Hi! A strange little galaxy gives a glimpse of the beginnings of the universe

Astronomers have discovered that a strange dwarf galaxy that has been hidden for years in our cosmic neighborhood seems to belong to the early universe, although it was formed more recently. The tiny galaxy measuring just 1,200 light-years in diameter was given the nickname ‘Peekaboo’ because it was hidden in the bright glare of a …

'Holdout Humans': A chilling glimpse into our future if we survive another million years

‘Holdout Humans’: A chilling glimpse into our future if we survive another million years

Most species are transient. They die out, branch into new species, or change over time due to random mutations and environmental changes. A typical mammal species can be expected to exist for a million years. modern humans, A wise man, have been around for about 300,000 years. So what will happen if we reach a …

Micro Ring Resonator

New measurements provide a glimpse into the quantum future

The micro-ring resonator, shown here as a closed loop, generated high-dimensional photon pairs. The researchers examined these photons by manipulating the phases of different frequencies, or colors, of light and mixing frequencies, as shown by the criss-crossing multicolored lines.
