A Breakthrough Listen survey was thought to have covered about 288,000 stars catalogued by Gaia. But a new simulation of the Milky Way estimates that more than 6.18 million stars actually fell within its radio-telescope beams—millions of potential world

Sheep wool was mixed into clay soil along with alginate, a polymer taken from the cell walls of brown seaweed, and the blocks were left to air-dry rather than fired. Adding wool fibre increased compressive strength by 37 percent, and combining wool with a

Planets larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune are extraordinarily common around other stars, yet our solar system has none. New solar-evolution modelling offers a dramatic possibility: the young Sun may have swallowed a rocky planet five to ten times

Permanently shadowed craters near the Moon’s poles may preserve water ice that future crews could turn into oxygen and hydrogen-based rocket propellant, potentially supporting lunar bases and eventual Mars expeditions. NASA and IBM have now released an

Mars’s surface has long been divided between northern lowlands and southern highlands, but its deep interior was generally modelled as roughly symmetrical. Now a Caltech-led team publishing in Nature has inferred that the mantle beneath the southern hig
