Each fall, the Taurid meteor shower brightens the night sky from late October through early November. Known as the “Halloween fireballs,” the meteors are named for the constellation Taurus (the bull), where they appear to originate. The best…

Quantum oscillations found coming from within
Quantum oscillations are like the rhythmic dance of electrons in a metal when exposed to a magnetic field. By applying a magnetic field, researchers can change the speed with which those electron springs wiggle.
But here’s the twist: these…

Are room-temperature superconductors finally within reach?
When electricity moves through wires, some of its energy is lost along the way. That loss, however, might not be inevitable. Researchers at Penn State have developed a new way to identify materials known as superconductors — substances that can…

3I/ATLAS may be the oldest comet ever seen in 7 billion years, carrying secrets from before the solar system began |
Astronomers have discovered an ancient, ice-rich interstellar object called 3I/ATLAS, which could transform our understanding of how comets form and evolve. Detected by the University of Oxford’s research team, this mysterious object is…

Scientists shocked by reversed electric field around Earth
The area of space controlled by Earth’s magnetic field is called the magnetosphere. Within this vast magnetic bubble, scientists have observed an electric field that stretches from the morning side of Earth to the evening side. This large-scale…
