Water may have flowed on the asteroid that birthed the space rock Ryugu a billion years after it formed, much later than ...

At any given moment, trillions of particles called neutrinos are streaming through our bodies and every material in our ...

Now, MIT physicists have proposed a bold new way to probe these elusive particles: by building the world’s first neutrino laser. Unlike massive reactors or particle accelerators ...

The famous asteroid, Ryugu, is drip-feeding scientists crucial information about its watery past. Using a tiny, 80-milligram ...

Scientists and NASA are eyeing radioactive batteries that could keep spacecraft running far beyond current lifespans.

The subatomic particles called neutrinos are famously elusive. But an unconventional trick could make a laser beam of the aloof particles.

A high-precision time measurement system based on the radioactive decay of manganese-53 was used to determine the precise age ...

X-ray scans reveal rare chemical signatures in asteroid grains that hint at water, organics and the building blocks of life.

A clutch of dinosaur eggs found in central China is about 86 million years old, according to scientists who used an “atomic ...

A team of Italian researchers has uncovered compelling evidence of anomalous radioactive decay in cobalt-57 (Co-57) under ultrasonic stimulation, offering strong experimental support for the Deformed ...

Early Earth lacked life’s essentials until a collision with Theia added them. This chance event made life possible. After the Solar System formed, it took no more than three million years for the ...
