Nearly a century after astronomers first proposed dark matter to explain the strange motions of galaxies, scientists may finally be catching a glimpse of it. A University of Tokyo researcher analyzing ...

One of the most elegant theories about the origins of life on our planet is that it was kick-started by a delivery from outer space. This idea suggests that prebiotic molecules—the building blocks of ...

This article delves into the discovery and classification of binary clusters, pairs of star clusters, which provide insights ...

What can the close flyby of the asteroid 99942 Adophis to Earth in 2029 teach scientists about the interiors of asteroids and other planetary bodies? This | Space ...

An international research team led by PD Dr. Florian Peissker at the University of Cologne has used the new observation ...

"In order to get such high sensitivity in the mid-infrared, one needs to go to space, as the atmosphere severely messes up ...

New observations made with the ERIS instrument at the Very Large Telescope facility disprove the assumption that the supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way devours nearby dust objects ...

The discovery of strange, ultra-red objects—especially the extreme case known as The Cliff—has pushed astronomers to propose ...

A new study says observations from the NASA Fermi space telescope suggest a halo of dark matter around the center of our ...

Astronomers have uncovered clues to a red giant’s chaotic past by detecting subtle stellar vibrations that hint at a long-ago collision and an unexpectedly rapid spin. Astronomers at the (IfA) have pi ...

Abstract: In this article, the design and implementation of a bidirectional curvature sensor based on a fiber-optic interferometer are presented. The sensor structure was fabricated by fusing a ...
