In the 30 years since the discovery of 51 Pegasi b, more than 6,000 planets outside our Solar System have been catalogued. Two modern-day explorers explain how.
These engaging activities can help students visualize and manipulate the relationships between objects in space—skills that carry across multiple disciplines.
By using something called a quantum grid, scientists have found a clever way to simultaneously measure momentum and position without violating Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.
Every single day, space technology impacts our lives. But a new report reveals gaps between what Australians think and what they know about space.
For many college students, satellites are faint dots crossing the sky on clear nights. These objects are background details from science fiction to reality, like GPS, satellite radio, and WiFi.
EU researchers are developing powerful new telescopes to help uncover Earth-like planets around distant stars and advance the search for extraterrestrial life.
"With this, we can detect very tiny changes in both position and momentum at once, beyond the limit of any classical sensor," the authors explained.
