For the first time ever, scientists have stored light-based information as sound waves on a computer chip - something the researchers compare to capturing lightning as thunder. While that might sound a little strange, this conversion is critical if we ever…

The climatistas really are a fun and lovable bunch to watch. Also pathetic. They are victims of their own doomsday scenarios of inexorably rising greenhouse gas levels and the parade of horribles soon to follow. The Paris Accord, even if fully implemented…

Shutterstock Cosmic rays are a powerful type of radiation that pose a risk to astronauts. Beyond Earth’s protective magnetic shield, they increase the risk of cancer and other health effects. The first Mars explorers may face a two-fold higher risk than previously…

The Solomon Islands—a nation comprised of nearly one thousand islands located northeast of Australia, between Vanuatu and Papua New Guinea—is an impressive corner of the globe. Dense, lush rainforest blankets the majority of the islands, and the country’s…

The enormous break comes just 2 months after a piece of ice nearly the size of Delaware split from Antarctica.

The human brain is used as a comparison for how computer's function. But, honestly, computers are nothing like human brains. Not yet, at least. That could change as researchers have developed computing technology that uses light to mimic the functionality…

NASA reported that a strong solar blast hit Mars earlier this month, leading to a global aurora on Mars that was 25 brighter than any that had been previously recorded.

Jeffrey C. Hall, Michael Rosbash and Michael W. Young were recognized for research into the cellular mechanisms controlling the body’s 24-hour cycle.

Rainer Weiss, Barry C. Barish and Kip S. Thorne have won the 2017 Nobel Prize in physics for detection of black hole collisions that created gravitational waves. The LIGO and Virgo detectors in the U.S. and Italy were used to conduct the research.
