As human space exploration pushes farther from Earth, the need for sustainable ways to obtain local resources is becoming increasingly urgent, as routine resupply missions grow impractical. Asteroids — some of them rich in valuable metals…

Although most of us think of gravity as a stable and constant value, in reality, its strength varies across our planet. The variations are influenced by Earth’s shape, rotation, and mass distribution, including geological structures.

A new analysis finds that a planned green hydrogen and ammonia complex in northern Chile would have added light, vibration, and dust to one of the darkest telescope sites on Earth.

Those changes would have made it harder for powerful observatories…

When fungi spread through a fallen log, they leave behind a web of tiny threads that quietly break down wood and recycle nutrients. For a long time, scientists assumed most of that network simply stayed behind as the fungus moved on.

But new…

A team of 48 astronomers from 14 countries, led by the University of Massachusetts Amherst, has discovered a population of dusty, star-forming galaxies at the far edges of the universe that formed only a billion years after the Big Bang,…

Heavy collisions at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have revealed the faintest trace of a wake left by a quark slicing through trillion-degree nuclear matter — hinting that the primordial soup of the universe may have literally been more…
