Using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT), astronomers from West Virginia University and elsewhere have observed two distant pulsars identified with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST). Results of the observational campaign, presented October 27 on the arXiv preprint server, deliver important insights into the properties of these two pulsars.

What do brains and the stock market have in common? While this might sound like a set-up for a joke, new research from U-M researchers reveals that the behaviors of brains and economies during crises can be explained using observations common in the realm of physics. Their work is published in the journal Proceedings of […]

One of the most fascinating UFO videos ever filmed by NASA was recorded during space shuttle Atlantis’ trip to the International Space Station in September of 2006.
During the 13-day mission, a number of mysterious objects were spotted by the Astronauts, and one in particular sighting caused Atlantis to delay […]

Taxi drivers who slow down when searching for passengers are not only more efficient but also earn more, according to a new study. The research analyzed over 2.3 billion GPS data points collected from 40,000 taxi drivers across three Chinese cities to understand which search strategies produce better outcomes, specifically, how drivers can locate passengers […]
No one can control the weather, but certain clouds can be deliberately triggered to release rain or snow. The process, known as cloud seeding, typically involves dispersing small silver iodide particles from aircraft into clouds. These particles act as seeds on which water molecules accumulate, forming ice crystals that grow and eventually become heavy enough […]
A few days ago, I wrote about non-singular black hole models, specifically one known as the Hayward model. Since its introduction in 2006, several variations of the Hayward model have been introduced, including a rotating model similar to the Kerr metric used to study the supermassive black holes we’ve observed directly. This raises an interesting […]
For the first time, an international research team led by the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has demonstrated that applying pixelized strong-lensing modeling on a galaxy cluster scale can significantly improve the precision of the inferred Hubble constant (H0)—a key parameter that describes the expansion rate of the universe.

Far from Earth, in the vast expanses of space between stars, exists a treasure trove of carbon. There, in what scientists call the “interstellar medium,” you can find a wide range of organic molecules—from honeycomblike polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to spheres of carbon shaped like soccer balls.

The United States and China are locked in a contest to be the first country to send humans to the lunar surface in half a century. But there’s a developing twist: an emerging competition between American companies to build the landing vehicle that could win this new moon race for the US.
