Medical science can save lives, but should it do so at the cost of quality of life?
Uploading your mind is not a pathway to immortality. Instead, it will create a possibly hostile digital doppelgänger.
It isn't just identical particles that can be entangled, but even those with fundamentally different properties interfere with each other.
WhiteSmoke Grammar Checker keeps your spelling and grammar issues at bay while also working as a translator.
For decades, theorists have been cooking up "theories of everything" to explain our Universe. Are all of them completely off-track?
From life on Earth to the planet itself, there are four ways our planet will actually experience "the end," no matter how we define it.
In the early stages of our Solar System, there were three life-friendly planets: Venus, Earth, and Mars. Only Earth thrived. Here's why.
What do we mean by a black hole's size? A photon sphere? The minimal stable orbit? The event horizon? The singularity? Which one is right?
Two very different ideas, wormholes and quantum entanglement, might be fundamentally related. What would "ER = EPR" mean for our Universe?
Just by observing the tiny amount of deuterium left over from the Big Bang, we can determine that dark matter and dark energy must exist.
Hubble showed us what our modern day Universe looks like. JWST's big goal was to teach us how the Universe grew up. Here's where we are now.
As the American population grows, fewer people will die of cancer.
It's that time of year when the hours of meticulous wrapping of Christmas toys are viciously undone in seconds by tiny children.

A newly discovered “ultrahot Jupiter” has the shortest orbit of any known gas giant.
Hunter-gatherers probably had more spare time than you.
The nearby, bright star Fomalhaut had the first optically imaged planetary candidate. Using JWST's eyes, astronomers found so much more.
Temporal lobe epilepsy seems to rewire a part of the brain that's key to storing memories.
The game of Plinko perfectly illustrates chaos theory. Even with indistinguishable initial conditions, the outcome is always uncertain.
If we waited long enough, would even protons themselves decay? There are certain things in the Universe that, if you leave them alone for long enough, they’ll eventually decay away. […]
Science was never the same after meeting ‘the particle who lived.’ Back in the early 1930s, there were only a few known fundamental particles that made up the Universe. If you […]
From up close, the cracking sound of a thunderclap dominates. From far away, it's more like a drawn-out rumble. Can science explain why?
The Taupo volcano was responsible for one of the most violent eruptions on record.
After 100 million nights of people asking, "What are those twinkly lights?" it is pretty remarkable that we happen to live in one of the first generations that actually knows the answer.
Despite their brief history, computers and AI have fundamentally changed what we see, what we know, and what we do.
