The gravitational wave events GW241011 and GW241110 provide strong evidence for the growth of black holes through successive mergers.

Finally found: using speckle imaging, researchers have spotted what is likely the predicted 1.6-solar-mass companion to the red supergiant Betelgeuse.

If you measure the age of a star using two different methods, do those ages agree? New research shows where our age estimates might be mismatched and what this disagreement could mean.

Introducing exoALMA: a survey of 15 large, bright protoplanetary disks that has revealed gas structures that point to potential planet formation.

How do interactions binary black holes experience in dense star clusters impact the gravitational waves we detect on Earth? Recent simulations show that stellar collisions leave imprints on the masses...

A measure to cancel some Canadian tariffs is all but certain to stall in the House. But with a handful of Republicans in favor, the vote sent a signal of opposition to the levies.

Recent reports have indicated that the White House may soon be proposing drastic cuts to future budgets for the National Science Foundation and the NASA Science Mission Directorate.

“This kind of cut would kill American science and boost China.”…

He grew up playing with model construction sets. As an adult, he tinkered with molecules instead, creating nanomachines and winning a Nobel Prize.

On Christmas Eve, the Parker Solar Probe was set to become the closest spacecraft to the sun, flying within a few million miles of the solar surface.
