The long, sharp, blade-like canines found in many extinct predators evolved at least five times throughout history.
Mounting evidence suggests the rubble of an asteroid once formed a ring orbiting our planet’s equator.
The evidence is clear – without a concerted effort to mitigate climate change, the world will continue to face catastrophic weather events that threaten both lives and ecosystems.
New research reveals how water containing the antidepressant Prozac affects male guppies, raising concerns about the health of aquatic ecosystems exposed to pharmaceutical pollution.
Low awareness of the link between heat and eco-anxiety in Indonesia requires a more comprehensive strategy in the campaign.
Gold nuggets grow much bigger than they should – and electricity produced by earthquakes may be the reason why.
Enigmatic organisms called archaea can harvest energy from hydrogen, and new research is revealing exactly how they do it.
Australia has just listed Indigenous knowledge among its science priorities – after First Nations knowledge has long gone uncredited in Western “discoveries”, such as life-changing drugs.
The Sensory Science concept grew from the aim to “bring the beauty of the microscope to life for the low-vision and blind community”, and make science more accessible.
Invasive alien species become much harder and more expensive to manage as they establish and spread through the landscape, so preventing their arrival is vital.
The sad case of the Norfolk Island morepork shows we need a way to control or eradicate invasive rodents without killing native species.
Research shows that societal cooperation, typical in humans, is also found in the tiny songbird found in our local parks and gardens.

Being susceptible to visual illusions is part and parcel of life not just for humans, but many other species – including bees.
Three consecutive extremely low sea ice summers strengthens the case for a new regime in Antarctic sea ice.
We crave certainty in our weather forecasts. But that’s only possible for big weather events such as cyclones and major storms. Everything else is probability.
A telescope can reveal so much of the night sky, including Saturn’s rings and the Moon’s craters, but choosing the right telescope is a difficult decision. Here’s what you need to know.
Do all big black holes in very massive galaxies emit radio waves? Scientists used the latest radio telescopes to find out.
