The web-like features are believed to be sculpted by ancient groundwater, offering new clues about the Red Planet's watery past.
Space exploration can bring people together and reflect deep societal divisions.
On Feb. 27, 1942, in the midst of World War II, sudden, severe interference struck anti-aircraft radar stations on the coast of England. The obvious answer seemed to be a new German signal-jamming tactic. But physicist James Stanley Hey of the Army Operational Research Group realized that the signals started at sunrise and ended at Continue reading "Feb. 27, 1942: The birth of solar radio astronomy" The post Feb. 27, 1942: The birth of solar radio astronomy appeared first on Astronomy Magazine .
Researchers found that cutting two amino acids common in animal protein—methionine and cysteine—made mice burn significantly more energy. The boost in heat production was nearly as powerful as constant exposure to cold temperatures. The mice didn’t eat less or exercise more; they simply generated more heat in their beige fat. The discovery hints that diet alone might activate the body’s calorie-burning machinery.
A U.K. astrophotographer had to put together some clever equipment tricks to show six of the seven planets in a rare 'parade' over the south of England.
The release of 158 specially bred Floreana giant tortoises is a win for both the animal and its long-lost island ecosystem
Astronomers have spotted what may be one of the universe’s earliest barred spiral galaxies — a striking cosmic structure forming just 2 billion years after the Big Bang. The galaxy, COSMOS-74706, dates back about 11.5 billion years and contains a stellar bar, a bright, linear band of stars and gas stretching across its center, similar to the one in our own Milky Way.
Saturn’s largest moon, Titan, may have been born in a colossal cosmic crash. New research suggests Titan formed when two older moons slammed together hundreds of millions of years ago—an event so violent it reshaped Saturn’s entire moon system and may have indirectly sparked the formation of its iconic rings. Clues come from Titan’s unusual orbit, its surprisingly smooth surface, and the strange behavior of the tumbling moon Hyperion.

A new wearable AI system watches your hands through smart glasses, guiding experiments and stopping mistakes before they happen
The admission comes after MPs said they were concerned about emissions from a boom in data centres.
Although astronomers have found thousands of exoplanets, the number of confirmed exomoons—and exorings—is still zero. But that may soon change
The supermarket chain says it will stop sourcing fresh, chilled and frozen mackerel by 29 April.
Pouring 65,000 litres of sodium hydroxide into the Gulf of Maine removed up to 10 tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere without harming wildlife, according to the researchers behind an ocean alkalinity enhancement test
Researchers at Nagoya University have created a more efficient iron-based photocatalyst that could reduce the need for rare and expensive metals in advanced chemistry. Unlike earlier designs, the new catalyst uses far fewer costly chiral ligands while still precisely controlling the three dimensional structure of molecules.
