Earth's climate has swung between ice ages and warmer periods for millions of years, driven by subtle changes in our planet's orbit and axial tilt.

Clocks on Mars tick faster by about 477 microseconds each Earth day, a new study suggests. This difference is significantly more than that for our moon, posing potential challenges for future crewed missions.

Scientists said the loss hinders their work and diminishes America’s leading presence on the continent. The NSF said it continues to support Antarctic research.

The planet formed 50 million years after the dinosaurs died, making it incredibly young in cosmic terms.

There’s a less than 5 percent chance that earlier anomalies can be explained by fourth neutrino “flavor.”…

It isn't because they've been staring at the TV for too long.

Could mammoths have walked among us just 2,000 years ago?

A mysterious winter wonderland on Mars has been revealed, captured in stunning high-resolution images by two of the most advanced space orbiters.

Compelling evidence that the structure of matter surrounding supermassive black holes has changed over cosmic time has been uncovered by an international team of astronomers.

In a glimpse of the early universe, astronomers have observed a galaxy as it appeared just 800 million years after the Big Bang—a cosmic Jekyll and Hyde that looks like any other galaxy when viewed in visible and even ultraviolet light but transforms into a c…

A molecular superfluid, high-resolution microscope and a protein qubit are on our list

This stunning image is full of young star clusters.

Over the past decades, engineers have introduced numerous technologies that rely on light and its underlying characteristics. These include photonic and quantum systems that could advance imaging, communication and information processing.

It vanished beneath the ice... 8 months later, it returned with secrets no one had seen.

"We are only beginning to discover the true complexity of these worlds."
