This week, researchers published LIGO findings that hint at the existence of second-generation black holes. Astronomers captured a spectacular new image of the Milky Way across a wide range of radio ...

The ISS has “come into its own as a very sophisticated scientific laboratory,” says retired NASA astronaut Scott Kelly, who ...

It's a well-known fact that quantum calculations are difficult, but one would think that quantum computers would facilitate the process. In most cases, this is true.

Earlier this year I met the Massachusetts-based steampunk artist Bruce Rosenbaum at the Global Physics Summit of the American ...

A study shows electrons escape solids only through quantum doorways that appear in layered materials, changing how we ...

Two recently observed black hole mergers, occurring just weeks apart in late 2024, have opened an extraordinary new window ...

Another near-term application is the quantum gravity gradiometer being developed by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.

Scientists at TU Wien have uncovered that quantum correlations can stabilize time crystals—structures that oscillate in time without an external driver. Contrary to previous assumptions, quantum ...

Oftentimes, we think of space as an endless, mostly empty vacuum, a silent backdrop where planets, stars, and galaxies play out their dance. We also think of time as something separate, a steady ...

(via PBS Space Time) To observe the quantum nature of gravity and of spacetime itself, we need a particle collider the size of the solar system. Or we could just physics smarter and build one on a lab ...

PARIS—Capella Space parent IonQ has signed an agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to work on developing and deploying quantum technologies in space. The integration of the quantum ...
