This week, researchers published LIGO findings that hint at the existence of second-generation black holes. Astronomers captured a spectacular new image of the Milky Way across a wide range of radio ...

After analysing the star’s light, the team decided that the culprit was not one object, but 24 comets with diameters from ...

We explore a material more precious than gold that didn’t originate on our planet. Kansas mayor hit with criminal charges for allegedly voting as noncitizen in several elections Kelly Clarkson Looks ...

The moon has captivated human imagination for millennia. As Earth's only natural satellite, it has inspired myths, guided calendars, and lit up countless night skies. But beyond its poetic allure lies ...

New strategies may soon allow scientists to test dark energy theories within our own solar system, linking cosmic-scale physics to local observation. Science advances through a cycle of proposing ...

About 50 light-years from Earth, a gas giant about half the mass of Jupiter orbits a sunlike star. The discovery of Pegasi 51 ...

Gaia’s full-sky survey generated a massive database tracking how asteroids reflect light as they rotate. These measurements, called light curves, reveal changes in brightness over time. When ...

My research focuses on the physics of matter cooled to just barely above absolute zero, and explores the phenomenon of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) terrestrially and in microgravity. I perform ...
