The landscape of “mountains” and “valleys” known as the Cosmic Cliffs is actually a portion of the nebula Gum 31, which contains a young star cluster called NGC 3324. Both Gum 31 and NGC 3324 are part ...

State-space models are AI designed to better understand long-term patterns in data, such as climate trends or biological signals. Unlike traditional models, they track how information evolves rather ...

Polynomials are equations in which a variable is raised to different powers, like 1 + 4x—3x² = 0 (a degree-two polynomial). These equations are essential in math and science, helping explain things ...

Phonons are energy waves that travel through crystal lattices via atomic vibrations. Often compared to ripples in a pond, phonons play a vital role in optoelectronic applications and tunable photonic ...

E-BAR is a robotic support system that follows users as they move, acting like handlebars for stability. It allows people to walk independently or lean for assistance, lifting them from sitting to ...

A new collaborative study conducted by NASA and Japan’s Toho University offers a glimpse into Earth’s distant future. It reveals that our oxygen-rich atmosphere, critical for complex life, won’t last ...

In the heart of an active galaxy, matter falling toward a supermassive black hole creates jets of particles traveling near the speed of light as shown in this artist’s concept. NASA/Goddard Space ...
