Researchers have successfully measured the quantum structure of radium monofluoride (RaF) using ion-trapping and specialized laser techniques, allowing for the detailed characterization of its rotational energy levels and establishing a laser-cooling scheme. These findings are crucial for future experiments focused on laser-cooling and trapping RaF molecules, which are expected to...

NASA was reporting late Friday that an asteroid the size of an airplane traveling at an incomprehensible speed is headed Earth's direction, though it is unlikely to make contact, scientists said. The asteroid, named 2024 NB2, will get as close as 2,390,000 miles from Earth as it passes through the...

Asteroid headed toward Earth at remarkable speed

An international team of astronomers employing NASA’s Webb Space Telescope captured an exoplanet 12 light years away, and in a location that may be familiar to fans of science fiction. The alien planet orbits the K-type star Epsilon Indi A, which is around the same age as Earth’s Sun, but is slightly cooler.

Has it ever crossed your mind that the moon you gaze at today is not in the same spot it was millions, thousands, or even hundreds of years ago? The idea might seem far-fetched, but science tells us that our moon is slowly, but surely, drifting away. Billions of years...

Asteroids regularly fly by Earth at tremendous rates of speed with little to no consequence. A little over a week ago, a big one flew by at 21,000 mph and was knocked off its orbit by Earth’s gravity, but that’s usually the extent of it and not the norm. Sure, it sounds ominous when a […]

Although our universe may seem stable, having existed for a whopping 13.7 billion years, several experiments suggest that it is at risk – walking on the edge of a very dangerous cliff. And it’s all down to the instability of a single fundamental particle: the Higgs boson. In...

The light from the most distant galaxy in the known universe suggests that there's something off about our current cosmological models, a new James Webb Space Telescope study finds. The explanations remain elusive.

James Webb telescope confirms the earliest galaxy in the universe is bursting with way more stars than we thought possible

The James Webb Space Telescope has an eye for bling. A new image released by the European Space Agency shows the powerful telescope's latest — and decidedly glamorous — finding: a bright quasar that looks like a "bejeweled" ring. Quasars are a luminous form of active galactic nuclei...

Do you know any self-righteous person who rarely apologizes? We all have different weaknesses and offend others once in a while. However, some zodiac signs’ pettiness and insecurity hinder them from seeking forgiveness when they cross someone’s path. Instead, they try to prove that they were right when they did something.

Actor Bob Denver, who passed away in 2005, will forever be remembered for his leading role on the classic 1960s sitcom Gilligan’s Island. Denver also played another famous TV character: the beatnik-type Maynard G. Krebs on The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis.

In the world of astrophysics, the complex dynamics of supermassive black holes and their role in galaxy formation continue to present fascinating puzzles for scientists. A significant breakthrough in understanding these celestial giants has been made by an international team of astronomers in collaboration with scientists at the National Science Foundation National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NSF NRAO).

Magnetic winds fuel the growth of black holes

Fifteen years after a launch that was intended to begin just a seven month mission, NASA’s NEOWISE spacecraft has finally shut down. The Near-Earth Object Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer spacecraft surveyed the sky spotting thousands of asteroids within our solar system, and made discoveries such as a striking comet that as named after it. The spacecraft has made years of scientific observations, but with its orbit slowly dropping, it has now been decommissioned and will burn up harmlessly in the atmosphere later this year.
