On Aug. 14, 2019, a gravitational wave -- a massive ripple through the fabric of space-time -- washed over the Earth. The wave was detected by sophisticated, fine-tuned lasers in the U.S. and Italy.

Ripples in spacetime have revealed a distant collision between a black hole and a mystery object, which appears too massive to be a neutron star but not massive enough to be a black hole. That ...

Astronomers have long debated why so many icy objects in the outer solar system look like snowmen. Michigan State University ...

Carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur are crucial to life on Earth. But the relative amounts of those elements are different from those of other rocky objects in our solar system, so scientists have been ...
