A newly discovered, faint radio emission, the Hectometric Continuum, emerges only after sunset and pulses through Earth's upper atmosphere for several hours. This natural radiation, undetectable from ...

Indonesian authorities are conducting a criminal investigation into the cause of radioactive contamination in a number of its exports. It comes amid growing concern from the country's trading partners ...

Hawking radiation suggests that black holes are not completely black but emit faint radiation and decay over time. The idea involves virtual particles that spontaneously appear and disappear due to ...

A warning made about AI technology by British theoretical physicist and cosmologist Professor Stephen Hawking in 2014 has grabbed attention as multiple videos made by OpenAI’s Sora 2 technology go ...

OpenAI is capitalizing on bad taste with its new text-to-video generator, Sora 2. The new app allows users to share AI-generated videos on a TikTok-style feed. If you hoped that people would be using ...

A fresh black hole merger detection has offered the clearest evidence yet for Einstein’s relativity and Hawking’s predictions. Scientists tracked the complete cosmic collision, confirming that black ...

Back in 1971, the late physicist Stephen Hawking made an intriguing prediction: The total surface area of a black hole cannot decrease, only increase or remain stable. So if two black holes combine, ...
