In the stone mass of the Great Pyramid, a corridor about 9 meters long was outlined not by drills or demolition, but by particles raining down from space. Later confirmed with radar, ultrasound, and ...
Analysis reveals what appears to be a channel of hot, low-density plasma stretching out from our solar system toward distant ...
A single particle cut through the Mediterranean in February 2023 carrying an almost absurd amount of energy. Detected deep off the coast of Sicily by the KM3NeT/ARCA neutrino telescope, the neutrino ...
For the first time, the Tibet ASγ Experiment has successfully measured magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence on scales below one parsec (approximately 3.3 light-years) within the gamma-ray halo ...
When electronics meet cosmic rays, bad things can happen. Chip makers need to test what their products can withstand, and ...
The reason photographic darkrooms are needed is because almost any amount of light can ruin the film or the photographic paper before they are fixed. Until then these things are generally kept in ...
Three years ago, in the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the passage of an "ultra-energetic" cosmic neutrino was observed—the ...
Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The first step on the moon was one of humanity's most exciting accomplishments. Now scientists are planning return trips – and ...
A jetliner was nearly knocked out of the sky and sent plummeting to a deadly crash that would have killed all onboard by a bizarre attack from outer space – an explosive burst of cosmic rays sent ...
Cosmic voids may seem like the emptiest places in the universe, stripped of matter, radiation, and even dark matter. But they’re far from nothing. Even in these vast empty regions, the fundamental ...
A space and radiation expert is disagreeing with Airbus’ recent explanation of a flight incident that left at least 15 people injured back in October. On Oct. 30, a JetBlue Airbus A320 aircraft ...
Every second, particles from distant stars and supernovas pass through our atmosphere—and even through us. In this video, we build a muon detector that can measure these invisible cosmic particles ...
