An object spotted with help of citizen scientists was moving so fast through the Milky Way that it could escape the gravity of the galaxy and reach intergalactic space, new research has found. Likely ...

Galaxies, planets, black holes: to most people, everything about our Universe sounds and feels enormous. But while it's true ...

Aug. 15 (UPI) --Backyard stargazers have discovered an object moving at more than a million mph through space, an interstellar phenomenon that typically takes the resources of high-tech observatories, ...

Physicists have figured out how to move an object in three dimensions without the need for any physical contact, just by the clever use of magnets. Magnetic Levitation, MagLev for short, is the ...

DENVER — Small but rowdy space rocks pushing and jostling one another may have created the unusual orbits some astronomers cite as the signature of the hypothesized "Planet Nine," a new study suggests ...

From the fall of an apple to the glow of the farthest known star, gravity quietly choreographs almost everything that happens ...

'Odd' objects that adapt and move without a brain (w/video) Inspired by how brainless lifeforms such as starfish and slime moulds move around, physicists have constructed 'odd' objects that ...

A: We recognize that an asteroid or comet is interstellar from its trajectory. The trajectory of an object is computed by comparing precise measurements of its changing position on the sky to the ...

Augmented reality is a difficult proposition, both in the methods used to do it right and the resources required to do it at all. A new AR system from Gravity Jack makes some serious advances in the ...
