Our species is especially vulnerable.

The powerful LARID radar in Hainan, China, can detect plasma bubbles in Earth’s upper atmosphere up to 9,600km away.

Here's what we know.

The secrets of black holes and dark matter could lie before the Big Bang, a new study of "bouncing" cosmology hints.

About 66 million years ago, a cataclysmic event marked the end of the dinosaur era. This episode is linked to the...

A team from UNIGE analyzed 56 million-year-old sediments to determine the rise in soil erosion due to global warming, which is associated with significant flooding. Around 56 million years ago, Earth underwent significant and swift climate warming, likely triggered by greenhouse gases emitted from

It feels like there have been staggering science stories emerging every other day recently, all of which have blown our tiny little minds.First, there was the discovery of a terrifying black hole pointing right at us, then there was a huge hole found in the sun and a missing continent found after go...

Mars will get the newly dubbed "Dimorphid" meteors first but Earth is not too far behind.

To determine an object’s quantum properties, you may only need to measure how it exchanges heat with its environment, without touching the object itself

The Moon is a key piece of the space exploration puzzle. One of our next objectives is to visit Earth’s satellite and establish a permanent … The post China produced large quantities of water using the Moon’s soil appeared first on BGR.

Some of the Earth’s most “extreme features” have been discovered deep, deep underground, and scientists can’t work out what they are. The mysterious zones have the power to slow down seismic waves by up to 50 per cent, yet experts don’t know what they’re made of or what role they play. These strange black holes (figuratively speaking) are located w...

Scientists have traced six meteorites to their original craters on Mars, providing unprecedented new insights into their origins.

Researchers finally have an interesting explanation for why the continents have been rising vertically along with moving horizontally.

The original principle of relativity, proposed by Galileo way back in the early 1600s, remains true in its unchanged form even today.

Einstein's theoretical warp drive concept brings faster-than-light travel closer, defying known physics limits.

Scientists have pushed back LUCA’s origin by hundreds of millions of years.

The universe is expanding at a rapid rate and scientists don’t really know why – but one expert has a compelling theory, and it concerns a mysterious 'twin’. One possible explanation as to why the fabric of the universe is growing was posited by Naman Kumar, who is a PhD student at the Indian Instit...

Discover how LIGO machine's groundbreaking technology has confirmed Einstein's theories and revolutionized astronomy.

The Perseverance rover was built for this moment—and it didn’t disappoint.

Pure Energy Turned Into Matter at Near Light Speed

"These exercises ultimately help the planetary-defense community communicate with each other and with our governments to ensure we are all coordinated should a potential impact threat be identified in the future," said NASA planetary defense officer Lindley Johnson in a press release.

A fringe theory called "panspermia" suggests that lifeforms can spread to new planets by hitching rides on meteors. New research lays out a roadmap for finding where these hypothetical, planet-hopping aliens may reside.
