University of Massachusetts Amherst researchers have discovered a surprising “shape-changing” liquid that seems to bend the laws of thermodynamics.
The strange compound—made of oil, water, and magnetic nickel…

Astronomers have been watching Uranus for decades and, until recently, it seemed like a fairly calm, blue-green planet. But new findings, based on two decades of observations from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, paint a different picture….

On Thursday, researchers unveiled the most precise measurement yet of a neutrino, scaling down the maximum possible mass of the ghostly specks of matter that permeate our universe.
The result, published in the journal Science, does not define the…

New research is reshaping our understanding of Venus. A recent study suggests its outer crust may be undergoing convection, potentially explaining the planet’s 85,000 volcanoes. This ground-breaking theory, highlighted by SciTechDaily,…
