For over 50 years, it’s been the scientifically accepted theory describing the origin of the Universe. It’s time we all learned its truths.
Evolution may have built our brains, but it didn't build them to find truth.
Most of us think we're good listeners, but we're wrong — and it's ruining our relationships.
For hundreds of millions of years, a cosmic fog blocked all signs of starlight. At last, JWST found the galaxies that cleared that fog away.
A meditation on quantum physics, creative endurance, and the unseen forces that shape what lasts.
In this excerpt from "Agents of Change," Christina Hillsberg tells the story of Martha “Marti” Peterson, the first female case officer stationed in Soviet Moscow.
To be culturally intelligent, you must be curious and open-minded — and the benefits can be transformative.
Here in 2025, many of us claim to come to our own conclusions by doing our own research. Here's why we're mostly deluding ourselves.
As the closest icy ocean world to
Earth, Ceres may be a promising candidate in the search for signs of ancient life.
Snorre Kjesbu — SVP & GM of Cisco’s Employee Experience group — has a bold vision for the future of human interaction.
Massive galaxy cluster Abell S1063, 4.5 billion light-years away, bends and distorts the space nearby. Here's what a JWST deep field shows.
Is the Universe's expansion rate 67 km/s/Mpc, 73 km/s/Mpc, or somewhere in between? The Hubble tension is real and not so easy to resolve.
In "The Gift of Not Belonging," Rami Kaminski explains why group consensus may hinder the original thinkers who help advance society.

The ANITA experiment found cosmic rays shooting out of Antarctica. One interpretation claims "parallel Universes," but is that right?
Different methods of measuring the Universe's expansion rate yield high-precision, incompatible answers. But is the problem robustly real?
"The rise of the internet brought about similar fears, yet it ultimately made learning richer and more accessible."
