Growing evidence suggests a link between the debilitating neurological illness and the microbes that live in our intestines. The vagus nerve may be a pathway.
Today, supermassive black holes and their host galaxies tell a specific story in terms of mass. But JWST reveals a different story early on.
High-frequency oscillations that ripple through our brains may generate memory and conscious experience.
Observations of an enormous cosmic structure, dubbed the "Big Ring," seem to violate the Copernican principle.
The most celebrated genius in human history didn't just revolutionize physics, but taught many valuable lessons about living a better life.
A new analysis suggests previous "total cost of ownership" studies overlooked key factors.

Our cosmic home, planet Earth, has been through a lot over the past 4.5 billion years. Here are some of its most spectacular changes
BMW found it’s possible to remote-drive vehicles using available technology. All it takes is some software updates and a cellular network connection.
HaptX gloves provide high-fidelity touch feedback of virtual spaces (and they look cool, too).
Fire was crucial to the evolution of human technology. That's why alien species stuck in the "oxygen bottleneck" may be forever primitive.
For every proton, there were over a billion others that annihilated away with an antimatter counterpart. So where did all that energy go?
