The women, on the other hand, were fine.

Powering cold, hard mechanics with muscle tissue is a promising idea that so far hasn't delivered awe-inspiring results.

Dark matter, or at least a portion of it, could be carrying an incredibly weak electrical force - equal to about a millionth of an electron's charge. That's according to data from the Experiment to Detect the Global Epoch of Reionisation Signa

A rare and endangered blue whale has been spotted in the Gulf of Aqaba in the Red Sea, the Egyptian Ministry of Environment has reported, the first time that the largest of all the animals has been seen in these waters.

We haven't found any evidence of life on the 3,730 confirmed exoplanets identified to date. Maybe we've just been looking in the wrong place?

Whenever you see blood outside your body, it looks red. Why?

The incredible gravitational wave event that gave us colliding neutron stars and pictures of colliding neutron stars is the astronomical gift that just keeps on giving. And it looks like it's given us yet another new thing to study - the lowest-mas

Human eyes are not usually thought of as the best of the best in the animal kingdom. Cats can see really well in the dark, and some spiders have 12 eyes to stare back at you.

In the far reaches of the Solar System, objects go into some weird orbits, and astronomers have been baffled as to why.

Using the whole Solar System as a lab, and our most advanced time-keeping instruments for equipment, scientists have helped to verify the 'Einstein elevator' hypothesis – one of the central components of his general theory of relativity.

NASA's New Horizons probe - the same one that gave us stunning photos of Pluto - has just woken up, approximately 6 billion kilometres (3.7 billion miles) from home.

A few clipped neuropeptides make all the difference between a chill honey bee and one that has an irritable need to shiv anything that moves.

We learn about some awesome science in high school - like Einstein's theory of relativity, the Periodic table, and DNA replication.

Between 1971 and 1977, Apollo scientists conducting experiments on the Moon discovered that the surface of our li'l satellite buddy got mysteriously warmer. But the data from 1974 onwards went missing, and the strange warming phenomenon remained an enigma.…

One of the best-known regions of the brain, the cerebellum accounts for just 10 percent of the organ's total volume, but contains more than 50 percent of its neurons. Despite all that processing power, it's been assumed that the cerebellum functions largely…
