Scientists find mysterious “dark energy” is evenly distributed throughout space and time.

The energetic universe as seen with the eROSITA X-ray telescope

In the 1920s, Edwin Hubble made a groundbreaking discovery while observing distant galaxies: the universe is expanding. However, it wasn’t until 1998 that the observation of Type Ia supernovae led to the further discovery that the universe is not just expanding, but also experiencing accelerated expansion. Astrophysicist Joe Mohr from LMU explains that to account…

Have you ever experienced time slowing down or speeding up? A new study suggests that our moment-to-moment perception of time is not continuous but may stretch or shrink with each heartbeat.

Wavefunctions of the electron in a hydrogen atom at different energy levels

A recent study published in the journal Nature by researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science introduces a new tool that makes use of the wave-particle duality of electrons.

Caltech engineers have discovered that Leonardo da Vinci’s understanding of gravity, although not entirely accurate, was ahead of his time by centuries.

Quantum computer modules being aligned so atoms can transfer between quantum computer microchips

Researchers have demonstrated for the first time that quantum bits (qubits) can directly transfer between quantum computer microchips and demonstrated this with record-breaking speed and accuracy.

Researchers have found a solution inspired by loofah sponges that could purify enough water to meet a person’s daily needs, even on cloudy days.

The Dunhuang molten salt solar power plant will provide 390 million kWh of clean power each year and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by more than 3500 tons. And it can run 24-hours a day, even when the sun does not shine. It does this by storing energy in a molten salt solution for later use.

When a flame burns on earth, heated gases rise from the fire, drawing oxygen in and pushing combustion molecules out. As the flame burns, it heats the air around it and causes it to expand and rise upward. In microgravity however, hot gases do not rise.

David Nadlinger, a quantum physicist at the University of Oxford, has done the impossible. He captured a picture of a single atom using a normal DSLR digital camera.

Bang your head! Scientists at Stanford University created a sound that measures a whopping 270 decibels. The sound was created underwater and is believed to be the limit of how loud a sound can be.

New study finds our perception of time is related to our heartbeat.

A new quantum twist – scientists accidentally create a very powerful microscope, capable of seeing quantum electronic waves in ways that were unimaginable before.

In the early 1500’s, Leonardo da Vinci explored gravity as a form of acceleration and modelled the gravitational constant to around 97% accuracy.

Breakthrough! Scientists demonstrate that quantum bits can directly transfer between quantum computer microchips allowing chips to slot together like a jigsaw puzzle.

This loofah-inspired, sun-driven gel could purify all the water you’ll need in a single day.

Solar power scientists are now using molten salt to store the sun’s energy. Here’s the science of how it works.

Here’s what a flame looks like in space, where there is no gravity.
