Using data from the RadioAstron satellite, astronomers have produced a radio image of two supermassive black holes at the center of the distant quasar OJ 287, where the secondary black hole is in a 12-year orbit around the primary.

A fleet of sentinel spacecraft, including one with a huge solar sail, could watch out for sneaky “space tornadoes” posing a threat to Earth during solar storms, a new study suggests.
The proposal says that four deep-space spacecraft, collectively…

Scientists are exploring many ways to use light rather than heat to drive chemical reactions more efficiently, which could significantly reduce waste, energy consumption, and reliance on non-renewable resources.
A…

Astronomers say NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope may have spotted the universe’s first “dark stars,” primordial bodies of hydrogen and helium that bear almost no resemblance to the nuclear fusion-powered stars we’ve come to…

Entanglement, a cornerstone of quantum technologies, typically suffers from environmental noise, yet recent research demonstrates that carefully controlled dissipation can surprisingly create stable, entangled states. Diego Fallas Padilla,…

Astronomers have captured a radio image showing two black holes orbiting each other for the first time, confirming a prediction that has eluded scientists for decades.
The newly released image reveals a pair of supermassive black holes locked in…
A rocky visitor from beyond our solar system is leaking water like a “fire hose running at full blast,” a new study reports.
Using NASA’s Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory, scientists have for the first time detected the chemical fingerprint of…
