Cosmic dust may have delivered elements crucial for life to early Earth. Our planet is relatively poor in several elements that are necessary for the chemistry of life, but the dust that ...

This breathtaking image captured dust in cosmic space in unprecedented detail, allowing astronomers to look at the 3D structure of interstellar material with precision they never thought possible.

Astronomers are mapping the 3D structure of interstellar dust. Jacob Jencson from Caltech described the detail as “shocking.” Astronomers see these cosmic layers as “onion-like,” said Josh ...

"This process is like a cosmic CT scan, where we can look through different slices of cosmic history and track how matter clumped together at different epochs." A powerful combination of data from ...

The researchers support their solution with laboratory experiments that simulate cosmic conditions. These involve extremely cold conditions in which dust, ice and pebbles are present, and ...

They occur when something produces a flash of light that radiates out into space. If that light encounters a physical barrier, such as clouds of cosmic dust, it will reflect, arriving at a different ...

Scientists have come a step closer to understanding how collisionless shock waves -- found throughout the universe -- are able to accelerate particles to extreme speeds. Scientists have come a ...

The Kumbh Mela, a spiritual gathering held every 12 years at sacred river confluences in India, symbolizes the union of human and cosmic energies. Rooted in ancient traditions and celestial ...

As the star spins, these beams sweep past Earth and produce periodic pulses of radio waves, much like a cosmic lighthouse. This behaviour has earned them the name “pulsars”. Pulsars typically ...

Ha-Seong Kim is headed to Tampa Bay. The Korean infielder signed a two-year, $29 million deal with the Rays on Wednesday, The Post’s Jon Heyman confirmed. Kim could earn $2 million in plate ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A cosmic object, ASKAP J1839-0756, challenges current understanding of neutron stars by emitting radio pulses every 6.5 hours, far slower than typical pulsars ...
