A new animation allows us to get the gist of how sparkly the night sky would look to us in gamma rays thanks to the data collected by NASA’s Fermi Space Telescope in just one year. The rest of this ...
Earth is under constant bombardment by cosmic rays, showers of high-energy particles that blast our planet from all directions at near light speed. While this might sound like the precursor to a ...
Using data from the Keck Cosmic Web Imager, an animation has been created that "reveals a 3-D slice through a network of ...
Ben may have been right way back when Stan Lee and Jack Kirby created him and the rest of the Fantastic Four 64 years ago, but we know a heck of a lot more about cosmic rays today. Back then, Grimm, ...
Researchers have used cosmic rays from deep space to create a powerful probe to investigate the hidden mysteries of the Great Pyramid of Giza. The team, including Fermilab High Energy Physics (HEP) ...
Some of the most energetic cosmic rays in the galaxy may come from a surprisingly small source. If Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics researcher Laura Olivera-Nieto and her colleagues are right, ...
In 1991, the University of Utah Fly's Eye experiment detected the highest-energy cosmic ray ever observed. Later dubbed the Oh-My-God particle, the cosmic ray's energy shocked astrophysicists. Nothing ...
Scientists have revealed a hidden trigger of lightning that could resolve a centuries-old weather mystery. Earth is struck by some 44 bolts of lightning each second, on average. Despite this, ...
Cosmic rays are particles from outer space that travel across the universe. They can be made by the sun, by other stars exploding, and even black holes. They move extremely fast, nearly the speed of ...
While the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens were butting heads and other body parts a couple of Sundays ago, they were simultaneously taking a whole different type of pounding, though they ...
