In a groundbreaking discovery at Dinosaur Ridge, Colorado, scientists have unearthed evidence of a unique form of courtship behavior among theropod dinosaurs, relatives of the famous Tyrannosaurus rex. This new find, as reported by Live Science, suggests that these prehistoric creatures used a kind of “moonwalk” to impress potential mates around 100 million years ago. The discovery, published in Cretaceous …

Next time you’re drinking a frosty iced beverage, think about the structure of the frozen chunks chilling it down. Here on Earth, we generally see ice in many forms: cubes, sleet, snow, icicles, slabs covering lakes and rivers, and glaciers. Water ice does this thanks to its hexagonal crystal lattice. That makes it less dense than nonfrozen water, which allows …

The vision sounds irresistible: step onto a train in New York, and emerge 54 minutes later in London, having traveled through a tunnel beneath the Atlantic Ocean. This kind of travel is described in some recent proposals. But is a trans-Atlantic tunnel really possible or the stuff of science fiction? The short answer: It’s probably not possible with current technology. …

A new discovery in the Grand Canyon is giving scientists a closer look at some of Earth’s earliest animals. This stunning find includes fossils of soft-bodied creatures from more than 500 million years ago. These aren’t just any fossils – they offer a rare glimpse into how early animals lived, fed, and evolved during a time of rapid biological change. …

A carbon dioxide-mapping satellite and four Earth-observation spacecraft launched successfully tonight (July 25) from South America. A Vega C rocket, operated by the French company Arianespace, lifted off from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana on schedule tonight at 10:03 p.m. EDT (11:03 p.m. local time in Kourou; 0203 GMT on July 26). The four-stage, 115-foot-tall (35 meters) Vega C …

The Hubble Space Telescope has snapped some spooky looking photos of our solar system’s newest interstellar invader on the run. The object, dubbed 3I/ATLAS, was first spotted careening through the outer limits of the Sun’s domain earlier this month, and appears to be a comet. Upon closer inspection, its speed was found to be so incredible that there could be …

Looking up at the night sky, it may seem our cosmic neighbourhood is packed full of planets, stars and galaxies. But scientists have long suggested there may be far fewer galaxies in our cosmic surroundings than expected. In fact, it appears we live in a giant cosmic void with roughly 20% lower than the average density of matter. Not every …
