Researchers have discovered 6-million-year-old-ice and air in shallow ice cores drilled in the Allan Hills region of East Antarctica. They speculate that...
The new map of WASP-18b, a hot-Jupiter exoplanet located approximately 325 light-years from Earth, reveals an atmosphere with distinct temperature zones...
In both NOvA (NuMI Off-axis νe Appearance experiment) and T2K experiments, neutrinos are fired from particle accelerators and detected after traveling...
Down here on Earth we don’t usually notice, but the Sun is frequently ejecting huge masses of plasma into space. These are called coronal mass ejections...
Paleontologists have found the 2.9-cm-long fossilized foot bone of a possible bowerbird species at the Miocene locality of St Bathans in Aotearoa New Zealand.
