Virtual particles may not be real, but they help physicists track how forces move, and allow for incredibly precise measurements in particle physics.

Quantum entanglement occurs when two subatomic particles become linked in such a way that their properties remain connected, no matter how far apart they are. A change to one particle seems to ...

One of the biggest navigation challenges is knowing where you are in the open ocean without tools or devices. This remarkable skill is exemplified by the ancient techniques once used by expert ...

Using a global network of telescopes, astronomers have detected the lowest-mass dark object yet found in the universe. Finding more such objects and understanding their nature could rule out some ...

Researchers at Seoul National University and Kyung Hee University report a framework to control collective motions, such as ring, clumps, mill, flock, by training a physics-informed AI to learn the ...

A study led by Howard Chen looks to explain what NASA space telescopes are missing in the search for life beyond Earth.

Truck accidents lead to thousands of fatalities each year. Learn how to protect yourself and navigate the aftermath.

If there is an absolute law in the universe, it’s that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. Space is big, and while the speed of light is incredibly fast to us humans, on interstellar ...

For years, researchers have puzzled over how the ancient people of Rapa Nui did the seemingly impossible and moved their iconic moai statues. Using a combination of physics, 3D modeling and ...

A new study suggests yet another theory for a possible extra planet in our solar system, likely of a size between Mercury and Earth. The authors dubbed it Planet Y.

Long-distance relationships can be difficult. Although every journey is different, some things hold true for every relationship. Here's my experience on what's helped me survive the distance.
