Ryugu's samples reveal that water activity on asteroids lasted far longer than scientists thought, possibly reshaping theories of how Earth gained its oceans. A billion-year-old impact may have melted ancient ice, keeping asteroids wet and ...

Researchers discovered a new field of ancient tektites in South Australia, revealing a long-forgotten asteroid impact. These 11-million-year-old glass fragments differ chemically and geographically from other known tektites. Although the crater ...

Auburn scientists have designed new materials that manipulate free electrons to unlock groundbreaking applications. These "Surface Immobilized Electrides" could power future quantum computers or transform chemical manufacturing. Stable, tunable, and ...

CO ice blocks on Mars may dig gullies as they slide and sublimate in the thin atmosphere. In lab experiments, scientists recreated these eerie, worm-like movements under Martian conditions. The findings help explain unusual dune formations and deepen ...

Scientists at TU Wien have uncovered that quantum correlations can stabilize time crystals--structures that oscillate in time without an external driver. Contrary to previous assumptions, quantum fluctuations enhance rather than hinder their ...

Scientists at the University of Hawaii have discovered why it rains on the Sun. Solar rain, made of cooling plasma, forms rapidly during solar flares, a mystery now solved by modeling time-varying elements like iron. The finding upends long-held ...

Astronomers are investigating a strange class of exoplanets known as eccentric warm Jupiters -- massive gas giants that orbit their stars in unexpected, elongated paths. Unlike their close-orbiting "hot Jupiter" cousins, these planets seem to follow ...

Researchers analyzing pulsar data have found tantalizing hints of ultra-slow gravitational waves. A team from Hirosaki University suggests these signals might carry "beats" -- patterns formed by overlapping waves from supermassive black holes. This . ...

Scientists at the University of Cambridge have uncovered a surprising quantum effect inside an organic material, something once thought impossible outside metals. The team found that a special molecule can turn light into electricity with incredible ...

MIT researchers found that metals retain hidden atomic patterns once believed to vanish during manufacturing. These patterns arise from microscopic dislocations that guide atoms into preferred arrangements instead of random ones. The discovery ...
