A new AI-powered tool has reduced astronomers' workload by 85%—filtering through thousands of data alerts to identify the few genuine signals caused by supernovae (powerful explosions from dying stars). The findings are ...
During his Ph.D. at UMass, Nikhil Malvankar was laser-focused on quantum mechanics and the movement of electrons in superconductors. Now a professor at Yale, the native of Mumbai, India, has pivoted toward biology to explain ...
Why has silicon, one of the most common elements in the universe, gone largely undetected in the atmospheres of Jupiter, Saturn, and gas planets like them orbiting other stars? A new study using observations from NASA's James ...
Since the dawn of human spaceflight, scientists have carefully studied the effects of space and microgravity on astronauts. After decades of observations and examinations, one truth is certain: space is brutal on the human ...
In a Connecticut high school Spanish heritage language classroom, the conversation moves well beyond verb conjugations and vocabulary lists. Students are debating labor laws, analyzing fairness, and connecting their own lives ...
Thorsten Becker, a professor at The University of Texas at Austin's Jackson School of Geosciences, is the author of a new textbook, "Tectonic Geodynamics." The book is co-authored with Claudio Faccenna, who was formerly at ...
Space changes you. It strengthens some muscles, weakens others, shifts fluids within your body, and realigns your sense of balance. NASA's Human Research Program works to understand—and sometimes even counter—those changes ...
In Brazil, a group led by researchers from São Paulo State University (UNESP) in Jaboticabal, in collaboration with the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (EMBRAPA), has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) ...
MBARI's advanced underwater technology is revealing the remarkable species that thrive in the deep sea. In 2019, MBARI researchers encountered an unfamiliar pink snailfish swimming just above the seafloor. New research from ...
Artificial intelligence is here to stay. Most people probably recognize that by now. But there is still skepticism about the use of AI in many areas. One of them is education.
