Although our solar system is billions of years old, we’ve only recently become better acquainted with one of its more dynamic and captivating inhabitants known as (2060) Chiron.
Quiet quitting isn’t just for burned out employees. Atoms carrying information inside quantum computers, known as qubits, sometimes vanish silently from their posts. This problematic phenomenon, called atom loss, corrupts data and spoils calculations.
“[This] was the best-case scenario. Unfortunately, yes, [Officer Michael Cook] was struck in the leg, but he got to go home to his family,” Muskogee Police stated
It seems that we are completely alone in the universe. But simple reasoning suggests that there should be an abundance of alien civilizations. Maybe they’re all out there, but they are keeping their distance. Welcome to the zoo (hypothesis).
In the quest for ultra-precise timekeeping, scientists have turned to nuclear clocks. Unlike optical atomic clocks—which rely on electronic transitions—nuclear clocks utilize the energy transitions in the atom’s nucleus, which are less affected by outside forces, meaning this type of clock could potentially keep time more accurately than any previously existing technology.
When Waterbury Police officers instructed the man to get out of the car, he instead put it in drive and began moving forward, partially pinning an officer between the car and a cruiser
Scientists have spotted a massive black hole in the early universe that is “napping” after stuffing itself with too much food. Like a bear gorging itself on salmon before hibernating for the winter, or a much-needed nap after Christmas dinner, this black hole has overeaten to the point that it is lying dormant in its host galaxy.
The last meteor shower of the year—the Ursids—peaks Sunday, a few days before Christmas.
MIT physicists have created a new and long-lasting magnetic state in a material, using only light.
More than a decade ago, dark matter experts Daniel Akerib and Thomas Shutt joined the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, continuing their mission to uncover the elusive substance. SLAC recently caught up with them to discuss the current state of the dark matter search.
A study of more than 26,000 white dwarf stars has confirmed a long-predicted but elusive effect in these ultra-dense, dying stars: Hotter white dwarfs are slightly puffier than cooler ones, even when they have the same mass.
An international research team has used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to observe massive galaxies discovered by the Subaru Telescope in a corner of the early universe known as the Spiderweb protocluster. The JWST results confirm what had been suggested from the Subaru Telescope observations, namely that supermassive black hole activity can truncate the growth of galaxies.
An international team of astronomers has analyzed multi-color photometric and spectroscopic observations of the star Gaia20bdk. As a result, they found that Gaia20bdk is a FUor-type young stellar object. The finding is presented in a paper published Dec. 10 on the arXiv preprint server.
In a span of less than 22 hours, SpaceX managed three Falcon 9 rocket launches and one landing of a Dragon spacecraft.
