"We studied the last several orbits before the merger, when the entwined magnetic fields undergo rapid and dramatic changes, ...

We often blame our stars for the relationships that do not go as planned. Instead of enriching our lives, some connections ...

Standing on a neutron star would not feel like standing on anything at all. The gravity is so extreme that the human body ...

Neutron stars are the crushed remains of massive stars, packed into spheres only a few miles across—but heavier than the Sun. Their density is so extreme that a single teaspoon of neutron-star matter ...

Brenden Aaronson has also been a big part of this revival. The USMNT international has played a huge part in the team’s ...

In the early 1960s, Dutch astronomer Adriaan Blaauw observed stars moving at unusually high speeds moving through the Milky ...

However, there's another point in fermionic dark matter's favor. The Gaia spacecraft's map of the Milky Way – the most ...

Scientists discovered that galaxy clusters are about twice as heavy as previously assumed. The additional mass comes mainly ...

The second reason is simple: location, location, location! The millisecond pulsar appears to be near Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy. Sagittarius A* weighs ...

Galaxy clusters, the largest structures held together by gravity in the universe, may be far heavier than scientists once ...

Scientists have uncovered incredible truths about the universe, yet some mysteries still refuse to show us an explanation.

The two pillars of modern physics, quantum theory and Einstein’s theory of general relativity, seem incompatible with each other. For those pillars to align, gravity would have to obey quantum physics ...
