The Met Office produces nearly 300 text-based weather products, all drafted by human meteorologists. Now it's been testing whether AI could handle some of that heavy lifting, but can it replicate the job?
A team of scientists in Japan reckon they've found a way to change how we capture carbon, with a redesigned material that needs barely any heat to work
Hidden in Ecuador’s forests, a newly discovered glassfrog dazzles with translucent skin and mystery—hinting at vast, unseen biodiversity while quietly facing potential threats from human activity nearby.
NASA plans missions focused on launches of satellites designed to gather atmospheric and geologic data from above. The missions are an adjustment from the previously-planned Atmosphere Observing System initiative.
Tracking how marine ecosystems have changed over decades is difficult when reliable historical samples are hard to come by. A team of researchers in the US found an unlikely solution sitting in a Seattle warehouse
Population growth, increased urbanization, better wages and increased consumption is driving an increase in municipal waste, but what does this mean for the planet?
They are rare, almost invisible, and only appear when the atmosphere is combined in a very particular way. What makes them different and in what situations can they be found?
In a new paper published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, researchers describe a new species of ancient animal after discovering eight fossils in a dry river bed in Brazil.
A new method breaks down acrylic using chemical, rather than thermal, methods but what benefits does it offer over traditionally used recycling methods, and what does it mean for the environment?
Astronaut Christina Koch paves the way for women scientists as the first woman to travel to the Moon
The American astronaut, electrical engineer and physicist has made history by becoming the first woman to travel to the Moon, a milestone that goes beyond science and opens up new opportunities in space exploration for future generations of researchers.
Scientists uncover a fossil site revealing diverse early animals existed before the Cambrian Explosion, suggesting complex life evolved earlier than believed and offering new insights into evolutionary history.
