For the second consecutive year, scientists predict that Arctic temperatures will continue to melt ice despite the fact that it is in the middle of the winter.
US-based scientists have witnessed, at the sub-micrometre scale in the laboratory, the birth of crystals that come up together to form atmospheric ice clouds. By replicating the various atmospheric conditions like temperature, pressure, and humidity in a chamber, scientists witnessed water vapor forming ice into a tiny mineral particle, a process known as heterogeneous ice nucleation.
Laser therapy has successfully been shown to destroy tumor cells which cause low-risk prostate cancer. The therapy was seen to cause only short-term urinary and erectile problems, which were resolved within three months.
Researchers claim that gargling Listerine could kill certain bacteria including Gonorrhea-causing pathogen.
Thousands of exoplanets have been detected outside our solar system. Some of them might even remind you of the fictional worlds in the "Star Wars" films, from icy worlds to arid, desert planets. In fact, NASA says that these fictional planets do exist.
Astronomers have finally revealed the world's largest digital survey of the universe, mapping out billions of stars and galaxies, thanks to the Pan-STARRS (Panoramic Survey Telescope & Rapid Response System) observatory.
Scientists have revealed for the first time that there is a powerful jet stream deep within the Earth's outer core, in the form of molten iron.
According to a new study led by optometrist Gary Heiting, all eyes are brown, and their colors appear to be different because of the presence of different amounts of pigment cells called melanocytes in the iris.
A team of researchers led by Google scientist Moritz Hardt has developed a test to detect any gender or racial bias introduced by Artificial Intelligence algorithms into the decision-making process. The approach is based on the concept that nothing about an individual's race or gender should be revealed by the decision, other than what can be extracted using input data.
During an important expedition under the Indian Ocean, scientists found six new species of the rarest marine creatures in the world living in hydrothermal vents.
