NASA plans a key fueling test for Artemis 2 this Saturday, marking a practical step toward the first crewed lunar mission of the Artemis era.
Astronomers have observed the first imaged black hole launching a jet stretching 3,000 light-years, tracing matter as it escapes from the edge of its glowing shadow.
NASA is preparing to conduct the critical Artemis II wet dress rehearsal, fueling and countdown test for the SLS rocket ahead of a possible lunar orbit launch in early February 2026.
A newly discovered planet 146 light-years away is located in the habitable zone, but its surface temperature of -70°C challenges the idea of life as we know it. Could life exist in such extreme cold, or is this planet too inhospitable?
The James Webb Space Telescope has uncovered new evidence suggesting that the first supermassive black holes formed much more rapidly than previously believed, challenging traditional theories about their origin and reshaping our understanding of the early universe.
Great white sharks develop sharper, more specialized teeth as they age, allowing them to become even more efficient predators. This tooth evolution is a perfect example of how animals adapt to meet the challenges of survival.
NASA and SpaceX moved up the Crew-12 launch to Feb. 11 to restore full staffing on the ISS after a medical evacuation, emphasizing caution and continuity rather than emergency.
NASA prepares for the Artemis II wet dress rehearsal, a full fueling and countdown simulation essential to validating systems before the first crewed lunar mission in decades.
Scientists have developed a new crystal that significantly improves vacuum ultraviolet laser output, offering greater efficiency, stability, and potential for advanced scientific applications.
The Snow Moon illuminates February skies just before NASA’s Artemis II crew prepares to fly around the Moon, offering a final familiar full Moon before space travellers see it from beyond.
Exploring how tsetse fly behaviour and genomics intersect, scientists aim to enrich traditional control methods with genetic insights into sensory cues, infection susceptibility, and biological interventions.
Research shows that, within realistic fluid environments, motile and sessile ciliates achieve similar nutrient feeding rates due to hydrodynamics, challenging assumptions about feeding strategy advantages.
Webb’s infrared vision is reshaping our understanding of the universe’s first supermassive black holes, suggesting they grew early and rapidly from heavy seeds or intense feeding, challenging classical growth models.
Lilly and Seamless Therapeutics partner in a $1.12B gene‑editing collaboration to develop therapies for genetic hearing loss using programmable recombinases and joint development.
Michigan’s DNR seeks to manage elk numbers, aiming for a winter population of 500–900 through regulated hunting to maintain ecological balance.
China’s all‑superconducting magnet achieves 35.6 tesla, over 700,000× Earth’s field, setting a global record and opening new frontiers in high‑field research.
One of the world’s largest solar projects is planned for California’s Central Valley, signaling a major shift in land use and the state’s clean energy future.
Abandoned after the 2011 nuclear disaster, Fukushima’s towns have seen nature flourish—but the return of humans raises new ecological and social questions.
Pangolins, increasingly sold as exotic pets, are being poached and trafficked at high prices, deepening the crisis facing one of the world’s most threatened mammals.
While global sea levels continue to rise, scientists say sea levels around Greenland may fall due to land uplift and weakening gravitational pull as ice melts.
Environmental crises in Iran—driven by water scarcity, drought, and pollution—are intensifying social, economic, and political pressures across the country.
Australia set a new power demand record on a day when renewables supplied more than half of electricity, marking a pivotal moment for the grid.
A newly identified fossil species from China reveals that some animals survived a major mass extinction half a billion years ago, reshaping views of early life.
As drought conditions persist, Tampa Bay officials have limited outdoor watering to one day a week to conserve water and ease strain on supplies.
