In theory, if you sweep a laser pointer across the moon fast enough, you can cast spots that move faster than light across the surface. Now, scientists have reported that this theoretical curiosity may be practically useful out in the cosmos.
Astronomers may have succeeding in measuring the space-time warp in the gravity of a binary star. They've managed to determine the mass of a neutron star just before it vanished from view in a race against time.
Astronomers have taken a closer look at the nearby Andromeda galaxy and have made some startling discoveries. They've found striking differences from our own Milky Way, suggesting a much more violent history of mergers with smaller galaxies.
Most people know that too much sunlight can cause skin cancer, but did you know it may also cause problems in fertility? Scientists have found that increased UV radiation can have an effect on human fertility over generations.

Our sense of belonging to the male or female gender is an inherent component of human identity perception. Now, though, scientists have found that gender identity is reflected and verifiable in the cross-links between brain regions.
A new antibiotic known as Teixobactin made by Eleftheria terrae could be the new antibiotic that's won't lose a battle against dangerous infections, unlike the medical epidemic of bacterial resistance for a growing number of once treatable illnesses into stronger strains.
