Certain lichen species can withstand Mars-like conditions with an X-ray radiation dose of 50 Gy (Grays) that is expected on the Mars surface over one year of strong solar activity, according to new ...

Light from an extremely distant spiral galaxy was bent and magnified by the gravity of a member of the galaxy cluster SMACSJ0028.2-7537 into a ring-like structure, called an Einstein ring. Einstein ...

A new study by University of California, San Diego computational astrophysicist Ethan Nadler shows that star formation can occur in halos down to 10 million solar masses through molecular hydrogen ...

The quantum superposition principle allows us to prepare a system in a superposition of two arbitrary states. The paradigmatic example is the superposition of two coherent states. While the ...

Colossal Biosciences, the world’s only de-extinction company, has announced the rebirth of the once extinct dire wolf (Aenocyon dirus). Dire wolves were large wolf-like canids and among the most ...

2MASX J23453268-0449256 (J2345-0449 for short), an extremely massive, rapidly rotating, jet-launching spiral galaxy approximately 947 million light-years in the constellation of Aquarius, harbors a ...

A remarkable new genus and species of gnathosaurine pterosaur being named Garudapterus buffetauti has been identified from a fossilized upper jaw found in eastern Thailand. “Pterosauria is an order of ...

Emissions from the upper-atmospheric trihydrogen cation (H 3+) have been used to study the global-scale interactions of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus with their surrounding space environments for over 30 ...

Compositionality, the capacity to combine meaningful elements into larger meaningful structures, is a hallmark of human language. Compositionality can be trivial (combination’s meaning is the sum of ...

The Lyman-apha light from JADES-GS-z13-1 has taken nearly 13.47 billion years to reach us, as it dates back to just 330 million years after the Big Bang. A key science goal of the NASA/ESA/CSA James ...

Paleontologists in China have unearthed a relatively complete skull and vertebrae that belonged to a previously unknown metriacanthosaurid theropod dinosaur from the Middle Jurassic period.

Since its discovery during Heinrich Schliemann’s excavations at the legendary fortress city of Troy, the depas amphikypellon — a cylindrical goblet with two curved handles which is thought to be the ...
