Astronomers have spotted AT2025ulz, a rare dual explosion — a supernova and a kilonova — that may be the first-ever observed ...

Japanese researchers are pushing quantum technology to the point where it can register unimaginably small disturbances, ...

A superkilonova candidate event, named AT2025ulz, was observed in 2025; LIGO and Virgo first spotted gravitational waves, ...

Physicists are no longer content to simply listen to ripples in spacetime. A new proposal sketches out how an exquisitely ...

A double blast of dying stars may be the first observed case of a long-hypothesized, never proven “superkilonova.” Although astronomers are still searching for concrete answers, a study published in ...

A new concept for energy transfer between gravitational waves and light. When massive cosmic objects such as black holes merge or neutron stars crash into one another, they can produce gravitational ...

A physicist has proposed a bold experiment that could allow gravitational waves to be manipulated using laser light. By ...

A single atom as a movable slit: Researchers realize Einstein's thought experiment in original form, observing ...

A room-sized ring laser interferometer in Germany can track changes in the length of Earth’s day with millisecond precision. Precise measurements of the length of an Earth day are essential for ...

The 26-foot-tall (8-meter-tall) cargo lander is expected to embark on its first flight during the first quarter of 2026, ...

Astronomy and astrophysics are the study of objects and phenomena that are found beyond our solar system. This combines theoretical simulations and observation with both terrestrial and ...
