Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers discovered an extreme version of "little red dots" dubbed "The Cliff." Its light suggests that it could be a never-before-seen class of objects called ...

The highest energy neutrino ever detected from space may finally have an origin story. Mathematical analyses suggest that the ghost particle could’ve come from a theoretical object known as a ...

“The People’s Country Club,” they call it. But it’s only meant for people who are “highly skilled” at golf. A famous sign by the 1st tee even says so. That demographic — single-digit handicaps and ...
