A new study suggests a canyon system twice the length of the Grand Canyon could be buried beneath an ice sheet in Antarctica.

A stunning NASA animation has captured magnetic field activity on the sun from 2011 to 2013, displaying it through multi-coloured moving lines. Magnetic field lines are essentially invisible, and interact with each other when the sun rotates.

Einstein was right, gravitational waves do exist! Find out how scientists made the historic discovery!

Japanese start-up ‘Hoshinchu’ creates floating bonsai trees through use of repelling magnets to make the miniature plants levitate.

Galileo Galilei was an astronomer, physicist, mathematician, inventor, and philosopher who discovered four of Jupiter's largest moons and that the universe does not revolve around Earth.

A team of astronomers has detected signs of a black hole with a mass of 100,000 times that of our Sun around the center of the Milky Way. This would be the second largest black hole in the galaxy.

Even though Pluto was discovered 86 years ago, we knew very little about the dwarf planet until NASA's New Horizons mission.

NASA just announced that in 2018, a small space probe will journey to a distant asteroid, venturing beyond Earth’s orbit and propelled entirely by sunlight.

In a new article published last month, scientists have revealed that the moon's gravity can reduce the amount of rainfall on Earth.

A recently published study indicates that more women with higher oestradiol levels (which occurs at the beginning of their menstrual cycle) find other ovulating women more likely to ‘entice their date’ than women with lower oestradiol levels.

A recent study published in Nature revealed the brain circuit that controls sighing, showing that it is more than just an emotional cue, but also a life-saving reflex.

Babylonians used Geometry to Track Jupiter’s Movements - Astronomers discovered how to calculate Jupiter’s position with geometry between 350 and 50 BC, 1400 years before the Europeans did.

NASA recently captured imagery of water ice hills on Pluto ‘floating’ in a sea of frozen nitrogen and moving over time like icebergs. These nitrogen glaciers measure one to several miles across.

Scott Kelly’s mission doesn’t end when he lands back on Earth. Kelly and his twin brother will be observed for two years to see how space impacts a person’s health.

You’ll never look at a cotton candy machine the same way ever again!

NASA’s Dawn spacecraft has allowed animators to bring some of the most prominent geological structures on the dwarf planet Ceres to life. The animation shows some of its most prominent craters including Occator, and its large, conical mountains.
