ESA’s Herschel space observatory is expected to exhaust its supply of liquid helium coolant in the coming weeks after spending more than three exciting years studying the cool universe. Herschel was ...

About four and a half years from now, a set of three small satellites ­– each not much larger than a microwave oven ­­– will launch into low-Earth orbit and begin a two-year mission in space, ...

A study published in Nature reports the first observation of emergent anyonic behaviour in a 1D ultracold bosonic gas. This research is a collaboration between Hanns-Christoph Nägerl's experimental ...

NASA and GLOBE, an international student Earth science program, invite the public to join in a scientific experiment on Thursday, Oct. 13. It’s simple: observe the sky over your area and report on the ...

One of the discoveries that fundamentally distinguished the emerging field of quantum physics from classical physics was the observation that matter behaves differently at the smallest scales. A key ...
