A Harvard astrophysicist has called for a worldwide early-warning system to spot high-speed visitors from beyond our solar system, spurred by unusual traits in the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS. Discovered in July 2025 as it streaked through our cosmic neighborhood, the comet's peculiarities have prompted......
Two days after families gathered at Kennedy Space Center to mark the 40th anniversary of the Challenger disaster, NASA presses forward with final preparations for Artemis II, the first crewed lunar flyby since 1972. The space agency launched wet dress rehearsal operations Thursday evening at Launch Pad......
Physicists from CERN's Large Hadron Collider have captured the first unambiguous signs that the ultra-hot "primordial soup" filling the early universe flowed like a liquid, rippling and swirling in response to fast-moving particles much like water trailing behind a duck. A team led by MIT......
Researchers at the University of Oxford have achieved a groundbreaking feat by engineering quantum mechanical behavior directly into proteins, ushering in a new era of biomolecules responsive to magnetic fields and radio waves. Published in Nature, this innovation shifts quantum effects from mere......
Physicists have identified a hidden magnetic order within the enigmatic pseudogap phase a peculiar state emerging in quantum materials just above superconducting temperatures unveiling insights that could advance the pursuit of room-temperature superconductivity. An international collaboration between......
NASA marked a historic moment early Thursday by conducting the first medical evacuation from the International Space Station in its 25 years of continuous human presence. The SpaceX Dragon capsule carrying four astronauts from the Crew-11 mission splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off San Diego, California,......
Astronomers have uncovered one of the universe's earliest "dead" galaxies, where a supermassive black hole at its core halted star formation not through a dramatic outburst but via repeated cycles of gas heating and ejection a process likened to death by a thousand cuts. The study, published......
The James Webb Space Telescope has unveiled groundbreaking observations of the early universe, spotlighting a massive galaxy starved by its own supermassive black hole, unusual cosmic dust in a primitive dwarf galaxy, and a puzzling new class of galaxies that defy standard classifications. Researchers......
Astronomers unveiled two groundbreaking discoveries this week at the American Astronomical Society meeting in Phoenix, challenging core theories on galaxy formation and dark matter. They identified the oldest and hottest galaxy cluster ever observed, along with the first confirmed detection of a starless......
NASA is assessing a rare early end to the Crew-11 mission on the International Space Station following an unspecified medical emergency involving a crew member on January 7, prompting the agency to scrub a spacewalk hours before launch. The affected astronaut remains in stable condition, NASA stated......
Researchers at the New Jersey Institute of Technology have uncovered a previously unknown source of intense gamma radiation generated during the sun's most powerful flares, solving a decades-old puzzle. Published January 7 in Nature Astronomy, these findings could enhance space weather forecasting......
NASA announced Friday that its Artemis II mission will roll out to the launch pad in under two weeks, kicking off the first crewed trip to lunar orbit in more than five decades. Industry watchers call this the start of an unprecedented year for lunar missions, with at least five commercial landers also......
The NASA announced on Thursday that its fully assembled Artemis 2 moon rocket will move from the Vehicle Assembly Building to Launch Complex 39B at Kennedy Space Center within two weeks, a pivotal step as the space agency gears up for its first crewed lunar mission in over 50 years. NASA spokesperson......
