Research from Sandia National Labs and Texas A&M University has revealed that metals with nano-scale cracks have the seemingly magical ability to repair themselves.
French researchers who analyzed GPS data from over 900 stations covering around 90 worldwide earthquakes say they may have stumbled upon a method for predicting these catastrophic events as much as two hours before they happen.
Researchers have used a half century of lunar ranging data to test the equivalence principle, one of the core principles of modern physics. Here's what they found.
A French woman says she was struck earlier this month by a falling space object in an incident that occurred outside her home in the village of Alsace, Eastern France.
NASA’s Perseverance rover has detected evidence that may point to the presence of organic molecules on Mars, a discovery that helps strengthen the possibility that life could have once existed there.
A plasma spectrometer has been delivered to NASA to assist the agency’s investigations into a mysterious area on the Moon that is the location of an unexplained magnetic anomaly.
