Scientists from University of Sydney and start-up Dewpoint Innovations have created a porous polymer coating that reflects up to 97% of sunlight and radiates...
The new map of WASP-18b, a hot-Jupiter exoplanet located approximately 325 light-years from Earth, reveals an atmosphere with distinct temperature zones...
Titan offers great motivation for the detailed study of organic chemistry in unconventional conditions. Nonpolar hydrocarbons such as ethane and methane...
Scientists have demonstrated that supercompressed water transforms into ice VI at room temperature through multiple freezing-melting pathways, which occur...
Exploring the possibility of the survival of life under extraterrestrial conditions is an important goal of astrobiology. In a new study, scientists used...
The stark contrast between the Moon’s near side and far side in topography, volcanic activity and crustal structure provides critical insights into lunar...
Ice at minus 10 degrees Celsius releases more iron from common minerals than liquid water at 4 degrees Celsius, according to a team of researchers from...
Super-cooling radioactive atoms could produce a laser-like neutrino beam, according to a duo of physicists from MIT and the University of Texas at Arlington....
Cocoa (Theobroma cacao) bean fermentation is a spontaneous process involving interactions between various factors that contribute to the final flavors...
White dwarfs are the dense cores left behind when stars exhaust their fuel and collapse. They are Earth-sized stellar embers weighing typically half as...
New research led by University of California, Riverside’s Professor Meng Chen shows that plants rely on multiple heat-sensing systems and that sugar...
During periods known as Snowball Earth, between 720 and 635 million years ago, early eukaryotes — complex cellular lifeforms that eventually evolved...
In their new paper, Los Alamos National Laboratory planetary scientist Nina Lanza and colleagues looked at what would be needed to make the surface environment...
Using a novel method of geographical analysis, paleontologists inferred how archosauromorphs dispersed following one of the most impactful climate events...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have detected water, carbon monoxide, and silicon monoxide in the dayside atmosphere of WASP-121b...
Recognizable from the starring role in the film ‘Finding Nemo,’ the clown anemonefish (Amphiprion percula) also shrink in order to avoid social conflict,...
Observations of large valley networks on today’s Mars suggest formation by flowing water. However, most climate models cannot sustain temperatures above...
The quantum superposition principle allows us to prepare a system in a superposition of two arbitrary states. The paradigmatic example is the superposition...
Heat from our Sun drives atmospheric temperature changes on Earth, which in turn can affect things like rock properties and underground water movement,...
