Scientists monitor unusual seismic activity beneath Yellowstone, raising the volcano alert level amid concerning geological signals that could indicate potential magma movement upward through the crust.

An amateur astronomer in Quebec discovered a previously unknown 390-million-year-old impact crater while searching satellite maps for camping locations, later confirmed by scientists through fieldwork.

Stanford researchers have directly observed quantum jumps of sound in a mechanical resonator for the first time, advancing understanding of how vibrating objects exhibit quantum behavior relevant to quantum computing and sensing.

Researchers have discovered a single-celled amoeba that can replicate at temperatures up to 145°F, setting a new heat-tolerance record for complex organisms and suggesting life’s limits may be more flexible than previously thought.

Researchers at King’s College London have created the first UK database of canine DNA to help police solve crimes by identifying dogs linked to incidents or crime scenes.

Scientific research shows eco-moorings installed off the Dorset coast are successfully reversing damage to seahorse habitats, with seagrass scars shrinking by up to 93% over four years.

Artemis II astronauts will lose radio contact with Earth for approximately 40 minutes as their spacecraft passes behind the Moon, a experience reminiscent of Apollo missions decades earlier.

Venus and a young crescent moon make a close approach this week, offering observers a viewing challenge and attractive pairing in the evening sky if conditions permit.

Researchers propose that the Qumran sect used a 364-day calendar in its early history but abandoned it due to astronomical drift and political changes, later preserving it as religious ideal.

The autumnal equinox occurs this week in the northern hemisphere, marking the astronomical start of autumn. The precise moment falls at 01.05 BST on 23 September.

NASA has successfully powered up the Wide Field Instrument, a 300-megapixel infrared camera aboard the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, as the mission continues toward its destination at the second Lagrange point.

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a method to convert polyethylene plastic waste into gasoline and diesel fuels using molten salts, achieving approximately 60 percent gasoline yield at temperatures below 200 degrees Celsius.
