Astronomers have captured the clearest picture yet of how massive stars are born, revealing a dramatic interplay between ...

Researchers in Germany have now directly observed this wobble with the highest precision yet thanks to a large ring laser gyroscope they developed for this purpose. The instrument, which is located in ...

In recent years, NASA's Parker Solar Probe has given us a close-up look at the sun. Among the probe's revelations was the ...

The strongest magnetic fields on Earth that we can currently produce are courtesy of MagLab in Tallahassee, Florida, at their pulsed field facility.

Making a black hole is easy. Just squeeze a bunch of stuff into a small enough volume. It doesn’t even matter what you use. You can collapse stars, planets, old car tires, Labubus, or missing left ...

A team of geophysicists say that an enormous mass shifted deep beneath the Earth's surface 18 years ago, as spotted by NASA ...

A daring bid to bottle starlight is moving from blueprints to reality, as a vast global team begins the painstaking task of ...

Nuclear fusion promises a green and infinitely renewable supply of energy—if we can harness it. Fusion happens all the time ...

Researchers built a fingernail-sized magnetometer using metasurfaces that measures fields billions of times weaker than Earth's, opening new paths for quantum sensing. At the heart of the sensor is an ...

Geophysicists from ETH Zurich and SUSTech, China, have demonstrated the dynamo effect of the Earth’s core in a model in which viscosity has no influence, as is the correct physical regime for the ...

The magnetized rocks of Earth's crust and mantle, also known as the upper lithosphere, accounts for generating 6 percent of the planets magnetic field. Data from the European Space Agency's Swarm ...

Earth spins, shifts, and now… flips? Our planet’s gymnastics routine continues underneath our feet nearly every day, but researchers at the Helmholtz Centre for Geosciences in Germany recently mapped ...
