First black holes may have incubated in giant, starlike cocoons
The formation process involved two stages, said Mitchell Begelman, a professor and the chair of CU-Boulder's astrophysical and planetary sciences department. The predecessors to black hole format...

Read moreNew hydrogen-storage method discovered
The discovery paves the way for an entirely new way to approach the hydrogen-storage problem. The researchers found that the normally unreactive, noble gas xenon combines with molecular hydrogen (H2) ...
Life Sciences | Read moreRich ore deposits linked to ancient atmosphere
Using geochemical clues from rocks nearly 3 billion years old, a group of scientists including Andrey Bekker and Doug Rumble from the Carnegie Institution have made the surprising discovery that the c...
Earth Sciences | Read moreTicking Stellar Time Bomb Identified
Using ESO’s Very Large Telescope and its ability to obtain images as sharp as if taken from space, astronomers have made the first time-lapse movie of a rather unusual shell ejected by a “vampire star...
Physics and Astronomy | Read moreESA spacecraft may help unravel cosmic mystery
Since 1990, scientists and mission controllers at ESA and NASA have noticed that their spacecraft sometimes experience a strange variation in the amount of orbital energy they exchange with Earth duri...

Sunspots, which rotate around the sun's surface, tell us a great deal about our own planet. Scientists rely on them, for instance, to measure the sun's rotation or to prepare long-range fore...
Earth Sciences | Read moreA glimpse at the Earth's crust deep below the Atlantic
Long-term variations in volcanism help explain the birth, evolution and death of striking geological features called oceanic core complexes on the ocean floor, says geologist Dr Bram Murton of the Nat...

The team, funded by a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant, collected data Oct. 4 through Oct. 11 to document the impacts of the 8.1 earthquake and the ensuing tsunami that occurred on Sept. 29. Th...
Earth Sciences | Read moreFollow Rosetta’s final Earth boost
This will be the third Earth swingby, the last of Rosetta’s four planetary gravity assists. Closest approach to Earth is expected at 08:45 CET (07:45 UT). The swingby will provide exactly the boost Ro...
Physics and Astronomy | Read moreA new wrinkle in ancient ocean chemistry
Scientists widely accept that around 2.4 billion years ago, the Earth's atmosphere underwent a dramatic change when oxygen levels rose sharply. Called the "Great Oxidation Event" (GOE),...
Earth Sciences | Read moreNew Celestial Map Gives Directions for GPS
The system works well, and millions rely on it every day, but what tells the GPS satellites where they are in the first place? "For GPS to work, the orbital position, or ephemeris, of the...
