Astronomers have picked up a radio signal from eight billion years ago, meaning it’s traveled more than half the age – and width – of the observable universe to get here. Thanks to its extensive experience in the cosmos, the signal can actually help us… Continue reading Astronomers detect radio burst from 8 billion years ago
Antimatter has intrigued and confounded physicists for almost a century, and the effect of gravity on antimatter has been a point of disagreement. New research may have settled the debate by finding that antihydrogen atoms, the antimatter counterpart o… Continue reading Antigravity disproved: Antimatter responds to gravity just like matter
Astronomers have put together one of the most comprehensive maps of all the matter in the universe. The huge undertaking hints at a slightly smoother universe than we thought, suggesting that something might be missing from our models.Continue ReadingC… Continue reading Detailed new map of all matter in the universe hints at something missing
Ice and water might not seem very exciting to most of us, but they’re actually super strange from a scientific standpoint. Researchers have now discovered a brand new type of ice that’s described as being a true “snapshot” of water, and may be found on… Continue reading Bizarre new form of ice might be “true glassy state” of water

Researchers have created a new class of robots that can shift between solid and liquid forms on demand. In a series of tests, these new bots could move and change shape to run obstacle courses, carry objects, or even escape from a jail cell like a Term… Continue reading “Robot” made of shape-shifting matter liquefies to escape jail
The intriguing cosmic mystery of fast radio bursts (FRBs) has now shed light (pun intended) on another mystery. By studying the signature of an FRB from a nearby galaxy, astronomers have found that the Milky Way has far less matter than expected.Contin… Continue reading Fast radio burst reveals the Milky Way is emptier than we thought
Everything has to end eventually – but does that include the universe itself? And if so, how? And when? It might be hard to imagine a catastrophe big enough to affect the entirety of existence, but physicists do expect it all to end at some point – and… Continue reading The end of everything: 5 ways the universe could be destroyed
Arlo Technologies announced its support for Matter, a connectivity standard built around a shared belief that smart home devices should be seamlessly interoperable, secure and reliable. Arlo is joining industry leaders to participate in the development… Continue reading Arlo Technologies partners with Matter to provide home security solutions for customers
An exotic state of matter originally hypothesized almost 50 years ago has been observed for the first time. Created by Harvard researchers, this material called quantum spin liquid could eventually help improve quantum computers.Continue ReadingCategor… Continue reading Harvard scientists observe new state of matter, a quantum spin liquid
