A team of archaeologists has unearthed oldest human fossils on the island of Flores in Indonesia. The fossils are expected to reveal key details about how the island got inhabited by human-like "hobbits" thousands of years ago.
Mediterranean food containing healthy fat does not automatically lead to increase in body weight.
The European Space Agency (ESA) has successful tested a technology that would capture gravitational waves in space. Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) Pathfinder mission conducted a near-perfect free fall experiment which scientists hope would enable them to detect and study hidden cosmic entities and celestial events in the future.
In a paper recently published in peer-reviewed Physical Review Letters, Stephen Hawking and his co-authors suggested that black holes may potentially lead to another universe. The paper contradicts the idea that black holes have ‘no hair’ saying that a so-called ‘halo of hair’ captures low-energy quantum excitations.
Researchers find in a new study that iPhone users hold on to their instruments for a much longer time.
For the first time, a huge black hole was found by researchers eating up cold gas.
Research shows that people who are married can survive heart attacks better than others who remain single, or get divorced.
Nobody can see a black hole because of a number of factors. It is a known fact that nothing gets out of a black hole, including light. Hawking radiation explains how anything that falls into a black hole gets heated up as it falls through it.
Mars has always been the primary center of attraction among a number of eminent scientists and astronomers from around the world. Reason? They wish to conquer the red planet and establish a Martian colony.
Flat ‘metalenses’ may soon redefine industries that rely on the current optical technology largely based on conventional curved lenses. The latest breakthrough churned out from one of Harvard University’s tech labs can magnify objects with 30% greater and more focused sharpness than most top-end microscopes.

A team of researchers from the Harvard University have designed an ultra-thin meta-lenses that could revolutionize each form of optics, including microscopes and contact lenses. The relatively new type of flat lenses can replace the curved glass optics that are currently used in almost all types of imaging appliances.
Slovenia has witnessed the once-in-a-decade birth of ‘rare baby dragons’ known as olms that is long been considered as the country’s national symbol for centuries. The fragile eel-like sightless creatures can reportedly go on without eating for about a decade.
