New research shows that ice in space, once thought to be fully amorphous, may contain up to 25% tiny crystalline structures—altering theories on planet formation and the delivery of life’s building ...

Current climate models have so far been unable to adequately reproduce the clouds over the Southern Ocean around Antarctica.

NASA is focused on the moon as a crucial stepping stone for future deep space exploration. Earth's moon is a 4.5-billion-year ...

Evidence of algae growth and climate simulations reveal the Arctic had seasonal ice, not a permanent ice shelf, for much of ...

A clearer grasp of how ice bubbles form could also help scientists better understand the thermal and mechanical properties of ...

The authors proposed two hypotheses: first, that methamphetamine induces neuroinflammation, and second, that it alters neuronal stem cell differentiation. These are valuable hypotheses, and the ...

Characterization of intracellular synapse heterogeneity aides to understand the intricate computational logic of neuronal circuits. Despite recent advances in connectomics, the spatial patterns of ...

This most fundamental question was famously posited by none other than Nobel laureate physicist Enrico Fermi (1901–1954).

Molecular dynamics model uses topological order parameter to show stratification of water molecules based on density.

The exhaust from airplanes contains small particles called aerosols. These particles act as a “landing zone” for the molecules in water vapor. Under the right conditions, the water molecules come ...

These oils are, however, not full of hate, and there is a massive amount of peer-reviewed, rigorous evidence pointing to the contrary. Seed oils are linked to a reduction in inflammatory markers and ...

For years, scientists have experimented with engineering techniques that can safely modify rainfall. But experts say the technology isn't capable of causing extreme, sudden flooding.
