In this visualization, as the supersonic solar wind (yellow haze) flows around the Earth’s magnetic field (blue wavy lines), it forms a highly turbulent boundary layer called the ‘magnetosheath’ (yellow swirling area). A new...
This illustration shows the NANOGrav project observing cosmic objects called pulsars in an effort detect gravitational waves – ripples in the fabric of space. The project is seeking a low-level gravitational wave background signal...
Neutron star fusions are extremely interesting phenomena. The research team analyzes how the signs of a future collision differ from the observations of gravitational wave observatories. To date, only two very probable gravitational wave...
The FAST, or Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope, is, as the name implies, the world’s largest uniform radio telescope with a diameter of 500 meters and an area. Photo by Xu Liu / Xinhua...
