"This signifies a major development in astronomy and physics." Scientists may have "seen" dark matter for the first time, thanks to NASA's Fermi gamma-ray space telescope. If so, this would mark the ...

This is the first time Hayli Gubbi is known to have erupted in the Holocene — the present geological epoch that began at the end of the last ice age, around 11,700 years ago. Generally, if a volcano ...

A tiny black hole zipping through your body sounds like the kind of death dreamed up by a pulp-era sci-fi writer. Which, fittingly enough, it was. In 1974, Larry Niven imagined a murder carried out by ...

In 1919, physicist Theodor Kaluza hypothesized that extra dimensions might solve some outstanding problems in physics. And while we haven't found any evidence yet for anything outside our normal ...
