Amazon's Project Kuiper said Wednesday it is planning to launch 27 satellites April 9 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida. It is the project's first full batch of Internet connection satellites and will be launched by United Launch Alliance. According to Project Kuiper their first-generation satellite system will put a total of 3,200 into orbit in the first constella

An huge asteroid that was briefly feared to strike Earth now has a nearly four percent chance of smashing into the Moon, according to new data from the James Webb Space Telescope. The asteroid, thought to be capable of levelling a city, set a new record in February for having the highest chance - 3.1 percent - of hitting our home planet than scientists have ever measured. Earth's plan

Earth from Space: The shrinking Aral Sea

This new image from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope showcases NGC 346, a dazzling young star cluster in the Small Magellanic Cloud. The Small Magellanic Cloud is a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, located 210 000 light-years away in the constellation Tucana. The Small Magellanic Cloud is less rich in elements heavier than helium — what astronomers call metals — than the Milky Way. This makes conditions in the galaxy similar to what existed in the early Universe.

Although several images of NGC 346 have been released previously, this view includes new data and is the first to combine

An international research collaboration led by Rutgers University-New Brunswick has succeeded in integrating two highly unconventional quantum materials into a synthetic structure long considered unattainable, paving the way for advances in quantum computing and materials science. Featured on the cover of Nano Letters, the breakthrough emerged after four years of rigorous experimentation,

The used car market was once a jungle. Buyers wandered it blindfolded - guessing, trusting, hoping. They sniffed tires, tapped hoods, and squinted at dashboards. Still, they walked away with lemons. Sometimes polished. Sometimes cursed. But not anymore. Now, the most powerful ally doesn't stand on the lot. It lives in code. Silent. Systematic. Brutally honest. It's called the Vehicle

From a fiery origin to its slow expansion and eventual formation of structure, the Universe's evolution has long fascinated scientists. A key chapter in this story unfolded a few hundred million years after the Big Bang, when the earliest galaxies and stars began coalescing from vast reservoirs of primordial gas. Astronomers have detected galaxies dating back to less than 300 million years post-
