New NASA supercomputer simulations show that Saturn's rings may have been formed by a 'massive collision' of icy moons.

Sixty-six million years ago, this asteroid crashed into Earth and wiped out most of the life on our planet. Including the biggest, baddest things that ever roamed the planet. Yeah, dinosaurs. If a ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. What astronomers initially suspected to be a new exoplanet is ...

Fusion power has the potential to rewrite trillion-dollar energy markets, but first, startups have to prove their designs will work and won’t be too costly. Neither is easy, especially when ...

One bright day on Earth about 4.5 billion years ago, everything changed. A massive object slammed into the young planet. The impact was so large that bits were flung out into space, eventually ...

Scientists believe they’ve found evidence that life on Earth is over a billion years older than anyone believed was realistic. New research used machine learning to scan ancient meteorites and fossils ...

New research suggests that Theia, the object whose collision with Earth is theorized to have caused the formation of the moon, came from closer to the sun. Artist’s impression of the collision between ...

The Gordon Bell Climate Prize-winning team reached a landmark this year by being the first team ever to develop a Full Earth Simulation at 1 km (extremely high) Resolution. St. Louis, MO, November 20, ...

A research team at the Jülich Supercomputing Center, together with experts from NVIDIA, has set a new record in quantum simulation: for the first time, a universal quantum computer with 50 qubits has ...

The true nature of our universe as been an open debate for millennia, and recently, scientists and philosophers have pondered whether it might be a hyper-realistic simulation perpetuated by some super ...

Scientists have built a 98-qubit machine that they say performs better than any other quantum computer in the world. They've used it to gain new insights into superconducting physics. When you ...

Flight cuts to hit 40 busiest U.S. airports due to government shutdown, computer chips in our bodies could be the future of medicine, and more Length: Long Speed: 1.0x It's been a long time since ...
