After nearly 11 months in orbit, the astronaut holding the record for the longest spaceflight by a woman can’t wait to dig into some salsa and chips, and swim and surf in the Gulf of Mexico.
Previous work suggested the meteorites ran into oxygen, contradicting theories and evidence that the Earth's early atmosphere was virtually devoid of oxygen.
Researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) in the US analysed the before-and-after photos of 100 female patients, aged 16 to 72, all of whom underwent rhinoplasty for cosmetic reasons.
Climate change and pressure from human activity is causing a collapse in global biodiversity and ecosystems across the tropics, according to a study published on Monday.
Bacteria living in household dust can spread genes that provide antibiotics countering ability to others, according to a study that may lead to new interventions to tackle drug resistance in microbes.
Researchers have developed the first flexible electronic chip made of magnetic sensors and organic, polymer-based circuits, an advance which paves the way for the development of artificial skin.
The entire set of human emotions can be traced to the functioning of a small 3-centimeter area on the brain's outer layer, cortex, according to a study that may unlock mysteries about illnesses like depression and phobia.
An international team of astronomers has detected large amounts of oxygen in the atmosphere of one of the oldest and most elementally depleted stars ever known - a discovery that will help scientists better understand the earliest seeding of oxygen and other elements throughout the young universe.
Astronomers have discovered a vampire star which is in the midst of a feeding frenzy, 3,000 light-years away from the earth. In the recent discovery, it was also found that this white dwarf star near the constellation of Scorpius is gorging on much smaller brown dwarf companion.
India, today successfully test-fired the 3,500 km strike range K-4 submarine-launched ballistic missile off the coast of Visakhapatnam.The DRDO-developed missile was testfired from an underwater platform today morning.
Scientists have discovered four new species of sharks that can walk around on the ocean floor, following a 12-year study of marine life in the waters between northern Australia and New Guinea. All four species appear to have evolved fairly recently, according to findings published in the journal Marine and Freshwater Research.

OSIRIS-REx's primary goal in the Nightingale flyover was to collect the high-resolution imagery required to complete the spacecraft's Natural Feature Tracking image catalog
The scientists used an X-ray device called a computed tomography (CT) scan to perform a detailed analysis of Nesyamun’s intact mouth and throat. They then recreated the mummy's voice box, or larynx, using 3D printing -- a process which builds a three-dimensional object from a computer-aided design model, usually by adding material layer by layer.
Superluminous supernovae are the brightest explosions in the cosmos. Over a few months, they radiate as much energy as the Sun does over its entire lifetime, reaching a peak brightness exceeding that of an entire galaxy. The origin of this energy, and what kind of stellar progenitor system has exploded, are still unclear.
Little over 2 years after its launch, Interstellar Lab has unveiled an experimental Bioregenerative station (EBIOS), a potential-Mars settlement village on trial basis. It will open for public in 2021. The station will also be used as a research center for astronauts training.
It would not be correct to say ice melt has not taken place before in Antarctica, NASA said. Satellite images, often partially obscured by clouds, show periodic melt since it was first visible in Landsat imagery in January 1973.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) aims to execute the Gaganyaan mission by 2022. Here's a peek into a prototype of the crew module at ISRO.
China announced that it will launch its first Mars mission probe in July this year, China Youth Daily reported on Thursday. This is the first time the country disclosed the launch month of its Mars exploration programme, according to the newspaper which cited sources from the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC).
The likely presence of hydrothermal vents inside Enceladus could be seen as another phenomenon that contributes to this. At Earth's ocean floor, hydrothermal vents emit hot, energy-rich, mineral-laden fluids that allow unique ecosystems teeming with unusual creatures to thrive.
