It’s not a competition, but if it were, Saturn would be winning.
Olympic breakdancers spin on their heads and backs, then freeze in funky poses. How? It’s all about physics.
In trying to solve the ultimate problem, we may have inadvertently created a monster.
Studying theoretical, fast-spinning black holes is helping physicists understand more about the elusive black holes out in the universe.
Want to bring extra life to a glass of champagne or soda water? Physicists will tell you to drop in a small object, such as a berry or raisin.
Tau neutrinos are notoriously difficult to spot in detectors like IceCube. But researchers have managed to isolate 7 candidates.
The US, Europe and China are all planning particle colliders that would study the Higgs boson.
Maritime folklore is awash with tall tales of monstrous waves. A new study gets closer to understanding where they come from and how to predict them.
During a walk in the Scottish Highlands, one of the greats of particle physics had the idea of a lifetime
A civil engineer lays out the physics behind Dali’s crash into the Francis Scott Key Bridge pier.
Textbooks often show Earth’s orbit around the Sun as an almost egg-shaped ellipse. The real story is very different.
Quantum computing has huge promise from a technical perspective, but the practical benefits are less clear.
How can the same material, ice, have diametrically different physical properties - sticking and sliding?
People have been flying airplanes for well over a century. Engineers know how to balance all the forces at play, but still aren’t exactly sure how some of the physics of flight actually works.
A new measurement of gravity at small scales hints at an alternative to billion-dollar experiments for the future of physics.
The people manning the guns are also at risk of injury from the force of the weapon.
Robots often have a hard time navigating through debris, but robots designed based on worms and snakes could move around obstacles faster, thanks to an idea called mechanical intelligence.
When you’re running late in the winter, you don’t want to have to spend time scraping frost off your windshield. Try some expert-recommended techniques instead.
Microplastic pollution is a growing problem − one lab is looking at tiny insects as inspiration for how these pollutants might move through water.
