Update: SpaceX has published a video taken near the launch pad of Starship nailing an exotic ‘flip’ maneuver shortly before a hard landing destroyed the rocket. Both the company, test directors, and CEO Elon Musk have all made it abundantly clear that despite…

Although we think of the cells inside of us and the organelles that make them up as pretty well mapped, it seems that there are still some surprises in store.

A little over a decade from now, NASA plans to send astronauts to Mars for the first time. This mission will build on decades of robotic exploration, collect samples from the surface, and return them to Earth for analysis.

The surface of Mars, by every measurement we've taken, is currently an inhospitable wasteland. Only dust devils roam its arid surface; the only water is permanent ice. Yet evidence that water once flowed and pooled on the planet's surface keeps mou

The Sun may be in for a very busy time. According to new predictions, the next maximum in its activity cycles could be the one of the strongest we've seen.

Scientists have created a first-of-its-kind mouse model of the COVID-19 disease, capable of revealing how the SARS-CoV-2 virus wreaks havoc on multiple organ systems in the animal's body.

In 2017, NASA space probes detected a massive, human-made 'barrier' surrounding Earth.

There's a lot we still don't understand about COVID-19, but scientists just took a step forward in figuring out why some patients reach the critical stages of the disease. A new study of thousands of COVID-19 patients has revealed eight genetic seq

"I've often seen a cat without a grin," thought Alice. "But a grin without a cat! It's the most curious thing I ever saw in all my life!"

Forget particles and waves.

In our endless search to understand the Universe and our place within it, precious little blips in data can hint at entire new worlds.

In April of 1990, our Universe opened up to us in a whole new way.

Astronomers hunting for radio signals from alien civilizations have detected an "intriguing signal" from the direction of Proxima Centauri, the nearest star system to the sun, The Guardian reported.

While many of us might long to just sleep through this entire winter, humans - unlike a lot of other mammals - don't have the capacity to hibernate.

The Universe is full of galaxy clusters, but Abell 2261 is in a class of its own. In the galaxy in the centre of the cluster, where there should be one of the biggest supermassive black holes in the Universe, astronomers have been able to find no t

COVID-19 has arrived on the most remote continent in the world.

The emergence of a new variant of coronavirus has sparked renewed interest in the part of the virus known as the spike protein.

When navigating a space, it turns out human brains form eerily similar spatial-awareness brain waves. Scientists have discovered this after devising a method to scan our brains during free movements, as opposed to lying still in a scanner.

Supercontinents – giant landmasses made up of multiple continents – could emerge again on Earth 200 million years from now, and where they form on the globe could drastically affect our planet's climate.
