A newly-detected spinning galaxy filament is reshaping our understanding of cosmic structure, gas flows, and the origins of ...
Two clashing ideas about disorder inside black holes now point to the same strange conclusions, and it could reshape the ...
Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Stirling engines, which have been around for centuries, leverage temperature differentials in a gas to do light mechanical work. A new study ...
A baby galaxy is throwing one heck of a tantrum, and it's shaking up our understanding of the earliest galaxies. Recently, an international team of astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope ...
What if Earth teleported to the edge of the universe? Consider the cosmic consequences of our planet being flung into deep space. “I will not allow Donald Trump to silence me”: Army combat veteran ...
DUBAI—Powertech recently completed the preliminary design of a 1,200 lb.-thrust (550 kg-thrust) turbofan engine less than a year after parent company Edge Group launched the in-house aviation ...
"We really needed the sensitivity of JWST. We also needed the 100 times magnification from gravitational lensing from a galaxy cluster between us and LAP1-B." Astronomers have discovered that the ...
Researchers used type Ia supernovae, similar to SN1994d pictured in its host galaxy NGC4526, to help establish that the universe’s expansion may actually have started to slow. Credit: NASA/ESA But now ...
Researchers have demonstrated a way to generate nighttime power by exploiting an often-overlooked temperature difference between Earth and the sky. Their approach uses a specialized engine to tap into ...
Look into the night sky, and it might seem like space is a vast expanse of darkness. But are any regions darker than others? What's the darkest place in the solar system and, on a grander scale, the ...
This engine won't be fueling interstellar missions, but still finds an unexpected way to use deep space energy to generate power. Reading time 3 minutes Deep space may provide hidden sources of energy ...
Beyond the solar system lies a vast expanse where light from distant stars takes millennia to reach us. This episode explores the Oort Cloud, the nearest stars, the Milky Way’s unimaginable span, and ...
