An authentic career strategy built around sustainability involves embedding these key principles into all jobs, argues Marilyn Waite.

The Ring Nebula, a bright, circular planetary nebula, is created by a dying Sun-like star. After centuries, we finally know its true shape.

Dubbed "Valeriana" by researchers, the city of 50,000 peaked around 800 AD before being swallowed by the jungle.

Motility was suggested as a promising "biosignature" as early as the 1960s, but the technology was insufficient — until now.

Since mid-2022, JWST has been showing us how the Universe grows up, from planets to galaxies and more. So, what's its biggest find of all?

Physicist Don Lincoln explains why mathematics is a powerful tool for scientific modeling, but is not a science itself.

A proton is the only stable example of a particle composed of three quarks. But inside the proton, gluons, not quarks, dominate.

In many ways, the rising anti-phone fervor in schools mirrors moral panics of the past.

"There is so much more uncertainty and volatility in a world that is moving fast with big countries that are more at odds with each other and with fewer rules of the road that leaders, companies, and societies are adhering to."

The discovery of ultra-bright, ultra-distant galaxies was JWST's first big surprise. They didn't "break the Universe," and now we know why.

Today's philosophy students would be justified in asking, "What does any of this have to do with living?"

Seven years ago, an outburst in a distant galaxy brightened and faded away. Afterward, a new supermassive black hole jet emerged, but how?

Yondr CEO Graham Dugoni unpacks the technological zeitgeist in this exclusive Big Think interview covering media ecology, leadership, AI, human connection, and much more.

Here in our Universe, stars shine brightly, providing light and heat to planets, moons, and more. But some objects get even hotter, by far.

“Technology has always been co-opted for war, but truly intelligent AI, let alone a superintelligence, is a different beast entirely.”

Other plans for the tech: organ banking and deep space travel.

Most stars shine with properties, like brightness, that barely change at all with time. The ones that do vary help us unlock the Universe.

Astronomer Adam Frank reflects on some responses to his recent appearance on the Lex Fridman Podcast.

The electromagnetic force can be attractive, repulsive, or "bendy," but is always mediated by the photon. How does one particle do it all?

Despite no experimental evidence showing that gravitons exist, they remain a respectable concept in the world of professional physicists.
