Paleontologists have discovered 50- to 25-million-year-old fossilized footprints of invertebrates and vertebrates, including a false saber-toothed cat (nimravid), at John Day Fossil Beds National ...

The newly-discovered planet orbits at an angle of 90 degrees around 2MASS J15104786-2818174 (hereafter 2M1510), an eclipsing binary composed of two equal-mass brown dwarfs. Circumbinary planets are ...

Jewelry in a treasure hoard found in Thetford Forest, East Anglia, indicates that Thetford was pagan until the 5th century CE — significantly later than the previously established date of the 380-90s ...

The new hybrid device combines decoupled sensors with a flexible wireless powering and transmitting module for emotion recognition, according to a research team headed by Penn State scientists. “This ...

Using data from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), astronomers at MIT have discovered a rocky exoplanet orbiting the bright K-dwarf star BD+05 4868A and observed variable transit ...

“To paraphrase the Greek philosopher Heraclitus of Ephesus, who famously said Panta Rhei — everything moves, we thought that perhaps Panta Kykloutai — everything turns,” said Dr. István Szapudi, an ...

Observations of large valley networks on today’s Mars suggest formation by flowing water. However, most climate models cannot sustain temperatures above freezing. To understand this contradiction, a ...

A new genus and species of cymothoidan isopod that lived during the Early Cretaceous epoch has been identified from two well-preserved specimens found in Lebanon. Stemming from a freshwater lake ...

Highly ionized neon gas detected at the center of the spiral galaxy Messier 83 by the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) aboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope could be a telltale signature of ...

Earth’s coastlines are fascinating places where liquids mix and materials are shaped into distinct landforms like river deltas. Similar active coastlines exist on Saturn’s moon Titan, where liquid ...

The fossil record of freshwater crayfish is surprisingly sparse, comprising mostly trace fossils, some body fossils and rarely gastroliths. Paleontologists from Flinders University, the University of ...

NASA’s Curiosity rover has found evidence of a carbon cycle on ancient Mars, bringing scientists closer to an answer on whether the planet was ever capable of supporting life. Planetary researchers ...
