Our cells look younger than those of chimps due to chemical changes to our genome when we branched away from a common ancestor 8 million years...
In a delightful alignment of astronomy and mathematics, scientists at MIT and elsewhere have discovered a "pi Earth"—an Earth-sized planet that zips around its star every...
An international team of astrophysicists has found a distinctive signature of black hole event horizons, unmistakably separating them from neutron stars — objects, comparable to black...
An international team of archaeologists and paleoanthropologists has found ancient human and animal footprints on the surface of an ancient lakebed in the Nefud Desert, Saudi...
Researchers have found a way to send tiny, soft robots into humans, potentially opening the door for less invasive surgeries and ways to deliver treatments for...
Created at Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics at Garching, Germany, the turbulence code GENE—which stands for Gyrokinetic Electromagnetic Numerical Experiment—has demonstrated to be extremely handy...
