NASA's Perseverance Mars rover is exploring a new region of interest the team is calling "Krokodillen" that may contain some of the oldest rocks on Mars. The area has been on the Perseverance science team's wish list because ...
What if ultrafast pulses of light could operate computers at speeds a million times faster than today's best processors? A team of scientists, including researchers from the University of Arizona, are working to make that ...
When the JWST came to life and began observations, one of its first jobs was to gaze back in time at the early universe. The Assembly of Galaxies is one of the space telescope's four main science themes, and when it observed ...
With new innovations and technology, scientists have learned from major tornado outbreaks over the years how to improve safety guidance. During tornado season, forecasters try to get the word out about staying safe during ...
A vanishing species of whale gave birth to few babies this birthing season, raising alarms among scientists and conservationists who fear the animal could go extinct.
Nanoplastics are everywhere. These fragments are so tiny they can accumulate on bacteria and be taken up by plant roots; they're in our food, our water, and our bodies. Scientists don't know the full extent of their impact ...
If you've ever watched a flock of birds move in perfect unison or seen ripples travel across a pond, you've witnessed nature's remarkable ability to coordinate motion. Recently, a team of scientists and engineers at Rice ...
Cornell researchers are demonstrating how artificial intelligence鈥攑articularly deep learning and generative modeling鈥攃an accelerate the design of new molecules and materials, and even function as an autonomous research ...
Quantum computers hold the potential to revolutionize the possibilities for solving difficult computational problems that would take classical computers many years to resolve. But for those computers to meet their potential, ...
The demand for the widely used cancer drug Taxol is increasing, but it's difficult and expensive to produce because it hasn't been possible to do it biosynthetically. Until now, that is. Researchers from the University of ...
