Called CubeSats, swarms of these small marvels could potentially take on NASA's riskiest missions, at a lower cost than full-size, multi-instrument satellites

Researchers' work proposes an approach that challenges conventional wisdom

Scientists at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) have made an object disappear by using a material with nano-size particles that can enhance specific properties on the object’s surface

$10 million grant supports international team’s efforts

The first high-resolution images of the gas giant Jupiter are still a few weeks away

Aalto University researchers have broken the world record by fourteen fold in the energy resolution of thermal photodetection

Research results could impact future operation of sensors in areas ranging from national security to Earth system science

The orbit of such a planet had been expected to be unstable, probably resulting in the planet being quickly ejected from the system, but somehow this one survives

Mass spectrometry unveiled secrets of how time influences oil found in ancient amphora

“Independence Day always is something to celebrate, but today we can add to America’s birthday another reason to cheer—Juno is at Jupiter."

"We created a MOF that absorbs the phosphonates found in pesticides and nerve gases. This means you can use it to find traces of chemical weapons such as sarin or to identify the residue of pesticides on food"

Results will also be used to understand basic questions about nature such as the cooling mechanisms of the early universe and the formation of planets and stars
