Solar Orbiter has captured the clearest evidence yet that a solar flare grows through a cascading "magnetic avalanche." Small, weak magnetic disturbances rapidly multiplied, triggering stronger and stronger explosions that accelerated particles to .. ...

A new building material developed by engineers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute could change how the world builds. Made using an enzyme that turns carbon dioxide into solid minerals, the material cures in hours and locks away carbon instead of ...

Scientists have discovered that the human brain understands spoken language in a way that closely resembles how advanced AI language models work. By tracking brain activity as people listened to a long podcast, researchers found that meaning unfolds ...

Quantum computers could revolutionize everything from drug discovery to business analytics--but their incredible power also makes them surprisingly vulnerable. New research from Penn State warns that today's quantum machines are not just futuristic . ...

After the Big Bang, the Universe entered a long, dark period before the first stars formed. During this era, hydrogen emitted a faint radio signal that still echoes today. New simulations show this signal could be slightly altered by dark matter, ...

Astronomers have captured the most dramatic view yet of a planet losing its atmosphere, watching the ultra-hot gas giant WASP-121b for an entire orbit with the James Webb Space Telescope. Instead of a single stream of escaping gas, the planet is ...

A nearby active galaxy called VV 340a offers a dramatic look at how a supermassive black hole can reshape its entire host. Astronomers observed a relatively weak but restless jet blasting outward from the galaxy's core, wobbling like a spinning top . ...

NASA's Artemis II rocket has reached its launch pad after a painstaking overnight crawl across Kennedy Space Center. Engineers are now preparing for crucial fueling and countdown tests ahead of the first crewed Artemis mission. The mission will send ...

Physicists have unveiled a new way to simulate a mysterious form of dark matter that can collide with itself but not with normal matter. This self-interacting dark matter may trigger a dramatic collapse inside dark matter halos, heating and ...

As global energy demand surges--driven by AI-hungry data centers, advanced manufacturing, and electrified transportation--researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory have unveiled a breakthrough that could help squeeze far more power from ...
