The path of 14C from cosmic rays to cellulose. Green arrows denote newer pools of 14C and brown arrows denote older pools. The size of the arrow reflects best estimates of size of the carbon pool.

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The first step on the moon was one of humanity's most exciting accomplishments. Now scientists are planning return trips – and ...

At times, the sun ejects energetic material into space, which can have consequences for space-based and even ground-based electronic technology. Researchers aim to understand this phenomenon and find ...

LHAASO has uncovered that micro-quasars, black holes feeding on companion stars, are powerful PeV particle accelerators. Their jets produce ultra-high-energy gamma rays and protons that exceed ...

For years, astronomers have searched for the origins of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays, the most powerful particles in the universe. These energetic travelers move at nearly the speed of light, packing ...
