate up to 73% of the immune system's memory, potentially compromising long-term protection against other diseases.
Scientists report discovering a potential second-generation planet orbiting a white dwarf 270 light-years away, possibly formed from the star's expelled material—a cosmic first if confirmed.
A 28-year-old Russian laboratory worker at a plague research institute in Siberia died after a reported accident, prompting quarantine measures across multiple hospitals and triggering US monitoring amid conflicting official statements.
The New York Times explores the philosophical and scientific question of whether babies possess consciousness, examining current research and theories about infant awareness.
Astronomers identified the first second-generation planet orbiting a white dwarf, formed from material the star expelled as it died. The discovery around HS 0209+0832 reveals unusual heavy elements suggesting planetary rebirth.
