Scientists have witnessed evidence of a collision between black holes so huge that it defies their understanding of physics.

A new study led by University of Houston researchers, in collaboration with planetary scientists worldwide, suggests Uranus does have its own internal heat—an advance that not only informs NASA's ...

But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...

This progress means that, for the first time, complicated astrophysical events like shocks and turbulence can be studied in a ...

Recent physics studies have found that light can sometimes flow in unexpected ways, behaving like a so-called "superfluid." ...

An attosecond—or 0.000000000000000001 second—is no time at all for a person. That is not so for electrons, atoms and molecules, and laser-wielding scientists are revealing the action ...
