DARPA’s FROSTY program aims to turn Arctic radio noise into radar, boosting U.S. awareness as the High North grows contested.

Almost 13,000 years ago, North America underwent drastic changes at a rapid rate. Mammoths, mastodons, giant ground sloths, and many other large animals went extinct. Around the same time, the Clovis ...

Scientists are uncovering new clues that a cosmic explosion may have rocked Earth at the end of the last ice age. At major Clovis-era sites, researchers found shocked quartz—evidence of intense heat ...

People have long asked whether the world they experience is fundamentally real or the product of a simulation, a question often framed today as the simulation hypothesis. A new paper examines a ...

Deep beneath the Earth lies a mysterious and powerful force. A wellspring of nuclear energy which could one day rip us apart. Many scientists have found clues that natural nuclear reactions have ...

Tabletop publishing giant Asmodee now completely owns Exploding Kittens. After several years of a strategic investment in the studio, the publisher recently made a move to purchase the remaining stock ...

A simulation has shown the devastating impact 3I/ATLAS could have if it crashed into Earth. The interstellar space object was first identified by the NASA-funded ATLAS telescope in Chile over the ...

For months now, astronomers have been closely watching the mysterious interstellar object 3I/ATLAS as it rips through the solar system at a breakneck velocity. And before it finally leaves us for good ...

ACM, the Association for Computing Machinery, today presented a 26-member team with the ACM Gordon Bell Prize for Climate Modeling in recognition of their project "Computing the Full Earth System at 1 ...

The Gordon Bell Climate Prize-winning team reached a landmark this year by being the first team ever to develop a Full Earth Simulation at 1 km (extremely high) Resolution. St. Louis, MO, November 20, ...

Astronomers recently detected a stray quasi-moon in our planet’s orbit, but it's hardly the first stowaway to hang out around Earth. Unlike the Earth's moon, quasi-moons are not gravitationally bound ...
