Rocky planets like our Earth may be far more common than previously thought, according to new research published in the ...

A newly-detected spinning galaxy filament is reshaping our understanding of cosmic structure, gas flows, and the origins of ...

In the end, the Universe becomes a place where gravity and quantum physics slowly turn all mass into faint streams of particles.

New measurements using gravitational lensing suggest the universe’s current expansion rate does not agree with signals from ...

The surface of Earth is finite. We can measure it. If it was expanding, then its size would grow with time. And once again, good ol' Earth helps us understand what the universe might be doing beyond ...

If not in visible stars and galaxies, the most likely hiding place for the matter is in the dark space between galaxies.

"Studying the relic radiation from the beginning of the universe is critical for understanding how the entire cosmos came to be and why it is the way it is." When you purchase through links on our ...

SQUIRE aims to detect exotic spin-dependent interactions using quantum sensors deployed in space, where speed and ...

How the universe got its large magnetic fields has remained one of the stickiest outstanding problems in astrophysics. Now, researchers have proposed a novel solution: a giant "dust battery" operating ...
