Milky Way Over Abandoned Kilns, NGC 2403 in Camelopardalis, Noctilucent Clouds Over Edmonton, Atlantis Farewell from Parkes
A group of physicists at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology found out that a single photon cannot travel faster than the speed of light in vacuum. The study reaffirms Einstein's theory that nothing travels faster than light, and most sadly, proves the impossibility of achieving the humanity's dream of time travel.
Researchers from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology have determined time travel is impossible.
Researchers at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) say they will figure out if Higgs boson is real or not by the end of 2012.
The largest body of water to date -- anywhere in the universe -- has been discovered in space, with mass measuring several trillion times the water on the whole of planet Earth.
Researchers have found the largest body of water anywhere in the universe, to date, with mass that measures several trillion times the mass of water on the entire planet Earth.
A group of scientists have found volcanoes on the far side of the moon, which suggests activity much more recent than previously thought.
Just a few decades ago, the Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming routinely saw no big wildfires in a given year.
The celebrated vastness of Earth's oceans looks more like a droplet compared to a remote supermassive blackhole that contains 140 trillion times as much water.
The future of NASA is all about deep space exploration now.
While cranberries are a well-known combatant for bladder infections, a new Dutch study shows that antibiotics are twice as effective for treating and preventing recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI).
So far, there have been 97 reported cases of illness resulting from an outbreak of Salmonella Agona, ten of which involved individuals being hospitalized, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said.
The Texas company is voluntarily recalling the FDA detected salmonella matching the outbreak strain. Salmonella can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in children and elderly with weakened immune systems.
According to a recent study, between 2002 and 2007, the annual average number of chickenpox deaths was the lowest ever reported, with 14 deaths recorded in 2007 and just 13 the year prior, due to a particular vaccine. Chickenpox led to about 105 deaths a year during the pre-vaccine years of 1990 to 1994, researchers say.
Is Alaska's Cleveland Volcano ready to erupt? Recent satellite images from the remote volcano suggest it might be, scientists say.
Astronomers have found a massive water vapor cloud floating around a black hole in the universe.
U.S. health regulators on Monday warned people not to eat Mexican-grown papayas from Texas distributor Agromod Produce Inc., as they investigate a possible link to a salmonella outbreak in 23 states. So far, the outbreak of Salmonella Agona has resulted in 97 reported cases of illness, ten of which involved individuals being hospitalized, across the country, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said.
In a recent study, researchers analyzed ways to lower the male sperm count. Male contraceptives are gaining interest from a number of scientists, who believe they hold promise for being safe, effective and, in fact, reversible, if researched and attempted.
Scientists are in a race to develop a male birth control pill that can become a new contraceptive alternative to condoms.
They were hunted and fished illegally.
A humongous body of water floating in the universe in the ancient time was discovered, and the sight has taken 12 billion years to reach our eyes.
New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation employes the latest medical simulation technology to improve patient safety outcomes in the city's public hospitals.
The Gulf Dead Zone is the biggest ever this year. It's about 3,300 square miles right now, or roughly the size of Delaware and Rhode Island combined, but researchers at Texas A&M University say it's likely to become much larger, TG Daily reported.
Curiosity is planned to launch later this year and land in August 2012.
Scientists working at Europe's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) reported on Friday that they detected what is believed to be the first glimpse of the Higgs boson, or "God particle".
Astromomers found the largest reservoir of water ever discovered in space, which measures 140 trillion times the earth's ocean water. It is also the farthest reservoir of water discovered in the universe, according to two teams of researchers.

Mars Rover Curiosity will launch from earth in late 2011. By August 2012, it’s expected to land on Mars. Then, it’s expected to conduct a 2-year study of the red planet.
More than one in three births in the U.S. are now delivered by C-section, an increase to an all-time high of 25 percent over seven years, according to a new study.
The water measured in the quasar is in the form of vapor and is the largest mass of water ever found, the researchers said. The amount of water estimated to be in the quasar is at least 100,000 times the mass of the sun, and is equivalent to 34 billion times the mass of the Earth.
