Inspired by origami, researchers at University of Washington have developed a solution to help reduce impact forces, which could one day let us reuse spacecraft or even harvest energy for electronics.

The Axion Dark Matter Experiment (ADMX) is the world's first dark matter experiment that's hunting specifically for axions.

Meet the fleet of next-generation autonomous robots that are modeled entirely after insects.

PFAs have been used in everyday products around the world since the 1940s, but these human-made chemicals are now present in our air, water, and bodies and we don't know how to get rid of them.

A recent breakthrough from researchers at Rice University promises to make graphene out of garbage in a flash — here’s how this miraculous transformation happens.

Humans are launching four separate missions to Mars in July 2020.

Ultra-high-energy neutrinos are hitting Antarctica, so what experiments are working to discover the particles?

Supermassive black hole M87* has been observed shooting jets of physical material into space at extreme speeds that might break the cosmic speed limit.

It’s been one year since China’s Chang’e 4 landed on the far side of the moon—what has it learned so far?

Japan approved construction for the world’s next largest neutrino detector—here's what we can expect.

We don't know what dark matter is, because we can't detect it. But new observations from Hubble could illuminate dark matter's true identity—and the role it plays in the fate of our universe.

Myocarditis occurs when viruses that normally infect other parts of the body end up infecting the heart—but what happens then?

This particle accelerator is so small it fits on a microchip.

Two massive neutron stars collided, and the result rocked our entire universe—here’s what we learned.

Massive red supergiant Betelgeuse has been losing its sparkle, which has led many scientists to wonder: Is one of the sky’s brightest stars headed toward its demise by way of supernova explosion?

Insect populations are dropping, but turning off your lights could help.

This 3D-printed plastic rabbit is an advanced proof of concept for DNA as data storage.

The Parker Solar Probe and the Solar Orbiter are working hand-in-hand to paint a bigger picture of what’s happening on the Sun.

These researchers paired biology with artificial intelligence to create the world’s first “living” robots.

We're constantly hearing about nuclear enrichment in the news, but what does it mean and when should we be concerned?

This is the leading cause of heart attacks worldwide.

The moon’s water could serve as a precious resource for deep space exploration, but how do we actually turn it into rocket fuel?

You might want to take a seat for this one: early humans walked on two feet WAY before we previously thought.

NASA's quest to explore deep space is energizing a space mining boom on the Moon.
