A marine scientist explains the threat of the Loop Current, a 800-pound gorilla of Gulf hurricane risks.
Fossils of Australopithecus in a South African cave are one million years older than previously thought. This challenges the consensus that humans first evolved in East Africa.
For the very first time, an AR contact lens was worn on the eye of a human subject. And it has about 30 times the pixel density of an iPhone.
The way to understand the earliest moments of creation is to recreate those conditions and study them. Why would we stop now?
It's the "intersection of burnout, imposter syndrome, and anxiety.”
Anxieties about being identified will be superseded by fears of being analyzed.
Sick of remembering a random string of letters, numbers, and special characters?
A successful trial that tested a vaccine against bladder cancer in dogs could help develop a similar one for humans.
The airships have a range of 4,000 nautical miles, can fly for five days, and can cruise as high as 20,000 feet at 80 mph. They take to the skies over Spain in 2026.
The architecture and infrastructure found may well have required the greatest amount of skilled labor of any construction from the same time period in the entire continent.
LIGO can detect the inspirals and mergers of the lowest-mass black holes, but not the biggest ones. Here's how pulsars can help.
An out-of-this-world idea could help reduce some of the risk of solar geoengineering.
