For decades, scientists assumed that life on Earth emerged through a chain of highly improbable flukes. But a new theory ...
Scientists challenge the idea that intelligent life is rare. They argue that evolution follows planetary changes, not random ...
A new study proposes intelligent life is more likely to emerge than previously thought, driven by planetary conditions.
Scientists have long overlooked white dwarfs as hosts for habitable exoplanets, assuming their lack of fusion would make life impossible. But new climate models challenge that idea, showing that ...
White dwarf stars could host habitable planets. Fast planetary rotation reduces cloud cover, keeping surface temperatures stable.
More pocked with craters than any other object in our solar system, Jupiter's outermost and second-biggest Galilean moon, Callisto, appears geologically unremarkable. In the 1990s, however, NASA's ...
A new study rewrites the story of human evolution, suggesting that intelligent life is not rare but a natural planetary ...
Saturn’s rings are an arresting sight even through modest telescopes. The planet is made mostly of hydrogen and helium whereas the rings are billions of pieces of mostly bright-white water ice and ...
NASA is offering paid internships for high school and college students in 2025 through the Office of STEM Engagement. These ...
Humanity may not be extraordinary but rather the natural evolutionary outcome for our planet and likely others, according to ...
NASA has worked on its own first contact protocols, conducting a 2024 workshop event about how best to communicate the ...
Life might be much more likely than we realised, scientists say – and it could help us find aliens - We might be much more normal than we thought ...
