An ultramassive black hole around 33 billion times the mass of the sun has been discovered by UK astronomers. Scientists from Durham University said the gargantuan black hole is one of the biggest ever found. The team described its findings, published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, as "extremely exciting".
An expert witness on the stand in the Gwyneth Paltrow trial used Newton’s theory of gravity to explain why he believed the actress’s account of the Utah ski collision was more likely than her accuser’s.
The winds, which may trigger auroras, will likely reach our planet on Friday or Saturday, Daniel Verscharen from University College London said.
Findings could help explain where Moon’s water is stored – and power future human habitations on the lunar surface
It was 60 years ago, on September 12, 1962, that President John F Kennedy pledged to put a man on the Moon before that decade was through. Now NASA has stated that humans will be living and working there within the next 10 years.
Study marks first detection of any form of light emitted by an exoplanet as small as rocky planets in our own solar system
Florence Débarre’s discovery of genetic data online showed for first time that animals susceptible to coronavirus were present at market
Designs have been inspired by drafts for homes in outer space
Photo Illustration by The Daily Beast / HandoutLast October, astronomers notched another record for the books when they observed the brightest-ever gamma ray burst ever seen, which released an explosion that traveled over 1.9 billion light-years to sweep through the solar system. A follow-up investigation unveils new secrets about the explosion in unprecedented detail—giving scientists a better understanding of what happened and how such an event rollicked through space.The gamma ray burst “gave
Adam Driver's new film "65" gets everything wrong from the title to the dinosaurs. Paleontologists say there's no excuse given today's fossil records.
Scientists have developed a sensor that can test for COVID and flu at the same time and tell which one you have within 10 seconds. "They can improve the ability to detect very small quantities of basically anything that needs to be sensed," he said.
Humans using sugar in cockroach traps has inadvertently led to female roaches being turned off by the sugary "gifts" males use to entice them into mating.The big losers are ordinary male cockroaches, who now secrete a gift too rich in glucose and take too long to start mating for the taste of many females.

The very notion of resurrecting the long-extinct woolly mammoth was the stuff of fantasy not that long ago, but scientists are already working on ways to achieve something close to that, using DNA from soft-tissue in frozen mammoth remains and meshing it with that of a modern-day elephant. Vow, an Australian cultivated food company that creates meat in a laboratory setting from animal cells, says that it has used advanced molecular engineering to resurrect the woolly mammoth in meatball form, by combining original mammoth DNA with fragments of an African elephant's DNA.
A scientifically-backed proposal to classify three lithium salts as toxic to reproduction under Europe’s hazard system is at a dead end, and business -- including potential harm to workers handling lithium salts -- continues as usual, Natacha Cingotti writes.
The gamma-ray burst occurred two billion light-years away from Earth.
Lockheed Martin announced today the creation of a wholly owned subsidiary called Crescent Space Services that will focus on infrastructure for the moon, the latest sign that the aerospace and defense giant is bullish on the future of a lunar economy. The new venture will focus initially on a communications and navigation network in cislunar orbit it's calling Parsec. The Parsec network will be owned and operated by Crescent, with Lockheed designing and building the spacecraft.
Scientists said Monday they have discovered water inside tiny beads of glass scattered across the Moon, suggesting that one day it could be extracted and used by the "explorers of tomorrow".A "back of the envelope" calculation suggested that there could be around a third of a trillion tonnes of water inside all the Moon's glass beads, he added.
Scientists have created a new building material from potato starch which, with a pinch of salt, could help build houses on the Moon and Mars.
Scientists have discovered a new and renewable source of water on the moon for future explorers in lunar samples from a Chinese mission. Water was embedded in tiny glass beads in the lunar dirt where meteorite impacts occur. The beads range in size from the width of one hair to several hairs; the water content was just a miniscule fraction of that, said Hejiu Hui of Nanjing University, who took part in the study.
