Even in modern-day society, women are vastly underrepresented in the fields of engineering, computer science and mathematics.
It turns out that the sea-level rise scenarios for high-risk coastal areas aren't good enough--at least according to new research.
A certain mollusk may have inspired some new materials. Scientists have identified two optical structures within the blue-rayed limpet's shell that gives it its blue-striped appearance that could be used in bio-inspired materials.
It turns out that black holes may not always be turbulent. Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), researchers have discovered regions where certain organic molecules endure the intense radiation near the supermassive black hole at the center of galaxy NGC 1068, also known as ...
Scientists have witnessed an increase in carbon dioxide's greenhouse effect at Earth's surface for the very first time. The findings reveal a warming effect that's being directly affected by rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere.
