The future of healthcare may bring powerful collaborations between AI and medical professionals.
The best evidence for dark matter is astrophysical and indirect. Do new lensing observations point to ultra-light, wave-like dark matter?
How does the mind interact with the body? Nobody really knows — but these philosophers ventured an answer.
Once the initial blaze of heat dissipated, the constituent particles of atoms were free to bind.
Forget these scientific myths to better understand your brain and yourself.
As AI evolves — and more robotic warfare systems are deployed — the nature of conflict could change beyond recognition.
Quantum uncertainty and wave-particle duality are big features of quantum physics. But without Pauli's rule, our Universe wouldn't exist.
Amyloid plaque can build up in body organs other than the brain. The resulting diseases — AL amyloidosis, ATTR amyloidosis and more — cause much suffering.
The cosmic microwave background offers clues.
Data scientists first gained prominence by making us click on ads — now the profession spans a multiverse.
Finding out how the Universe grew up was the biggest science goal of JWST. This ultra-early proto-galaxy cluster is one amazing discovery.
One hypothesis: "gossip traps."
It can write 5-minute songs based on short text prompts.
Ocean fertilization is extremely controversial, but if done correctly, it just might work.
The LHC has a long, productive life ahead of it. An upgraded version, called the “High Luminosity LHC,” will be available in 2028.
A study shows that the brains of lonely individuals respond in odd ways to visual stimuli, while those of non-lonely people react similarly.
The acceptance of our cosmic loneliness and the rarity of our planet is a wakeup call.

Perhaps we should be searching for “other Mercurys” rather than “other Earths.”
JWST has brought us more distant views of the early Universe than ever before. Is the Big Bang, and all of modern cosmology, in trouble?
Cosmologists are largely still in the dark about the forces that drive the Universe.
The curiosity of children is a national resource. Adults destroy it.
Without modularization, many epic projects simply would be impossible.
If you look into a mirror, you'll notice that left-and-right are reversed, but up-and-down is preserved. The reason isn't what you think.
What would become the Big Bang model started from a crucial idea: that the young Universe was denser and hotter.
Is Eliezer Yudkowsky the same false prophet that Paul Ehrlich was?
Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works engineering division has devised many jaw-dropping aircraft. Here are some of the best — and one ship.
Like Mars today, Venus used to be a sci-fi superstar. Recent discoveries could re-ignite our interest in Earth’s “evil twin.”
A recent study is the first to fabricate electronic components from endogenous molecules.
With infrared capabilities and image sharpness far beyond Hubble's limits, JWST looked at Hubble's deepest field, revealing so much more.
You are an energy field — but not the “chakras” or “auras” kind.
