In January I wrote a piece titled “ 5 Physics Equations Everyone Should Know .” Lots of you weighed in with your own nominations, and there were plenty of good suggestions. So I’ve decided to do a ...

Simulations indicate that Saturn’s moon Enceladus ejects less ice into space than previously estimated. In the 1600s, astronomers Christiaan Huygens and Giovanni Cassini aimed their telescopes at ...

In theory, quantum physics can bypass the hard mathematical problems at the root of modern encryption. A new proof shows how.

The higher the number in the ratio, which represents water, the gentler (or weaker) the resulting brew. So, if you take your coffee black, you may consider a slightly different ratio, like 17 or 18 to ...

All-solid-state batteries are emerging energy storage solutions in which flammable liquid electrolytes are substituted by solid materials that conduct lithium ions. In addition to being safer than ...

Water, though familiar, still hides astonishing secrets. When squeezed into nanosized channels, it can enter a bizarre “premelting state” that is both solid and liquid at once. Using advanced NMR ...

New research from NASA's InSight lander, which recorded over 1,300 Marsquakes between 2018 and 2022, suggests Mars possesses a solid inner core, approximately 600 kilometers in radius, surrounded by a ...
