Archeologists are confronting an “unfathomable” loss as border wall construction is set to cut across ranches that are home to unique historical sites, many of which haven’t been fully studied.
There’s no clearer sign of the data center boom than rampant gas projects that have been proposed or that are already under construction.
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is expected to discover as many as 200,000 new planets and reveal details about the elusive nature of dark matter and dark energy.
How a tiny little electronic switch sparked the computer revolution.
Luxury water can contain different minerals and taste noticeably different. But a remote source, alkaline pH, and high price do not necessarily mean better hydration.
The LINK probe was supposed to use robotic arms to capture Swift and lift it into a safe orbit. Problems with its control system forced NASA to call off the attempt.
“People have talked about the Colorado River crisis for decades—we’re now in it,” says one expert. “Everyone you talk to is like, ‘Shit, man.’”
S301 passes close to Sagittarius A*—so close that its orbit could reveal how the black hole’s rotation warps the spacetime around it.
From granola to guacamole, a wide variety of foods have been recalled lately over salmonella risks. Experts say common-sense precautions go a long way.
How the joule thief circuit “steals” energy from seemingly depleted power cells.
This year’s El Niño is shaping up to be the strongest on record. Here’s what to expect.
El Niño coupled with Saharan dust is making this year’s hurricane season a dud. But there’s still potential for dangerous storms.
Researchers found that a metabolite produced by gut bacteria can weaken the barrier that protects the brain and promote changes associated with the cognitive disease.
An object observed by the James Webb Space Telescope lends credence to a strange explanation for the mysterious red spots in the early universe.
In 2027 and 2028, there will be two spectacular, long-duration solar eclipses. Here’s what you need to know about them.
Observatories have been built in mines, deep under the Antarctic ice sheet, and elsewhere in an effort to detect the fleeting particles.
The island could capture billions of gallons of water a year if it implemented systems to catch it as it falls from the sky.
A massive new gas plant in Texas will be built with much less efficient technology than regular gas plants. It’s far from the only data center power project to rely on dirty turbines.
Over a billion people worldwide have livers with excess fat, which can lead to a host of medical problems. Researchers think AI tools can spot the condition—and help stop it—early enough to save lives.
It’s been a century since the Iberian Peninsula has been in the full shadow of the moon. Here’s what it looked like in the path of totality.
